At a recent Immigration Newsmaker hosted by the Center for Immigration Studies, Rodney Scott, Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, joined Center Executive Director Mark Krikorian for an in-depth conversation on the challenges facing CBP and the administration's broader enforcement strategy. The discussion examined current efforts to secure both the southern and northern borders, combat human smuggling and cartel activity, expand border wall system construction, strengthen coordination with ICE, and facilitate lawful trade and travel while protecting national security.Commissioner Scott oversees the front lines of America's border and national security operations. Under the leadership of DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin, CBP has taken on an increasingly central role in implementing the administration's immigration and border security agenda, making Commissioner Scott one of the most consequential voices in immigration policy today.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestRodney Scott is the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection.LinksPress ReleaseVideoTranscriptIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

In Part One of their epic discussion, they revisit all five films from the original series, from the groundbreaking 1968 classic starring Charlton Heston to the increasingly bizarre sequels that somehow become darker, stranger, and more politically charged with each installment.Along the way, they explore the franchise's unforgettable characters, groundbreaking makeup effects, civil rights allusions, nuclear anxieties, and the surprising emotional depth hiding beneath all that ape makeup.This franchise has it all: mutant cultists, ape revolutions, time travel, political allegory, and the literal end of the world.

The latest episode of the Center for Immigration Studies podcast examines a recent U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) memo emphasizing that adjustment of status - the process allowing certain aliens, either temporary visa holders or unlawfully present, who are eligible for permanent residence to obtain it without leaving the United States - is a discretionary benefit and not a guaranteed alternative to consular processing abroad.The discussion between Senior Legal Fellow George Fishman and Director of Policy Studies Jessica Vaughan is accompanied by a new report and a policy blog on the subject.Among the key findings:Congress created adjustment of status under section 245 of the new Immigration and Nationality Act in 1952 largely to eliminate the need for temporary visa holders already in the United States to travel outside the U.S. for immigrant visa processing to permanent status.In FY2023, which is the most recent year for which statistics on adjustment of status admissions are available, the number of adjustments was 608,260 out of 1,172,910 total immigrant admissions, or 52 percent. Of these adjustments, by far the largest share were in the category of Immediate Relatives (315,830). In contrast, in 2023 only 146,880 people adjusted in all the employment categories combined, although this represented 75 percent of all employment LPR admissions.The policy change is expected to have its greatest impact on certain family-based applicants, including some who overstayed visas, violated the terms of admission, or entered illegally and received parole.While USCIS has broad discretion in adjustment decisions, courts have held that such discretion is not unlimited and may be reviewed for abuse of discretion.Existing legal precedent does not clearly support treating the mere act of seeking adjustment of status as a negative factor weighing against an applicant.USCIS has indicated that it may exercise discretion and offer some applicants the opportunity to adjust if it is in the national interest, such as in the case of applicants with meaningful employment or for humanitarian considerations.Fishman's report concludes that the legal significance of the directive will depend on how USCIS implements it in practice. If denial rates rise substantially or applications are denied absent meaningful adverse factors, litigation challenging those decisions is likely to follow (if federal courts allow legal challenges to adjustment denials outside of removal proceedings).Vaughan argues that the policy could strengthen the integrity of the immigration system as overstayers and parolees will no longer apply for fear of being caught for extended unlawful presence.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestsJessica Vaughan is the Director of Policy Studies at the Center for Immigration Studies.George Fishman is a Senior Legal Fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies.LinksUSCIS Upends the Status Quo for Adjustment of StatusUSCIS Blocks Green Card Shortcut for Overstayers and ParoleesIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

The latest episode of the Center for Immigration Studies podcast examines how the federal government can reduce illegal immigration through administrative, financial, and workplace enforcement measures designed to encourage self-deportation rather than relying primarily on large-scale arrest operations.Andrew Arthur, the Center's fellow in law and policy, joins George Fishman, the Center's senior legal fellow, to discuss what they describe as “briefcase immigration enforcement” — the wide range of legal and regulatory tools available to federal agencies that can make it more difficult for illegal aliens to remain and work in the United States indefinitely.The discussion follows recent Center blogs analyzing President Trump's Executive Order, “Restoring Integrity to America's Financial System,” which directs federal agencies to examine how banking regulations, lending practices, and identification requirements may facilitate illegal immigration and unlawful employment.The podcast examines measures such as requiring proof of legal status to send remittances abroad, restricting access to the U.S. banking system for those here unlawfully, and imposing criminal and civil penalties on aliens who fail to depart within 90 days of receiving final removal orders. The discussion covers proposals to send Social Security “no-match” letters to employers, make more it difficult for illegal aliens to obtain identification documents and driver's licenses, revoke commercial driver's licenses issued improperly, and expand employers' access to photo-matching verification to confirm worker identity and employment eligibility.In the final commentary, Mark Krikorian, the Center's executive director and podcast host, discusses a recent Center report arguing that Congress should consider increasing the waiting period for naturalization to give applicants more time to demonstrate their character and commitment to the principles of the Constitution. The “1798 Solution”, so named because from 1798 to 1802 the wait was 14 years, may be one of the most effective tools available to prevent individuals who pose national security threats from obtaining U.S. citizenship.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestsAndrew Arthur is a Fellow in Law and Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies.George Fishman is a Senior Legal Fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies.LinksBig Banks and U.S. Treasury Have Been Enabling Illegal Immigration for Two DecadesTrump to Banks: Illegal Aliens are Bad Credit RisksDHS and DOJ Begin Imposing Massive Fines on Aliens Who Refuse to LeavePreventing Naturalization National Security Threats: The 1789 SolutionIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

As the nation awaits a potentially landmark Supreme Court decision on birthright citizenship, the latest episode of Parsing Immigration Policy features renowned legal scholar Richard Epstein for an in-depth discussion of the constitutional, historical, and legal arguments surrounding the issue.Epstein, emeritus professor at the New York University School of Law and the University of Chicago Law School, senior fellow at the Civitas Institute at the University of Texas at Austin, and author of the new book The Myth of Birthright Citizenship, recently filed an amicus brief in the Supreme Court case Trump v. Barbara. In the brief, Epstein argues that the Citizenship Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment does not automatically confer citizenship on children born in the United States to illegal aliens.During the conversation, Epstein explains that understanding the issue requires careful textual and historical analysis of the Fourteenth Amendment, particularly the phrase “subject to the jurisdiction thereof.”According to Epstein, the clause requires more than mere physical presence or birth within the United States. He argues that individuals born owing allegiance to a foreign sovereign, or whose parents are not under the complete jurisdiction of the United States, are excluded from automatic citizenship.The episode also explores Epstein's critique of the Supreme Court's 1898 decision in United States v. Wong Kim Ark, which is widely understood as establishing birthright citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment. Epstein contends the ruling was wrongly decided and should not be extended to cases involving children born to illegal immigrants.Drawing on centuries of legal history, Epstein discusses the overlooked Naturalization Acts from 1790 to 1870, the writings of influential thinkers including William Blackstone and Emer de Vattel, and American legal practices before and after the Civil War. He argues that citizenship historically required allegiance and mutual obligations between citizen and sovereign - not simply birth within territorial boundaries.In his closing commentary, podcast host Mark Krikorian discusses the ongoing legislative battle over funding for CBP and ICE through 2029. Republicans are advancing a budget reconciliation package that could reach the House floor as early as this week or next. Because reconciliation bills can pass with a simple majority, the legislation would bypass the Senate's traditional 60-vote filibuster threshold. Krikorian highlights that the Democratic Party has embraced positions hostile to the existence of immigration enforcement agencies, creating potential political consequences in upcoming debates and elections.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestRichard Epstein is Emeritus Professor at the New York University School of Law and the University of Chicago Law School and Senior Fellow at the Civitas Institute at the University of Texas at Austin.LinksThe Myth of Birthright CitizenshipThe Case Against Birthright CitizenshipBrief of Amicus Curiae: Professor A.

