Formerly, Selene served as a Marine intelligence specialist. Together Selene and Frank launch into a discussion on border security and the impact of illegal immigration on border communities. Selene provides updated statistics and real-life examples on the current border situation, and the two discuss the possible political motivations behind today’s immigration policy, the role of NGOs in facilitating illegal immigration, and the public safety concerns associated with uncontrolled borders. Learn more about Selene and here work here: https://www.texaspolicy.com/ CHAPTERS00:00 Introduction and Background03:22 Current Stats and Impact on Border Communities06:07 NGOs and the Facilitation of Illegal Immigration09:01 Political Motivations Behind the Open Borders Policy11:25 The Public Safety Risks of Uncontrolled Borders14:03 Texas' Efforts to Address Border Security17:14 The Broader National Security Implications18:14 ConclusionJOIN THE CONVERSATION:Website: https://statehousepodcast.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/statehousepodcastTwitter: https://twitter.com/StateHousePodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/statehousepod360/Produced by: Terra Firma AudioThis video contains paid promotionMusic provided by SoundStripe:B1QDMRUHPYFLHWQU
