That it means protection. That it’s about keeping Americans secure. But when you actually look at what these policies are doing, it paints a different picture.

The Trump administration’s immigration crackdown isn’t about stopping crime or terrorism. It’s about using fear to justify banning legal immigrants, separating families, and treating spouses and children of U.S. citizens like potential threats, after they’ve already passed years of vetting.

Today I look at the data, the history, and the logic behind these decisions, and show how “extreme vetting” has become a cover for discrimination, government overreach, and political manipulation. Who actually benefits from this politics of fear?
