Give Kris Kobach whatever he wants if he can fix the asylum scam

Published May 21, 2019 1:50pm ET



If former Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach actually thinks he can fix the asylum insanity at the southern border in a matter of just six months, then he deserves whatever he wants from the administration.

Kobach is apparently so confident in his capability that when President Trump asked him about possibly serving as his “immigration czar,” Kobach submitted a list of conditions to be met in order for him to accept the job. According to the New York Times, included on the list were access to a private government jet, weekends off, and a “promise” that Trump nominate Kobach as Department of Homeland Security secretary by Nov. 1 of this year.
