DHS is too busy playing grab ass and creating hostile work environments for the men that work there to have time to do any real work.

Major league baseball can tell you how many right handed batters hit a ground ball while batting 5th in the order, with one runner on second base, facing a left handed pitcher, in a night game at home. For the last 50 years.

Why can't Homeland Security track a few million people who enter the country but overstay their visa?

Fire the NSA spies sitting online all day.

How is it that this country has ZERO priorities. DHS is not to be trusted. They have beaucuop bucks for ammo , but cant do their jobs.

Sickening.

Mostly because US immigration authorities are bumbling incompetents, but partly because there are practical difficulties. Sure, you do the photo/fingerprint thing when you enter, but nobody does much of anything when you're leaving. Some nice but overworked airline employee swipes your passport, your boarding pass is scanned, and that's all the data capture that takes place, at least in airports.
