Commentary
State of Border Counterterrorism: Challenges Threaten Security Successes ([link removed])
By Todd Bensman
Homeland Security Today, September 15, 2021
Excerpt: What American homeland security agencies discovered next about Ullah stands as a cautionary tale about the continued efficacy of an almost unknown American counterterrorism enterprise that was deployed at the southern border because of the September 11 attacks.

Amnesty Looms Large in the Reconciliation Bill ([link removed])
By Jason Richwine
National Review, September 14, 2021
Excerpt: Amnesty is exactly the kind of major policy change that the budgetary rule is designed to exclude. Giving green cards to 8 million people has legal, social, and economic effects that go far beyond the increased spending required to pay recipients government benefits. If the main purpose is really just to make illegal immigrants eligible for programs such as Medicaid and food stamps, then presumably the bill should do only that, without granting a path to citizenship. If the Senate parliamentarian allows this amnesty to pass as a budgetary matter, the filibuster will be severely wounded — perhaps fatally.

Senate Parliamentarian Blocks Amnesty in Democrats’ Reconciliation Bill ([link removed])
By Andrew R. Arthur
Excerpt: If congressional Democrats want to pass a widescale amnesty with a huge price tag, they will likely have to do it the old-fashioned way — through committee hearings and votes, and bruising floor debates. They will likely find it is less popular than the D.C. echo-chamber believes. For now, reconciliation is off the table, and likely will stay that way.

Border Patrol 'Revises' July Apprehensions to Exceed 200,000 ([link removed])
By Andrew R. Arthur
Excerpt: Congress should now investigate DHS and find out whether it’s releasing illegal migrants — largely unscreened and not even Covid-tested — into the United States without properly processing them. While 822 forgotten migrants may not seem like a big number, they are indicative of a big problem — with serious implications for national security and American sovereignty.
Operation Allies Refuge: Who Exactly Was on Those Planes? ([link removed])
By Nayla Rush
Excerpt: The ongoing narrative of evacuating Afghan nationals who risked their lives to help U.S. forces in Afghanistan is closer to a myth than it is reality. The truth is, amid the chaos and the urgency, most who got on board had nothing to do with the U.S. government or any of its contractors.

Biden Wants Money from ICE and Border Patrol Agents to ‘Reunify’ Illegal Migrants ([link removed])
By Andrew R. Arthur
Excerpt: Perhaps the most shocking item is Biden’s request to take money from accounts that pay ICE and Border Patrol agents for what he terms “costs related to the reunification of families separated at the U.S.-Mexico border between January 20, 2017 and January 20, 2021”.