A new episode of the Center for Immigration Studies' podcast, Parsing Immigration Policy, examines the issuing of employment authorization documents (EADs), the use of executive discretion in granting work permits, and a proposed regulation affecting asylum applicants.The episode features CIS Director of Regulatory Affairs and Policy Elizabeth Jacobs and Senior Legal Fellow George Fishman discussing how millions of immigrants, including illegal aliens, parole recipients, TPS beneficiaries, DACA recipients, asylum applicants, and temporary visa holders, have received work permits without Congress's authorization.According to CIS estimates, roughly 15 million individuals currently possess work authorization and 4.3 million illegal aliens may be eligible for work permits. As a result, USCIS reports that it faces more than 1.7 million pending EAD applications.The discussion also focuses on a recent DHS regulation that would tighten eligibility for asylum-based work permits by increasing the waiting period from 180 to 365 days and barring applicants who are prima facie ineligible for asylum from receiving employment authorization and requiring the agency to pause acceptance of asylum-based EAD applications when affirmative asylum processing times exceed 180 days. Currently, processing times average over 1,200 days, while a new affirmative asylum applicant could expect to wait decades, according to DHS, before receiving a final decision on their claim.The episode explains that lengthy asylum processing times have created strong incentives for individuals to file asylum claims primarily to obtain work authorization and remain in the United States for extended periods while cases are pending. USCIS currently faces massive asylum and EAD backlogs, contributing to longer processing times across the immigration system.The conversation also examines broader legal questions surrounding executive authority to issue work permits under the Immigration and Nationality Act and whether decades of expanding administrative interpretation have effectively allowed the executive branch to operate an immigration system outside the numerical and statutory limits established by Congress.In his closing commentary, Mark Krikorian, the Center's executive director and podcast host highlights Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons' recent announcement that ICE identified more than 10,000 foreign students in the Optional Practical Training (OPT) program who claimed employment with “highly suspect employers” and that this represents “only the tip of the iceberg.” OPT, which allows foreign graduates to work in the United States for up to 12 months, or up to 36 months for STEM graduates, was created through executive action rather than congressional authorization. The Center has called for the elimination of the program many times in the past.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestsElizabeth Jacobs is the Director of Director of Regulatory Affairs and Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies. George Fishman is a Senior Legal Fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies.LinksDHS Proposes to Amend Asylum Work-Permit Rules to Reduce Fraud and AbuseDOJ: Asylum Applicants Are Skipping Immigration Court at Record Levels; Their goal all along was work permits, not protectionDHS Issues New Regulation to Automatically Extend the Validity Period of Many Work PermitsWork Authorization Expansion Attracts and Embeds Illegal ImmigrantsGovernment Data Reveal Millions of New Work Permits Issued in 2009OPT Needs to EndIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

The Center for Immigration Studies has released a new episode of its weekly podcast analyzing the Trump administration's use of travel restrictions and visa limitations affecting dozens of countries.In the episode, Jessica Vaughan, CIS's Director of Policy Studies, explains that the administration has implemented a series of “more expansive and more targeted” travel restrictions than seen in his first administration – affecting 75 countries through a combination of full bans, partial restrictions, and category-specific limitations.“These policies are not one-size-fits-all,” Vaughan notes. “They are tailored to specific concerns, including national security risks, weak identity verification systems, and high visa overstay rates, some exceeding 50 percent in certain categories. The restrictions are subject to periodic review.”Additionally, the podcast examines a January 2026 State Department pause on immigrant visa issuance for certain countries under public charge considerations, affecting nations with high rates of welfare use among immigrants.Vaughan's discussion with CIS Executive Director and podcast host Mark Krikorian covers how Congress has granted the president authority to restrict entry in the national interest, forming the legal basis for these measures. Currently, restrictions vary widely:Some countries face full entry bans;Others are subject to partial limits, such as restrictions on student or tourist visas;Waivers are available for compelling cases.Vaughan emphasizes that these policies coincide with a broader effort to strengthen vetting processes at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and the State Department. This includes expanded fraud detection, a new National Vetting Center, and more special agents being hired.The policies are already reducing entries and agency workload, but their full impact remains unclear, as the administration has not yet released detailed data.In his closing commentary, Krikorian discusses two blog posts this week on assimilation in Miami, by Resident Scholar Jason Richwine. The experience of Miami shows that assimilation into the mainstream is not inevitable and automatic, and that large-scale admissions can make receiving communities unrecognizable. Keeping immigration low and slow is the key to successful assimilation.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestJessica Vaughan is the Director of Policy Studies at the Center for Immigration Studies.LinksPublic Charge PauseExec Order on travel bansMiami: A Failure of the Assimilation ModelMore on Miami as a Failure of AssimilationIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

Every theatre kid can tell you that Shakespeare's Tragedy of Macbeth is a cursed play. Some believe that even saying the name of the play in a theatre where it is not being performed can jinx a production. Stories of misfortune, injury, and death haunt productions of Macbeth like the ghost of a slain friend. It has been suggested that the curse of Macbeth goes all the way back to it's first performance in 1606. However, evidence of this is sketchy at best. When did people start believing that there was a hex on Macbeth? Does it date to the 17th century or is something else going on here? Tune-in and find out how an arrow through Laurence Olivier's leg, Shakespeare in drag, and Charlton Heston's flaming thighs all play a role in the story.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to the Video Store Podcast.As the 1960s rolled into the 1970s, something changed in Hollywood. Movies got bigger. Louder. More chaotic. And sometimes… they were a total disaster, in the best way possible.These were practical, physical, dangerous productions, massive sets, real stunts, and ensemble casts packed with stars who weren't guaranteed to make it to the end.The disaster movie wasn't born in the '70s but it peaked there. Airplanes in crisis, cities collapsing, ships overturning, skyscrapers burning. This week, my picks come from the golden age of disaster movies as we look at four of my favorite disaster movies that still hold up, and that showcase exactly why the 1970s did the disaster movies better than anyone else ever has.Airport (1970)Set over one snowbound night at a busy Chicago airport, Airport weaves together multiple storylines, an overworked airport manager, a conflicted pilot, strained relationships, and a desperate man with a dangerous plan. The tension builds gradually, before the larger stakes take hold.What makes Airport work so well is it's scale. Burt Lancaster, Dean Martin, George Kennedy, Jean Seberg, Helen Hayes, the cast is stacked with faces you may not know by name, but absolutely recognize. The movie treats its ensemble seriously, letting each storyline unfold without feeling forced.It was a massive hit, one of the earliest true “blockbusters,” and set the template the entire decade would follow: big casts, grounded storytelling, and high-stakes tension. Earthquake (1974)Earthquake promised exactly what it delivered: the complete destruction of Los Angeles.Centered in Los Angeles, the film introduces a wide range of characters, before unleashing a catastrophic quake that tears the city apart. Once it hits, the movie becomes pure spectacle: collapsing buildings, massive destruction, and survival stories unfolding in real time.At the center is Charlton Heston, bringing his signature intensity to a man caught between personal turmoil and unfolding disaster. Around him is a deep ensemble cast, including familiar faces like George Kennedy, Lorne Green and Ava Gardner.Earthquake was create as an event, not just it a movie, it was a physical experience. The filmmakers pioneered the shaker mount camera system to simulate realistic movement, and introduced Sensurround, blasting sub-audible bass through giant speakers so powerful they made seats (and sometimes ceiling tiles) vibrate.The stunt work is amazing: real falls, real debris, real crashes. In the midst of all the destruction, the personal stories carry real weight, making the survival (or loss) of characters more emotional than expected. It's pure disaster chaos.The Poseidon Adventure (1972)Set aboard a luxury ocean liner on New Year's Eve, the movie quickly turns into a survival story when a rogue wave capsizes the ship. The survivors must navigate an upside-down world, climbing their way through the wreckage in hopes of escape.Led by Gene Hackman as a determined and unconventional preacher, the movie leans heavily into character dynamics. Hackman, Ernest Borgnine, Shelley Winters, Jack Albertson, it's another stacked cast, but no one is safe simply because they're famous. Relationships evolve, tensions flare, and every character has a purpose. The writing gives each person a distinct arc, making the journey feel and survival feel important. Add in a powerful score by John Williams, and you get one of the best disaster movies ever made.The Towering Inferno (1974)Set in the world's tallest skyscraper during its grand opening, The Towering Inferno follows what happens when overlooked safety shortcuts turn into a full-scale catastrophe. The film is powered by two Hollywood titans: Steve McQueen and Paul Newman. Their dynamicm, one a no-nonsense fire chief, the other the building's architect, gives the film a strong emotional core amid the chaos.The practical effects and stunt work are relentless: real fire, real smoke, real danger. You can feel the heat.It's also one of the best examples of the genre's ensemble storytelling—multiple perspectives, intersecting arcs, and constant tension. And once again, John Williams' score gives you a movie that is epic and intense.These movies hold up today because of the disaster but also the story telling.They take their time. They let you meet the characters, understand their relationships, and invest in their outcomes. So when disaster strikes, it actually matters. And there's no guarantee of survival, not even for the biggest stars.Long before the term “blockbuster” became standard (thanks to Jaws), these films were already defining what that meant.No matter which of these you choose, you're guaranteed a movie night that's anything but a disaster.Until next time — be kind, rewind.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

