As ignorant as she is untruthful

“No one has lost their status,” DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said [in her testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee], incorrectly. “No one will lose their status until March 5 or later.”

Contrary to frequent and incorrect reporting that DACA will end on March 5, young people whose work authorizations expired before then actually began losing DACA status after Oct. 5 of last year, the Trump administration’s new deadline to reapply to renew one’s authorization. Many more DACA recipients were ineligible to renew their DACA applications in the first place, because their work permits expired after March 5.

The Hill reported on Jan. 10 that 15,000 people had lost their status since Sept. 5, citing unnamed immigration activists. Sen. Dianne Feinstein used the same number last week. According to the Center for American Progress’ running estimate, 16,166 have lost DACA status between Sept. 5 and Tuesday.

Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) explained the situation to Nielsen, who had earlier claimed incorrectly that only DACA recipients who had been convicted of crimes had lost their status.

[...]

"These are the young people who have lost DACA status, 15,000 of them."

“I will get back to you on that, ma’am,” Secretary Nielsen said. “I am not familiar with 15,000 who have lost their status. As I understand it, the program ends March 5.”

Or maybe it wasn't ignorance, but just more lies. However, she also said she didn't know if Norway was mostly white, but she assumed it was, so I'm going with ignorance and lies. Just like the rest of the Trump administration.
