Description
AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Every day, ICE is arresting hundreds of illegal immigrants with a criminal record. They didn't just come here. They were sent here.
Our debates about immigration revolve around what happens with immigrants once they arrive. We need to start talking about who is sending them and why. For decades, establishment elites sold us the story of immigration as a compassionate renewal of the American Dream within a harmonious melting pot.
But beneath that narrative lies a different reality: Mass migration has morphed into the most powerful political weapon ever aimed at the United States-one engineered by elites at home and aided by adversaries abroad. Now Peter Schweizer, the bestselling investigative journalist of our time, is blowing the lid off this whole series of schemes.
Backed by years of forensic fieldwork and a trove of confidential documents and intercepted communications-linking political leaders, global NGOs, and even drug cartels-Schweizer detonates a political shock wave eclipsing his past bombshells, revelations that have sparked FBI probes and bipartisan reforms.
Urgent, shocking, and overflowing with national security implications, The Invisible Coup makes America's greatest political threat visible for all to see-and solve.