At a recent Immigration Newsmaker hosted by the Center for Immigration Studies, Andrew Veprek, Assistant Secretary of State for the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), described a complete reorientation of the bureau, shifting it from a humanitarian assistance agency toward implementing U.S. enforcement and return priorities. The discussion offered a look at how immigration policy is increasingly being implemented through diplomacy as well as enforcement.In a discussion moderated by Mark Krikorian, Veprek said PRM is now organized around three basic functions:Remigration and Returns. Veprek outlined the work of PRM's Office of Remigration, including securing cooperation from foreign governments to facilitate the repatriation of nationals ordered removed, arranging third-country transfers when return to home countries is not possible, and supporting voluntary return efforts through Project Homecoming.International Migration and Refugee System Reform. Veprek discussed reforms to the global refugee and asylum system, and U.S. reassessment of international migration frameworks, including reduced reliance on multilateral institutions and changes in relations with United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.Refugee Processing. He also detailed changes to refugee admissions, including the South Africa resettlement program, the transfer of refugee resettlement responsibilities from the State Department to HHS, increased fraud scrutiny, and the removal of UNHCR from its prior referral role in U.S. refugee admissions.Among the notable points raised during the discussion:Greater foreign cooperation from “recalcitrant” countries on accepting deportees;Use of third-country removal arrangements;Consideration of refugee protection as temporary rather than presumptively permanent;Potential increases to the refugee admissions ceiling;A more selective approach to international organizations based on U.S. interests.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestAndrew Veprek is the Assistant Secretary of State for the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM).LinksTranscript: Immigration Newsmaker with Andrew VeprekVideo: Immigration Newsmaker with Andrew VeprekIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

Today's Parsing Immigration Policy episode is a rebroadcast of an International Network for Immigration Research (INIR) panel that asked a difficult question: Can democracies actually deport large numbers of people, and what happens if they try? Despite years of political focus, large-scale deportation remains extraordinarily difficult to execute in democratic systems governed by courts, rights protections, and bureaucratic limits. This timely panel will explored what is politically popular, what is legally possible, and what is practically achievable.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestsViktor Marsai is the Director of the Budapest-based Migration Research Institute.Matt O'Brien is the Deputy Executive Director, Federation for American Immigration Reform.Jim Robb is the Vice President of Alliances, NumbersUSA.LinksPress ReleasePanel VideoPanel TranscriptIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

A new podcast episode features immigration policy expert Rosemary Jenks, Policy Director and co-founder of the Immigration Accountability Project, providing a detailed analysis of the DIGNIDAD Act introduced for the third time in six years by Rep. Maria Salazar (R-Fla.). Jenks characterizes the legislation as a broad amnesty proposal, referring to it as the “SAW Act” - short for “Screw All American Workers,” while also alluding to the 1986 Special Agricultural Worker program associated with widespread fraud.Key points discussed include:Scope of AmnestyDirect pathway to citizenship for an estimated 2.5 million “Dreamers,” extending beyond current DACA recipientsRenewable temporary visas for individuals who entered before 2021, with weak documentation requirements that will invite fraud; these visas are indefinitely renewable, effectively allowing recipients to remain in the U.S. permanently.A “rolling amnesty” mechanism tied to family-based immigration, including marriage to U.S. citizens Enforcement and Legal ConcernsA two-year deportation moratorium, allowing individuals, including those currently in detention, to avoid deportation and applyRestrictions on using applicant information for enforcement, shielding employers who hired illegal alien workersConcerns about increased incentives for fraud, including marriage fraudSystem Capacity and SecuritySkepticism about USCIS being able to manage a minimum of 10 million applications, numbers that will grow substantially if fraud is widespreadStrict timelines with rapid processing within a two-year window, raising concerns that vetting standards, particularly national security screening, would be among the first elements weakened under pressure, echoing issues seen in past programsDoubts that application fees would cover the full cost, especially given applicants' limited financial resources; critics warn this could create openings for third-party financing, including from cartelsHistorical comparisons to the 1986 amnesty program, where rapid processing contributed to massive fraud and lack of vettingEconomic and Labor Market ImpactImpact on wages and job opportunities for low-, medium-, and high-wage American workersExpansion of legal immigration pathways, including:Doubling employment-based green cardsCodifying OPT and allowing STEM PhD and medical students to stay permanently in the countryPermitting those on the visa waiting list for 10 years to enter regardless of capsThe episode also explores the political outlook for the legislation, including the possibility of a discharge petition in the House, which would allow it to come to the floor despite Speaker Johnson's wishes.In his closing commentary, podcast host Mark Krikorian highlights the recent election in Hungary, which resulted in the defeat of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, widely known for his hardline immigration stance. But his successor, Péter Magyar, is expected to maintain, and perhaps even strengthen, the current strict immigration policies.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestRosemary Jenks is the Policy Director and co-founder of the Immigration Accountability ProjectLinksImmigration Accountability ProjectThe 'Dignity Act'The Price of DignityThe DIGNIDAD (Dignity) Act as ‘Rage Bait' for Those Who Want More EnforcementIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

This week we have a look at the 1968 film PLANET OF THE APES. This is Episode 482! Planet of the Apes is a 1968 American science-fiction film directed by Franklin J. Schaffner from a screenplay by Michael Wilson and Rod Serling, loosely based on the 1963 novel by Pierre Boulle. The film stars Charlton Heston, Roddy McDowall, Kim Hunter, Maurice Evans, James Whitmore, James Daly, and Linda Harrison. In the film, an astronaut crew crash-lands on a strange planet in the distant future. Although the planet appears desolate at first, the surviving crew members stumble upon a society in which apes have evolved into creatures with human-like intelligence and speech. The apes have assumed the role of the dominant species and humans are mute primitives wearing animal skins.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/castle-of-horror-podcast--4268760/support.

