The Department of Homeland Security was severely neglected and behind on necessary standards for protecting the country before her tenure.

“many times in government um and especially in this department which was extremely neglected, we we were just behind and not up to the standard we should be at.”

Two weeks is a sufficient amount of time to conduct serious negotiations regarding funding and restrictions for the Department of Homeland Security.

“Two weeks are enough and only for negotiations. Serious negotiations. I've been around Washington for a few years and I can tell you if you want to get the job done, two weeks is more than enough time.”
