Sen. Kennedy on the Firing of Kristi Noem: ‘Immigration Used To Be Our Strongest Issue, It’s Not Right Now’

EXCERPT:

KENNEDY: “Well, I can’t speak for them. I play outside the pocket. I will never completely fit in, which I consider to be one of my best qualities. I’m very Frank. Sometimes some people might think to a fault. I have the right to remain silent, not the ability. That’s my job as a senator. And I’m not the only one that has these concerns. And the White House has had some concerns for a while. Will, it’s not personal. I’m very fond of Kristi. But the problems, and many more are going to be discussed, at the Department were distracting from our agenda and the president’s agenda. Immigration used to be our strongest issue, it’s clearly not right now.”
