In reply to the discussion: Psychiatrists call for Trump to undergo a full 'neuropsychological evaluation' [View all]littlemissmartypants
(33,910 posts)40. That wasn't an just an aide to his left.
It is our "acting" Homeland Security Director Kevin Kealoha McAleenan. He's an attorney. He graduated from Amherst College and needs to return his Presidential Rank Award effective immediately, imo.
McAleenan practiced law in the private sector from 1998 until 2001, when terrorist attacks that September motivated him to apply to work for the FBI. He was recruited to help start up the new CBP Office of Antiterrorism, eventually becoming its executive director.[1]
In 2006, he became CBP's area director of Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).[9] During his time as the port director of LAX, he was responsible for the security operations for that airport as well as 17 other airport facilities.[8] After two years in private consulting, McAleenan returned to CBP in 2010, leading field operations. In 2011 McAleenan became the assistant commissioner of the Customs and Border Protection, Office of Field Operations.[8] [10] In this position he was in charge of airport operations and was responsible for securing the US border while ensuring lawful trade and travel at 329 ports of entry in the United States of America, as well as 70 locations in more than 40 countries.[8]
McAleenan served as deputy commissioner of Customs and Border Protection from 2014 to 2017.