False and True Ministers (1) (audio) David Eells, 4/15/26   Discerning False Prophets J.N. - 06/09/2008 (David's notes in red) I dreamed I was in a class with several other pupils. We were in this big room which looked rather like a gymnasium, and I remember thinking and missing my friends from other classes, who I remembered were long gone away. David Eells was our teacher, and I was standing next to him. (A type of the David man-child reformer body.) David was telling me that the previous night there was a party at his next-door neighbor's house and he didn't get much sleep. (God's people giving into lasciviousness have truly caused conscientious leaders loss of sleep.) He was casually dressed, like a sports teacher or a trainer. (We have to train the people of God to get in shape for the contest to come.) Since I was seeing his profile, I noticed he was wearing a patch or a piece of wool over his nose, like he had a nose job, or even more, it looked to me like something he was wearing to filter the air he was breathing. (This nose filter represents the ability to discern and separate good from evil. The nose gives discernment to the mind that is neither seen nor heard. Wool over the nose represents having the true clothing or actions of sheep, which filter out the false spirits, which is the meaning of “breath” in the Hebrew.) The next thing I remember was a tall man entering the room, accompanied by a woman. (The tall man is seen in many dreams as the larger body of the corporate false prophet and his companion, the harlot church.) They were dressed in suits and looked to me like teachers. The man came and was standing next to me, and I knew they were there to acquire some pupils for themselves. (They will seek through lasciviousness, meaning a license to excess, to draw aside disciples of Christ for their own aggrandizement.) I tried to ignore him since I could tell what his intentions were, and then he pointed his finger at me. I looked around for David but couldn't see him. (We will face temptation alone.) I turned to the man and looked at his face for the first time. He was so tall, almost all the way up to the ceiling; I remember feeling the pain in my neck as I was struggling to look at his face. (His great size represents a corporate body of people.) He was nicely groomed, curly-haired, and had bright grey, watery eyes. (They tend to see things in grey, not black or white, as in wrong or right.) Being determined, I told him that I was not going with him because David was my teacher. As I was saying these words, I was getting weak. I remember being hardly able to say that last word, “teacher”, but I succeeded. He looked shocked and very offended because obviously, he had the authority to choose from the class as he liked, and he looked at the woman (the harlot) with disbelief. He looked back at me, trying to put some smile on his angry face, and then I woke up. (JN's name means “victory”. Although tempted, he obviously represents those who gain the victory over the false prophet and harlot because of his training in discernment. We are told that the Word exercises our senses to discern good from evil: (Heb.5:12) For when by reason of the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need again that some one teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of solid food. (13) For every one that partaketh of milk is without experience of the word of righteousness; for he is a babe. (14) But solid food is for fullgrown men, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.)   True and False Leadership Seen Jan Albayalde (David's notes in red) I dreamed these two dreams back-to-back on 08/28/2007.   The Fasting Dream I was sitting in the front row of a huge church that was the true church of the Lord Jesus. The Church was very plain, with white walls and a little wood trim, but nothing ornate or stained glass. A man I don't know walked to the podium to address the people. He was a small man in stature, almost frail. He said just a couple of words, called forward a large man who was about his same age, around 45, had him face the crowd, and began to introduce him. Suddenly, the man at the podium fell on the floor, weeping under the presence of God. At the same time, the man standing to be introduced, who was a Jew wearing a business suit with an azure blue shirt, was also filled with the Spirit and began speaking in tongues. This man was slightly overweight, let's say hearty, with a rosy, robust complexion. He had a lot of snow white hair, so much that I'm sure the Lord wanted me to notice (i.e., it was very high on his head). I rushed forward to help the man on the floor, but before I got to him, as I passed the man speaking in tongues, I became filled with the Spirit, fell on my knees, and began worshipping God. A man in the congregation, a man I DO know as pastor of a local church here, came forward, looked at the man weeping on the floor, the Jew speaking in tongues, me worshipping and said, “This is what happens when you fast and pray; this man on the floor had been in a long fast before the Lord, seeking the face of God and is why the power and glory of God is falling”. An interesting thing about the dream: the man at the podium who had been fasting and fell weeping on the floor was dressed in a suit as he stood, but when I rushed forward to help him, as I fell to my knees under the anointing, I saw he was naked. The man standing behind the pulpit was fasting to weaken the old outer man and so he fell. He was small because “the outer man is decaying yet our inner man is renewed day by day” (2 Cor.4:16). The one introduced represented the new inner man because he had gained what the outer man had lost. He stood in the fast and had a lot of perfectly white hair, meaning much submission to holiness. As in 1 Cor.11:10 the hair is a sign of submission to authority. He had a blue shirt representing heavenly works. He is the spiritual man because he spoke the words of the spirit and is a spiritual Jew because he is circumcised in heart, not flesh. Fasting is so that the old man who is naked, because he is not dressed up with the works of Christ, can be removed so that the new man who is dressed up with Christ in his heavenly works would face the congregation (Rom.13:12-14). This is a good exhortation for the coming new Church leadership to deny feeding self and pray so that Christ, through them, can minister to His people.   The Snake Dream Immediately after the above dream, I dreamed this: I was in my spirit looking down over an orchard of pure white trees which represents the true Church. A huge green snake with huge muted splotches of black along its body appeared at the edge of the grove of white trees. From this point, I no longer saw the trees; my focus was on the snake. Next, the snake turned totally blue. Then the snake turned totally black. End of dream. The green snake is the false leadership of the church or the false prophet. In Acts 16:16 the spirit of false prophecy or divination is translated in Greek as “a spirit; a python”. It is green because it is the natural man ministering and not the spiritual. He stands outside of the white or holy trees, but not in their midst, for he is not holy. The black splotches represent their works of darkness, which are plainly seen. His turning blue as a chameleon represents deception in that he is attempting to be seen as ‘heavenly,' but he serves the (black) darkness and will be seen that way. God is raising up a new leadership for the true church that refuses to feed the flesh, typed by fasting, and the old leadership will be plainly seen for what it has been all along. They will bring a great persecution against the holy, as it was with the Pharisees in Jesus' time.   Man-child Separates False Brethren Ron Shaw - 09/12/2011 (David's notes in red) In a dream on 7/13/10, I heard an audible voice. It said, “It is time for Isaiah 11 and to rid the land of the Palestinians”. I woke up but didn't see anyone. The reference to the Palestinians is not to the physical people in the Middle East but to that spirit that is operating here against Christians. As they work against Israel, so in spirit here against the saints. (The Palestinians were children of Abraham through Ishmael and were considered brothers to the Israelis. In like shadow, there are Christians who are Christians, and there are “Christians” who are Palestinians making war on their brethren while claiming to be the promised seed and owners of the land. Like terrorists and like Judas, they hate and attack their brethren by stealth from darkness. This, along with the types of Jesus as the Man-child, shows Him separating the false brethren from the saints by His Word. Jesus said: (Mat.10:34) Think not that I came to send peace on the earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword (meaning separation). (35) For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law: (36) and a man's foes [shall be] they of his own household. (37) He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. (38) And he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me. (39) He that findeth his life shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. We see here that the Man-child will separate those who refuse to lose their old life from the true disciples of Christ. They will separate the tares from among the wheat. Their Word is a sword.) The following night, I dreamed we were being divided up into different tribes, and there was such joy, and this would come soon. (Just as the spiritual tribe of Judah with its bride, Jerusalem, is being chosen now, so are the rest of the tribes. The names of the 12 tribes, applied spiritually to the Church, identify them by their nature and works.) (So how does Isaiah 11 rid the land of spiritual Palestinians? In the very beginning, which is the beginning of the tribulation, we see the Man-child comes forth.) (Isa.11:1) And there shall come forth a shoot (David) out of the stock of Jesse, and a branch out of his roots (Jesus is the root and those who have abided in Him are the roots) shall bear fruit. (Jesus said: Rev.22:16, “I am the root and the offspring of David” and He is the root below in verse 10. Here, we see that this text is speaking of a branch out of David's roots that will bear fruit. This speaks of the first-fruits corporate body to come out of the roots. This branch is the Man-child who is spoken of in Jeremiah chapters 23 & 33, whose corporate name is “Jehovah Our Righteousness” in both texts. “Our” here identifies them as a corporate body of people. (2) And the Spirit of Jehovah shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Jehovah. (3) And his delight shall be in the fear of Jehovah; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears; (4) but with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the earth; and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth; and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. (5) And righteousness shall be the girdle of his waist, and faithfulness the girdle of his loins. (This corporate body looks so much like Jesus because He lives in them by His fruit and Word. He will minister to the whole Earth through them to raise up the Church. He will have latter rain power to judge the Earth and separate the tares.) (6) And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them (the Man-child). (7) And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. (8) And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder's den. (9) They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain (or Kingdom of God); for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of Jehovah, as the waters cover the sea. (The Man-child's truth and anointing will bring unity and peace between the Gentile beasts who normally “bite and devour one another” (Gal.5:15) who were sanctified according to the Lord: (Act.10:11) and he beholdeth the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as it were a great sheet, let down by four corners upon the earth: (12) wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts and creeping things of the earth and birds of the heaven. (13) And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill and eat. (14) But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common and unclean. (15) And a voice [came] unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, make not thou common. (16) And this was done thrice: and straightway the vessel was received up into heaven. These beasts obviously represent the unsaved, unclean Gentiles, as revealed later in the text. (28) and he said unto them, Ye yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to join himself or come unto one of another nation; and [yet] unto me hath God showed that I should not call any man common or unclean. So the beasts are the Church, whom the Lord will cleanse of their beastly natures. I had a vision of these beasts saved in 2007 called UBM, Refuge from the Storm.) (10) And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse (Jesus), that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious (We see here nations of Christians seeking rest in Jesus). (11) And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord will set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, that shall remain (A great revival of those giving up their beastly heritage to follow Christ.), from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. (The Lord will use the body of the Son of David/Man-child to save the beastly from among the nations.) (12) And he will set up an ensign for the nations, and will assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. (13) The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and they that vex Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim. (The non-Spirit-filled northern 10 tribes will cease warring with the Spirit-filled who have the temple of His presence.) (14) And they shall fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines on the west; together shall they despoil the children of the east: they shall put forth their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them. (These who warred against their ancient brother can become brothers when born again. Many, including Palestinians themselves, believe they are descendants of the Philistines. The word “Palestine” means “land of the Philistines”. But many Palestinians are Arabs from Ishmael and descendants of Abraham. It is possible they are a mixture. Alexander the Great conquered the Philistine cities and sold at least some of them into slavery. Later, Arabs conquered the Byzantines who ruled over Palestine. Jesus taught that it is the spirit that giveth life, the flesh profits nothing. It matters not what our flesh is, but Who lives in it.) (15) And Jehovah will utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his scorching wind will he wave his hand over the River, and will smite it into seven streams, and cause men to march over dryshod. (The Word of the Lord will judge Egypt, as a type of the world, by the Man-child, as it was with Moses, and deliver God's people from bondage.) (16) And there shall be a highway (of holiness) for the remnant of his people, that shall remain, from Assyria (the beast); like as there was for Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.   