Michael Cutler – Interview – Piscopo In The Morning 2-20-18 AM 970 …

Joe Piscopo interviews Michael Cutler, Retired Senior INS Agent

Trump’s Shaky ‘Immigration Pillars’ Will Compromise National Security.

The issue never discussed in the mainstream media is that this same dysfunctional and inept bureaucracy of the DHS would be responsible for providing DACA aliens with lawful status in addition to its already overwhelming workload of adjudicating approximately six million applications for a wide variety of immigration benefits that include applications for political asylum, lawful immigrant status and United States citizenship.

While there should be no debate about the need to secure the U.S/Mexican border against unlawful entry of aliens and contraband, the utter lack of integrity to the process by which applications for immigration benefits and the “Keys to the Kingdom” that they provide to millions of aliens each and every year poses no less a threat to national security and public safety.

While so much attention has been called to the vetting process for Americans who wish to purchase firearms, an issue that must be taken seriously, no one has challenged the vetting process for aliens who seek to enter and reside in the United States even though the 9/11 Commission, to which I provided testimony, made it clear that immigration fraud that went undetected by multiple failures of this system have repeatedly enabled terrorists to gain entry into the United States and embed themselves so that they could easily hide in plain sight as they went about their deadly preparations.

In the years since 9/11 a series of additional terror attacks were only possible because of continuing failures of this dysfunctional and inept bureaucracy.

Nevertheless, President Trump and all too many of our political leaders, from both parties, are chomping at the proverbial bit to use this dysfunctional, beleaguered and overwhelmed system to “solve” the issue of DACA.  This system would be enlisted to vet millions of illegal aliens who entered the United States without inspection to evade the vetting process, inept and flawed as it is, conducted at ports of entry.

Because of the huge number of applications, virtually no in-person interviews could be conducted and no field investigations could be conducted.

What could possibly go wrong?

The aliens who would be eligible to participate in this program would be citizens of countries from around the world and entered the United States surreptitiously without inspection.

Their actual dates of entry and even their identities and backgrounds, would be all but impossible to determine or verify. 

The potential damage that this program could do to national security would be inestimable and irrevocable.  Once begun President Trump’s amnesty could not be turned off.  

The only question that come to my mind is “Why?”  Why would the President want to create a program that flies in the face of all of his strong statements about the need to gain control over America’s borders and restore integrity to the immigration system.  Why would the President begin a negotiation by offering to create a program that defies the findings and recommendations of the 9/11 Commission as well as his own campaign promises?

Does President Trump not understand the true potential magnitude of this program he appears determined to create, both from the perspective of the numbers of aliens who might participate and the inherent risks caused by the inability of DHS to effectively screen these illegal aliens? 

These are the questions that the administration and members of Congress must answer!

Ignorance is not bliss.  Knowledge is power so my article provides some cold hard facts for you to consider and hopefully share with others.

If you like my article I ask that you make a point of posting it on FaceBook and other social media and forward this e-mail to as many folks as you can.  It is important to dispel the lies and nonsense about the true nature and significance of effective immigration law enforcement in this particularly perilous era.

Being “Pro-Enforcement” is not “Anti-Immigrant.”  Indeed, advocates for immigration anarchy are actually taking an “Anti-Immigrant” position by obfuscating the line that separates lawful immigrants from illegal aliens.  To provide a bit of clarity, while we are indeed a “Nation of immigrants” America is not a nation of trespassers.  The difference between an immigrant and an illegal alien is comparable to the difference between a houseguest and a burglar.

Americans must be willing to stand their ground and not be intimidated by the false accusations- far too much hangs in the balance!  We must speak out against mayors and governors who create “Sanctuary Cities” and “Sanctuary States.”

Many people have come to complain that we have become too “Politically Correct” to speak the truth about important issues.  My view is that the artful use of language that has been described as examples of political correctness are in fact, examples of Orwellian “Newspeak.” 

Having invoked George Orwell, it is appropriate to consider a couple of his brilliant quotes:

Political language — and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists — is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.

In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

I addressed the way that control of language leads to thought control and ultimately a loss of our freedoms in my article for the current edition of The Social Contract:

“Language Wars: The Road to Tyranny Is Paved with Language Censorship”

On November 15, 2014 I was honored to join three true leaders in the United States Congress in a panel discussion on immigration- then-U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions and Congressmen Louis Gohmert and John Fleming.  A video of this panel discussion has been posted on the David Horowitz Freedom Center’s website under the title,  “IMMIGRATION WARS: An all-star panel takes on America’s immigration crisis at Restoration Weekend.”

 

The video has also been posted on YouTube under the title- “Immigration Wars.”

The perspectives of these true leaders are well worth listening to.

To provide you with a bit of additional material, during my remarks at the panel discussion, I referenced my June 22, 2007 Op-Ed for the Washington Times, Immigration bill a ‘No Go’ that focused on my concerns about the previous attempt to enact Comprehensive Immigration Reform.  Senator Jeff Sessions quoted from my commentary, on three separate dates, from the floor of the U.S. during the contentious floor debates in 2007 when Comprehensive Immigration Reform legislation was under consideration..  In my piece I recommended that Comprehensive Immigration Reform be given a more honest and descriptive title, I suggested that it be renamed the “Terrorist Assistance and Facilitation Act!”  

Discussions about immigration almost invariably focus on the lack of integrity to the border that is supposed to separate the United States from America.  Clearly that border lacks integrity and represents little more than a speed bump to smugglers who transport illegal aliens and contraband including record quantities of dangerous drugs such as heroin and cocaine into the United States.

However, there are many more components to the immigration system including systems by which aliens are granted visas to enter the United States and various immigration benefits such as conferring employment authorization to aliens in the United States and also include the adjudications process by which aliens are granted lawful immigrant status and even United States citizenship.

All of these systems of the immigration system lack integrity.  Aliens who have gone on to commit crimes and even participate in terrorist attacks have often been dissevered to have successfully gamed the immigration benefits program in order to embed themselves in communities around the United States as they went about their deadly preparations.

Immigration is not a single issue but a singular issue that impacts nearly every challenge and threat confronting the United States today!  Simply stated, the immigration laws were enacted to save lives and protect the jobs of American workers.  In point of fact, our borders and our immigration laws are America’s first line of defense and last line of defense against international terrorists and transnational criminals.

Our armed forces are charged with securing America’s borders externally while the DHS is supposed to secure those same borders from within.  The failures of the DHS to live up to its half of the equation are undermining the efforts, valor and incredible sacrifices of Americas men and women who serve in our military!
If our government’s failures to protect American jobs by securing our nation’s borders and effectively enforcing our immigration laws concerns you or especially if it angers you, I ask you to call your Senators and Congressional “Representative. This is not only your right- it is your obligation! 

All I ask is that you make it clear to our politicians that we are not as dumb as they hope we are!

We live in a perilous world and in a perilous era. The survival of our nation and the lives of our citizens hang in the balance.
