Liberal activist groups are making a concerted effort to ensure that Kirstjen Nielsen’s deeds as homeland security secretary follow her out of office. Advocacy groups such as Restore Public Trust say Nielsen should be held accountable for supporting the Trump administration’s family separation policy and the president’s immigration stance in general. And Nielsen hasn’t sought to distance herself from Trump, even after being pushed out of her post. “I share the president’s goal of securing the border,” Nielsen said to reporters Monday. Liberal groups have begun pressuring companies not to hire Nielsen and other Trump officials who backed the policy of family separation.