Beware of the False Man-child Ministers Eve Brast - 08/31/2008 (David's notes in red) In a dream, my husband and I went to visit David for three days. He lived in a small wooden shack to the right and behind a large white mansion with Roman pillars in front of the porch. (The Revived Roman Empire, one world order harlot church.) He had a long gravel driveway leading back to his shack. He looked like Charlton Heston in “The Ten Commandments”, except he wore some faded blue jeans, a faded yellow t-shirt, and an old, worn-out red flannel shirt over it. (David is an end-time type of the Man-child Moses and Jesus who came in humble surroundings and fashion and were very much obscured by the worldly church of their day, “The large white mansion”. The things that have been shall be.) On the first day, my husband and I were going to sell our only last possession -- an old rusted red and yellow station wagon (the old way under the curse) with a chrome luggage rack on the top in the driveway of the mansion, and give the money to UBM. But David came up and said, “I can restore that for you if you want”. (The reformer ministries will restore the simple original way, which looks very different from the lavish mansions of the worldly, prosperity-minded church.) We agreed, and he pulled out a large sander/polisher and ground the old car down into what looked like a yellow nylon rug (restoring the walk of the sun/Son) and then it slowly built itself back up into a brand new, mint condition 1950s station wagon. (The David/Man-child ministries are reformers to restore the way to travel in -- the old paths or ways of Scripture -- which the prosperous apostate church has cast aside for many generations. (Jer.6:16) Thus saith Jehovah, Stand ye in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way; and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls: but they said, We will not walk [therein]. (Isa.58:12) And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places; thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in. (Jude 1:3 Numeric) ...contend earnestly for the faith once delivered unto the saints.) The scene then changed, and I was holding sound equipment in the corner of a room in a white wooden house across the street that belonged to UBM. Still looking like Charlton Heston, David came in and said, “There is a guy who will be coming in, and he is the enemy. He tries to look like me and talk like me and imitate my ministry”. (I have seen these fakes who steal my words and revelations to make disciples of themselves. Just as Pharaoh's magicians copied the works of Moses up to a point. (2Ti.3:6) For of these are they that creep into houses, and take captive silly women (local apostate bodies) laden with sins, led away by divers lusts, (7) ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. (8) And even as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also withstand the truth. Men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith. (9) But they shall proceed no further. For their folly shall be evident unto all men, as theirs also came to be.) I was holding a black pole in my left hand that arched out with a black foam-covered microphone on the end (a boom mic) like reporters use in a crowd to pick up sound from the person that everyone is trying to interview. In my right hand, I held a two-way walkie-talkie so that David and I were in constant communication and he could hear everything the imposter was saying and give me advice and instructions. This device also recorded what the imposter was saying. I was also wire-tapped, like someone working undercover with law enforcement to catch a criminal. David said, “Just be real, still, and faithful about holding that sound recording equipment”. (The Bride has recorded in her memory the sayings of the apostate leadership for God to contrast them with the teachings of the true David ministries. No one knows what is wrong with Babylon any better than those who have been through it.) David said, “You will be fine, don't worry. I will be right outside this window next to you.” He left and went out around the outside of the house, and was fixing a hole in the window screen with some needle-nose pliers. A darker-skinned man (symbolizing walking in darkness) came into the room and went over to the other window screen, imitating David, and began fixing the hole in that screen. (Fixing holes in screens is to keep out the curse of flies. Beelzebub is the lord of the flies, or demons. The impostor only started to fix the screen, but they cannot keep the demons out, for they are already in.) He was really close to me, and I was frozen, holding the equipment. He looked like a Hispanic Charlton Heston. (A fake alien.) He had black hair and a beard. (Symbolizing submission to darkness - 1Co.11:10,15) He was dressed the same as David, bragging about how he could do everything David Eells could do and better, but he was railing in my face about it and bragging like a drunk man how he had restored toy guns in the same manner that you had restored our old car! (The impostors are full of pride and selfish ambition to impress others to gain a following, but this fruit reveals their true nature. Toy guns are for show but have no power against a real enemy. Satan doesn't cast out Satan or destroy his own works but puts on a good show of doing this in his impostors, as in the false revivals.) David was on the other window screen outside, saying, “UH Huh” and “Really?” in response to his tirade. When he realized that David was there outside the window and that I (Eve) was recording him, he was furious and stomped out of the room. (The David ministries will discover who these people are who are covertly attempting to deceive Eve like the serpent did. Eve was the wife of Adam, who represents here a type of the Bride to the “last Adam”, Jesus, who will dwell in the Davids by word and Spirit.) David came back into the room, sat down on the empty floor with the pair of pliers still in his right hand, and said, “Did you hear all that?” I nodded in silence, and he asked, “What are we going to do about this guy?” He was tired and perplexed and shook his head. This man was causing problems for UBM that David had never encountered before. (After this dream in 2008, these false apostles came to us one after another, starting around 2010. We always hope to see the good in God's people, but we tried these men and found them false. (Rev.2:2) I know thy works, and thy toil and patience, and that thou canst not bear evil men, and didst try them that call themselves apostles, and they are not, and didst find them false. (2 Cor.11:13) For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, fashioning themselves into apostles of Christ. (14) And no marvel; for even Satan fashioneth himself into an angel of light. (15) It is no great thing therefore if his ministers also fashion themselves as ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works. Going through this trial has sharpened our eyesight to recognize these fakes.) The second day, I was sitting in an eye exam office in the den of David's shack behind the mansion. I was sitting behind and to the right of an angelic being with short brown hair and extremely large muscles, who was dressed in a white lab coat. David was facing me as he sat on an exam chair. I was sitting in the maroon chair (This was my chair for a lot of teachings. Eve's perspective is from one who sees and understands with the renewed mind of the true Gospel.) I was relaxing in the chair and watching him get his eyes examined by this angel. A large magnifying glass appeared in front of his left eye, and it became extremely large. I was leaning forward in his maroon chair and really looking hard to see what about his eyes the angel was examining. It seemed like David was amused at my curiosity because I was like a child who was really looking hard at something. His eye behind the magnifying glass then smiled at me in response. His eyes were crystal clear and sky blue and so large under that glass that it seemed as if I looked long enough, someone could see right into his soul. I became embarrassed at his amusement at me and quit looking before I could see that far into his being, though. Then the same thing happened with the other eye! (The crystal-clear eyes of the Man-child reformers and seeing into the soul implies no demonic activity, since many see demons in the eyes of those who have them. The sky-blue eyes represent heavenly vision, such as comes from behind the veil in the temple in the Man-child Melchizedek priesthood. Large eyes represent much discernment that is not normally seen. The Bride desires to look into these things, which will be to the delight of the Man-child ministries.) The angel then commanded to my mind and to David's without talking, “TAKE SEVEN DAYS OFF FOR EACH EYE!” (The left eye suggests discernment of evil and the right discernment of good, such as is seen in Jesus' ministry.) A yellow and pink triplicate form then appeared in front of David, without the white copy on top (the angel kept the white copy) and David got up and went and put the triplicate form on his dining room table. (Seven days is the number of entering into the rest from our own works through faith, but the Davids will rest every day from their own works for good insight, as the New Testament commands. The one in charge of any transaction keeps the original copy, and God is in charge of bringing to pass in His Davids the completed rest from man's works, which will bring discernment to look into a man's soul, as Jesus had.) This shack had no bedrooms. (This indicates that this parable is not speaking of a physical rest.) Then on the third day, I was sitting in David's little living room inside his shack. (Morning of the third thousand-year day, when Hosea 6:2,3 says the Lord will come as the latter rain, and this will be first in His David/Man-child ministries as the former rain anointing came first to Jesus.) He was doing one of the Bible studies, and there was a woman to my left with a bobbed, blondish, streaked hairstyle. (The short hair represents lack of submission to the husband, as in 1 Corinthians 11. The unnatural coloring of hair symbolizes submission to various spirits that are not natural to God's people.) She was his wife in this dream, but very bossy, harping, and controlling of the conversation. (His wife means she was receiving of His seed, representing his Word. But initially, there is not complete submission because of ignorance. But for some this will change. All of the disciples were first in their apostate knowledge until the word changed them.) She was interrogating me to spit out what I saw in the eye exam and what was told to us. (Jezebel is antagonistic and persecuting towards what the true Bride sees in the Davids.) There was another tall, thin man about 6' 4” in a tan plaid western shirt and some blue jeans, wearing a dark blue ball cap; he had messy black, oily hair, and an untrimmed black goatee. I couldn't figure out what was wrong with him, but I knew something wasn't right, and they were there to bring chaos to UBM. (This is a spiritual picture of the same false prophets who attempt to lead away the people from the true path. They are thin, meaning undernourished in the Word of God. The goatee pictures of Satan as the head of the goats, since he is seen as the head of a goat in Satanism. The tan plaid shirt represents the many different works of these men, none of which is as white as the Bride's garment. The oily black hair and dark blue ball cap represent submission to the spirits of darkness. (2Pe.2:1) But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there shall be false teachers, who shall privily bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. (Mat.24:24) For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.) Then, this woman, who was David's spiritual wife made us all go outside. (The disciples who were just freed from their sectarian denominations began to form another denomination, and Jesus corrected them. (Luk. 9:49) And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name; and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us. (50) But Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against you is for you. Paul declared that denominations or sects are a work of the flesh.) Like the harlot church in Israel was led by their false prophets to excommunicate their appointed husband, Jesus, and his disciples, so the end-time Jezebel will excommunicate the David ministries and disciples in whom Jesus lives. Israel was supposed to receive the seed of the Son of God through David's seed, and now the Church is to receive the seed of the Son of God through David's corporate man-child seed.) Then we rode bicycles around his shack with him in the lead on a red bicycle. (Bicycles represent balance and progress, since you must keep moving only forward and stay balanced in the Word. The red bicycle represents a path washed in the blood.) (He seemed to be unaware of the danger that these two people posed to UBM. They took advantage of his tiredness and were taking charge of things.) (Notice that false prophets “shall arise” and may not be apparent at first, just as Judas was hidden among the disciples as he has been among us but they were revealed by dreams and visions. Jesus knew Judas, as will the David Man-child ministers. The Judas' will manifest as the treasonous traitors and thieves that they are.)   False and True Wedding Rehearsal Eve Brast - 12/21/2011 (David's notes in red) In a dream, I was standing with my mom and looking down from a high balcony of a hotel (the Church) onto a wedding rehearsal taking place in an inner courtyard at the ground level. Everything looked white except a curved trail of colored rose petals that ran from the left of the courtyard up to the altar. (There was no minister at the altar. (Because they are not living the crucified life.) This false wedding rehearsal is very deceptive; it even appeared white to me except that I recognized it as being on the ground and of the earthly things, and I respected what the Word has to say about those who dwell on the earth and mind earthly things.) (This Wedding rehearsal is at the ground level because it is for those who dwell on the earth and not in heavenly places, abiding in Christ Jesus. It is a deception that much of the Church has bought into.) There was also a white tent gazebo where a harlot was reclining under on a green lawn chair with a giant squirrel. (A squirrel is a beast that digs in the earth and stores up its treasures like the talent there.) (This beast represents the carnal nature of the harlot -- loving the world and the things of the world. The white is deceptive, for she is not pure. We can see and know by experience that the harlot falsely claims to be the bride of Christ.) My mom (the true church) and I (the true bride) saw a white staircase that extended toward heaven in the center of the courtyard, but did not touch the ground. (It is heavenly and may not be ascended without faith and the resulting help from heaven.) We wanted to go up the staircase in order to see more clearly from a better vantage point during this rehearsal. (Yes, a heavenly vantage point, which only those with the Word have.) We had to go down to the second-floor balcony (spiritual death comes first.) in order to go up to the top landing of the staircase (resurrection life). When we were halfway up the staircase, I noticed that my son Elijah was a three-month-old baby in my right arm. (The Man-child is born from the bride body, in the mist of the larger Church body.) I noticed five women in white dresses who were following my mom and me up the staircase. (The corporate body of the five wise virgins who kept enough oil for their lamps and dwell in the heavenlies and not on the earth will see through this false move of satan to deceive and blind the eyes of those who dwell on the earth, who mind earthly things and have not separated themselves to seek after the Kingdom of God.) When we reached the top landing, the women sat down on the stairs to wait with us, and a purple sponge dripping with water appeared in my hand, and I washed Elijah with it. (The Man-child has now been washed with the pure water of the Word.) As I was looking through a baby bag for a blue outfit to put on Elijah (representing heavenly works), the sponge fell out of my hand over the stair railing and hit the harlot's left foot. (The pure Word will judge the harlots leftist walk.) (All I could see was her left leg from the knee down. She had on a green sequined gown split up to the mid-thigh with a green 3 1/2-inch-high heel pump on her foot.) (Green represents natural not spiritual. Also she wants to appear larger than she is.) When the sponge hit her foot and shoe, the giant squirrel crawled over her (took authority over her) and started to dig a hole next to her foot outside the tent gazebo and bury a large acorn out of its mouth there. (The sponge brings the royal water from heaven, the seed of the Kingdom. It is useless to the harlot who walks with the squirrel beast on the left who buries his treasures in the earth. The beast in her only valued the seed that comes from earth, out of the beast's mouth, the acorn.) After this, I saw a very fat (i.e. fleshly), false bridegroom dressed in a white tuxedo with a yellow rose on his lapel. His hair was very short (Representing lack of submission) and dyed blonde (fake sunship) with blonde beard stubble growth on his face. It was a transsexual who looked just like “Chaz Bono,” Sonny and Cher's daughter, Chastity, who became a man. (The real bridegroom is not at all confused about Who and what He is; He is all male and sows the seed of the Kingdom to bring forth His fruit.) He also had five women wearing white dresses hanging on him in worship and awe. (One behind him and two on each arm. (the five foolish virgins) He had a big smile on his face as he paraded around showing off these women. This is when I woke up. (It seems that these two events will be happening simultaneously. The world and apostate “Christianity” will only see the false wedding rehearsal happening; they won't see the true Man-child ministry when it is anointed to go forth. I asked the Father to give me some verses for this dream. I opened my Bible, and my finger was on: (Mat.1:20) But as he thought on these things, lo the Lord's angel appeared to him in a dream saying, Joseph, David's son, fear not to take to thee Mary thy wife: for what is begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit. (Mary believed God that she would bear the fruit of Jesus ant it was fulfilled. The true Man-child who sows the true seed of the Word, born of the virgin, who has known no seed or word of man.) The second verse I got was (2Co.11:1) Would that ye could bear with me in a little foolishness: but ye indeed bear with me. (2) For I am zealous over you with a zeal of God; for I espoused you to one husband, that I might present you a pure virgin to the Christ. I went on to read down through: (14) And no marvel; for the very satan fasioneth himself into an angel of light. (There are many who claim to be the Man-child, woman, or Bride of our day and they are deceived by Satan.) (Php.3:18) For many walk, of whom I told you often and now tell you even weeping, they are the enemies of the cross of the Christ: (19) whose end is destruction: whose god is the belly (this was represented by the very fat, false bridegroom in the man-child) and their glory is their shame, who mind the earthly things. (20) For our citizenship is in the heavens whence also we wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ (Represented by the true corporate body of the Bride and Man-child, along with the wise virgins who are filled with the oil of the Holy Spirit and whose job it is to escort the Bride and groom to the groom's home in heaven.) (21) who shall fashion anew the body of our humiliation, conformed to the body of His glory according to the working whereby He is able even to subject all to Himself.

