The challenges facing the next Secretary of the Department of
Homeland Security are daunting. Our national debt exceeds $20 trillion,
and there is, unfortunately, no serious effort to reduce the 30-year
projected deficits, which exceed more than $100 trillion. In the last few months, we have experienced unprecedented destruction
from natural disasters, stressing the budgets of both HHS and FEMA. Our
borders are not secure, allowing illegal immigration to persist,
illicit drugs to flow unabated, and making us vulnerable to external
forces. Meanwhile, our enemies are emboldened. The threat of Islamist terrorism has evolved, metastasized, and
spread throughout the world, even reaching our homeland.
