Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin did not accept the usual press conference dodge about illegal truckers.
Standing with Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy in Detroit on Monday, he was asked, in effect, to treat a small percentage of wrecks as if that settled the argument.
Mullin refused.
“Every single illegal that maims or kills an individual is 100 percent preventable,” he said in a clip posted by DHS and amplified on his own account.