Greg Jenner is joined in medieval Spain by historian Professor Nora Berend and comedian Toussaint Douglass to learn about the colourful life and afterlife of the warrior known as El Cid. El Cid – real name Rodrigo Díaz – was a mercenary in eleventh-century Spain who fought for both Christian kings and Muslim rulers before setting himself up as ruler of Valencia. This episode explores his dramatic life in the period before religious divisions were key on the Iberian Peninsula, and an ambitious warrior might fight for whoever would pay him. It then traces the legend that grew up around him after his death, taking in the medieval romances written about El Cid, the surprising role his bones played in the Napoleonic wars, his appropriation by General Franco after the Spanish Civil War, and even the classic Hollywood film starring Charlton Heston and Sophia Loren.If you're a fan of legendary but mysterious figures from the past, medieval romances, and the use and misuse of history for political purposes, you'll love our episode on El Cid. If you want to learn more about other historical events mentioned in this episode, listen to our episodes on al-Andalus and Young Napoleon.

The Center for Immigration Studies has released a new episode of its podcast featuring CIS experts Andrew “Art” Arthur and George Fishman, who reflect on their time working together on Capitol Hill, including their firsthand experiences on September 11, 2001, and the major immigration legislation that followed.The episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at how immigration laws are made. Arthur and Fishman recount the immediate aftermath of 9/11 as staffers on House Judiciary Committee and their roles in drafting legislation that helped reshape U.S. immigration enforcement, including efforts that contributed to the Homeland Security Act of 2002 and the breakup of INS into enforcement and service components within the new Department of Homeland Security.The discussion also explores contentious debates over criminal penalties, interior enforcement, and proposals that sparked nationwide protests in the mid-2000s. From the USA PATRIOT Act to the REAL ID Act of 2005, the episode highlights how national security concerns reshaped immigration policy and how some key recommendations, such as the creation of a biometric entry-exit system, remain unfulfilled decades later.Podcast host and CIS executive director Mark Krikorian also reminds listeners of today's International Network for Immigration Research (INIR) event (streamed live at noon ET) hosted by the Center. Panelists from CIS, NumbersUSA, FAIR, and the Budapest-based Migration Research Institute examine whether modern democracies can carry out large-scale deportations.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestsAndrew Arthur is the Resident Fellow of Law and Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies.George Fishman is a Senior Legal Fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies.Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. We start the program with two "Jangles" -- Jewish angles -- on this week's entertainment news. In a follow-up to our previous program, we hear how the comic Modi dropped out of a Passover event after finding out that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani was participating. A principled stance? And then, Hoffman pays tribute to Tzruya ‘Suki’ Lahav, who played violin with Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band half a century ago, and died last weekend. However, in honor of the end of the Passover holiday, we turn our gaze to "The Ten Commandments," which this year turns 70. The 1956 Cecil B. DeMille "sandal epic" sees Charlton Heston as Moses going head-to-head with Yul Brynner as Rameses. The supporting cast also glitters with Anne Baxter as Nefretiri, Edward G. Robinson as Dathan, Yvonne De Carlo as Sephora and Debra Paget as Lilia. Although screened annually in the US, Hoffman hadn't watched it for several decades, and this is Borschel-Dan's first time. But it's a movie that, as Hoffman puts it, "people know even if they haven't seen it." The duo goes into the weeds with the biblical and Jewish influences on the work, including a surprise member of the tribe for Hoffman. And, while dated in its treatment of women on screen, the film also offers an insightful feminist moment. Stick around to see if "The Ten Commandments" got an "oy," "meh" or "not bad" in this week's The Reel Schmooze.

