The Department of Homeland Security's press people are planning a busy week, for the four days of November 15-18, Tuesday through Friday.
They plan to have a batch of news events today (Tuesday), to be followed by a busy November 16, and a busy November 17, and a busy November 18, Friday.
Then, if you look at the "Media Advisory" for this week, which I received by e-mail, they will next revisit Wednesday, the 16th, with two conference speeches in Las Vegas, followed by revisiting three events on Thursday, the 17th, and a bunch of activities on Friday, the 18th, from Laredo to Boston.
This will be followed by a return to those media events at the Mirage Hotel and the Rio All-Suites Hotel, in Las Vegas, again on Wednesday, November 16, the Thursday, November 17 activities in Arlington, Virginia, and then on Capitol Hill, and, yet again, conclude the week at a "special children's citizenship ceremony at the Connecticut State Capitol Building," on Friday, November 18. But this time the previously-scheduled events in Boston and Laredo will be dropped, or have been dropped. . . it is a little confusing.
As a one-time pressie myself, I know errors can happen, but they are usually a single word or statistic, but this time the cut-and-paste folks at the DHS press office outdid themselves.
How do I know it was cut-and-paste? Because in the original, some of the events were described in one type face, and some in another.
Maybe what happened was that the pressies were drafted to do on-the-ground interior immigration enforcement and could not spend the time getting the schedule straight. On second thought, probably not.
