In addition to the scare tactics being employed by DHS chief Janat Napollitano, the DHS also is warning that in response to possible sequestration cuts The Department of Homeland Security plans to release 10,000 illegal aliens from detention centers citing the unaffordability of maintaining the jails, while simultaneously building new detention centers for illegal aliens that cost tens of millions of dollars.  

Despite the fact that the budget cuts, which have been decried as apocalyptic by talking heads in the government and the media, will result in a mere 6% drop in non-entitlement government spending, the DHS has, “started releasing illegal immigrants being held in immigration jails across the country,” a week before the budget cuts even go into effect, reports AP.

Again this is a big old WHAT IF scenario, but notice how they can only give the absolute "worst case scenario" but don't really call it that!  You have to love this administrations "All or nothing at all" stance on...well, everything!