1. Moses. Charlton Heston. The Ten Commandments. 603 other commandments. Mount Sinai. The Passover lamb. Many sacrifices. Works. Hearing and doing. Sins temporarily covered. Reminded of sins. 2. Jesus. The Lamb of God. Grace. The gift of salvation and righteousness. Faith. One sacrifice. Easter. The Resurrection. The Holy Spirit. Eternal forgiveness. Sins taken away. Sins remembered no more. The above is a nutshell version relating some headlines to two very different covenants. How is it that the church culture has embraced combining various portions of these covenants that were never meant to be mingled? Perhaps it's because the Bible is often considered "one book," or wrongly assuming the New was meant to be some type of addendum to the Old. Let's take a look at how badly the target has been missed with such a mixture of law and grace. God's grace (apart from law) is the recipe for us to reign in life and teaches us to deny ungodliness ... not advocating for an old or revamped law that was fulfilled and abolished by Jesus.

The latest episode of the Center for Immigration Studies Podcast highlights the 13th Annual Border Tour. For the first time, the tour shifted away from land borders, bringing participants to South Florida to examine America's maritime boundaries and the unique challenges they present.Hosted with assistance from Anthony Coker, Gov. Ron DeSantis's “immigration czar”, the tour offered an in-depth look at Florida's highly coordinated, “all-of-government” approach to immigration enforcement. Participants observed firsthand the seamless collaboration between federal and state agencies operating under 287(g) authority, which allows state and local officers to carry out certain federal immigration functions.The tour began with a roundtable of federal and state partners, underscoring the strength of these relationships. Attendees later joined the Florida Highway Patrol on a ride-along, witnessing real-time coordination with ICE, including routine traffic stops that included high-speed pursuits and arrests of illegal aliens, one of whom was a convicted murderer.Participants also joined Florida Fish and Wildlife officers and State Guard units on the water, where maritime enforcement operations are supported by radar systems capable of monitoring activity as far as the Bahamas.A visit to the state-run detention facility known as “Alligator Alcatraz” highlighted both operational capacity and humanitarian standards, including comprehensive medical care for detainees.The tour concluded with visits to an immigration court and a naturalization ceremony, where Mark Krikorian delivered the keynote address, offering a powerful reminder of the legal immigration process and the meaning of American citizenship.Florida's model demonstrates how strong leadership and interagency cooperation can deliver effective, large-scale immigration enforcement.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestsMarguerite Telford is the Director of Communications at the Center for Immigration Studies.John Wahala is the Assistant Director at the Center for Immigration Studies.RelatedInside Florida's Alligator Alcatraz Detention CenterGov.

