WASHINGTON, D.C. - While the clash between President Donald
‘Trump and acting Attorney General Sally Yates conquered headlines
Monday night, a Wall Street Journal report suggests that the White
House may be on a collision course with Trump's Secretary of
Homeland Security John Kelly.
‘The former Marines General, chosen by Trump for the post in part
because of his military experience, is reportedly "frustrated" over
how the White House managed the roll-out of Friday's executive
order banning the citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries from
entering the United States. Kelly
order's contents, and was not able to prepare his agency
accordingly.
vas not informed in advance of the
According to the Journal's report, "Trump signed the executive
order that created the ban late Friday afternoon. Mr. Kelly was only
informed of the details that day as he was traveling to Washington,
even though he had pressed the White House for days to share with
him the final language.” As Kelly received angry calls from
lawmakers over the weekend (including two from Senate Minority
Leader Chuck Schumer), he wasn't updated on the nec
details.

In addition, the report claims that White House officials pushed to
nominate Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, an immigration
hard-liner, as Kelly's deputy. Kelly managed to push back against
those attempts, explaining that he preferred to choose someone
with relevant experience in homeland security. Still, Kobach's
supporters in the White House - perhaps including other
immigration hardliners like Stephen Bannon and Stephen Miller ~
did not easily give up.
Kelly and Trump additionally fail to see eye-to-eye on the use of
torture as part of interrogations. While Kelly said during his,
confirmation hearing that it is a line that shouldn't be eros:
‘Trump in recent days has talked about re-authorizing
torture techniques, adding that he had no doubt that torture works.
He did, however, say that any decision on the issue would ultimately
be at the hands of Defense Secretary James Mattis, who is clear!
against it.
