8. She had to go

Her testimony yesterday was an embarrassment.

Now, let's hear about every one of those agents who were on duty when the guy went over the fence. Fire every single one of them except the guy walking out, off the clock, who stopped the guy.

the Democrats in Congress for not demanding better protection?