As the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to hear one of the most significant immigration cases in decades, a new podcast from the Center for Immigration Studies explores who is entitled to American citizenship at birth and which branch of government has the authority to define it.On April 1, the Court will hear Trump v. Barbara, a case challenging Executive Order 14160, which seeks to deny automatic citizenship to children born in the U.S. to parents who are in the country illegally or temporarily.In this episode, Hans von Spakovsky, Legal Fellow at Advancing American Freedom, and Andrew Arthur, the Center's Fellow in Law and Policy, examine the central constitutional question: what does the phrase “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” in the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution actually mean?They argue that the framers intended citizenship to depend on political allegiance, not simply place of birth, pointing to early interpretations and contrasting them with the broader reading adopted in the late nineteenth century in United States v. Wong Kim Ark.The Court could affirm current interpretation of doctrine, defer to executive interpretation, or return the issue to Congress.“This will be one of the most consequential decisions in years,” von Spakovsky notes.In the closing commentary, Mark Krikorian, executive director and podcast host, highlights a separate upcoming Supreme Court case involving Temporary Protected Status (TPS), where the statute states clearly that there is no judicial review of TPS designations. What are the limits to judicial review and will the judiciary allow the executive to carry out immigration law as written by Congress?HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestsHans von Spakovsky is a Legal Fellow at Advancing American Freedom. Andrew Arthur is a Fellow in Law and Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies.RelatedBirthright Citizenship: A Fundamental Misunderstanding of the 14th AmendmentThe Best Aspects of the ‘Birthright Citizenship' DebateBirths to Illegal Immigrants and Long-Term Temporary VisitorsThe Supreme Court Takes Up a Vital, Slam-Dunk Immigration Case [TPS]Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

As Virginia considers limiting cooperation with federal immigration authorities, Loudoun County Sheriff Mike Chapman warns in a new Parsing Immigration Policy podcast that such policies could undermine public safety.Both podcast host Jessica Vaughan, the Center's Director of Policy Studies, and Chapman recently testified before the Senate Budget Committee on the fiscal and human costs of sanctuary jurisdictions.Chapman, a 14-year sheriff overseeing Virginia's largest full-service sheriff's office, described cooperation with federal authorities as standard law enforcement practice. He describes his 287(g) agreement with ICE, which enables his office to notify federal authorities when removable offenders in custody are scheduled for release and hold them for up to 48 hours for ICE to pick them up. In practice, he noted, ICE nearly always assumes custody without delay.“Why would I release a criminal alien back into the community to commit another crime? I'm not going to apologize for doing my job — keeping people safe.”In the discussion, Chapman also emphasized accountability in law enforcement, noting that as an elected sheriff, he answers directly to the public — not political leadership. This allows public safety to drive the mission, not politics.Key topics of the interview with Sheriff Chapman include:How cooperation with ICE reduces the need for riskier at-large arrestsThe role of detainers and advance notification in transferring custodyWhy claims that cooperation discourages crime reporting are not true in practiceConcerns that requiring judicial warrants for civil detainers would “slow everything to a crawl”Chapman warned that proposed restrictions in Virginia, including limiting agreements with ICE and curtailing information-sharing, could replicate the public safety consequences seen in other sanctuary jurisdictions. The neighboring Fairfax County has had two murders recently, allegedly by individuals released despite detainers placed on them by ICE.HostJessica Vaughan the Director of Policy Studies at the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestMike Chapman is the Sheriff of Loudoun County, Virginia.RelatedMap: Sanctuary Cities, Counties, and StatesWhich Sanctuary Jurisdictions Have Released the Most CriminalsTestimony - Sanctuary Cities: The Cost of Undermining Law and OrderAre Immigrants Less Willing to Report Crime?Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

Do you ever feel that you aren't suited for sharing your faith in Christ? Maybe you're not comfortable around people. Maybe you've encountered some who are hostile to faith.If so, then we are speaking to you about sharing your light in a dark world.Philippians 2:15 says, “Shine...like the stars in the sky.”Have you seen the movie, “The Ten Commandments?” It's doubtful the real Moses looked and talked like Charlton Heston. And do we really think God looks for His witnesses among people who have that perfect British accent in a Jesus movie? Nope. If we think we have to look or act a certain way, then we're doing it wrong. God doesn't ask our permission when giving us our marching orders for sharing the Gospel of Jesus. Instead, He approaches us as He did Job: Stand up and listen to what I have to tell you.You are called to shine a light for Christ in a world full of dark things. You are equipped, just as you are. God has called you. Be bold in Christ.He is the Star. We are just lights along the way.Let's pray. Lord, the time is now. So many need you. God, would you help us to shine for you every day?

U.S. Rep. Brandon Gill (TX) joined Mark Krikorian, the Center's executive director, for an Immigration Newsmaker conversation discussing U.S. immigration policy, border security, and potential reforms to both legal and illegal immigration systems.“We've had open borders for four years, with an estimated 15 to 20 million illegal immigrants entering the United States,” Gill said. “It's the biggest political crisis we've faced in decades. More fundamentally, immigration touches everything else — it is the one issue that determines who we are as a country and as a people.”Gill addressed enforcement policy, immigration levels, assimilation, and current political debates on immigration law.Key TakeawaysWorksite Enforcement and E-VerifyGill emphasized worksite enforcement as a core component of immigration policy, arguing that job opportunities in the U.S. serve as a major pull factor for illegal immigration.He called for mandatory use of E-Verify, saying illegal employment undercuts wages for working-class Americans and creates incentives for illegal immigration and allows some industries to operate on what he described as “a lawless employment structure.”Immigration Policy and Cultural AssimilationGill argued that immigration policy should prioritize the interests of American citizens and preserve the country's distinct culture. He said the U.S. immigration system historically expected newcomers to avoid becoming a public charge and to assimilate culturally, noting that the country may need “several decades” to absorb and assimilate recent arrivals.Legal ImmigrationGill criticized the current family-based immigration system, which accounts for roughly 60 percent of legal admissions, and employment visa programs such as the H-1B program, arguing they are fraud-ridden and suppress wages.Welfare Use and Integration ConcernsGill highlighted welfare usage and English language statistics among Somalis in Minnesota, citing CIS research indicating that 78 percent of Somalis in Minnesota who have been in the U.S. for at least 10 years receive welfare benefits and that roughly half report limited English proficiency.Policy Debates in CongressGill also discussed the upcoming Supreme Court case addressing birthright citizenship and said the case could determine whether the president has authority to reinterpret existing policy or whether legislative or constitutional action would be required. He also credited the Trump administration with significantly improving border enforcement and called for codifying executive actions, including his proposed Remain in Mexico Act, reintroducing H.R. 2, and taking stronger actions against sanctuary jurisdictions, including defunding sanctuary jurisdictions and holding local officials legally liable for crimes committed by illegal immigrants released into communities.He also reminded listeners that immigration enforcement once enjoyed bipartisan support, but now moderate Democrats who supported enforcement are gone and mass migration has become a central political strategy for the Democratic Party making agreement difficult.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director at the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestU.S. Rep.

A new episode of Parsing Immigration Policy features a wide-ranging conversation on national security threats tied to the historic surge of illegal immigration during the Biden administration. Host Andrew Arthur, the Center's Fellow in Law and Policy and a former immigration judge, interviews Mark Morgan, a former FBI agent who also served as Chief of the U.S. Border Patrol, Acting Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and Acting Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.In the episode, Morgan warns that the unprecedented number of illegal entries during the last administration created serious vulnerabilities for the United States. Under President Biden, 10.5 to 12 million inadmissible aliens were encountered at the border, most of whom were released into the United States. In addition, an estimated 1.5 to 1.8 million “got aways” - individuals observed crossing the border illegally but never apprehended -entered the country.“These are individuals we know nothing about, and the most difficult threats to stop are lone actors or small cells,” Morgan explains.Morgan emphasizes that border security is inseparable from national security, particularly as intelligence officials are warning of an elevated terrorism threat environment. The FBI and the broader intelligence community have described the current threat landscape as the most complex since the aftermath of the September 11 attacks.The discussion also addresses concerns about potential Iranian sleeper cells and terrorist proxies following escalating tensions involving the Islamic Republic of Iran. Morgan explains that the Iranian regime was responsible for more American deaths than any other organization, and that they have historically relied on proxy groups such as Hezbollah to carry out attacks against U.S. interests.Arthur and Morgan also examine emerging threats from foreign adversaries, including concerns surrounding the entry of more than 200,000 Chinese nationals during the Biden administration and the broader risks posed by individuals arriving from 163 different countries, including individuals on the terrorist watchlist and thousands of “Special Interest Aliens” who entered daily from nations known to facilitate terrorism.Morgan concludes that the long-term consequences of the border crisis will continue to impact U.S. national security for years to come, underscoring the need for stronger enforcement, improved vetting, and policies that restore integrity to the immigration system.Host Art Arthur is the Resident Fellow in Law and Policy at the Center for Immigration StudiesGuestMark Morgan isa former FBI agent who also served as Chief of the U.S. Border Patrol, Acting Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and Acting Director of Immigration and Customs EnforcementRelatedMark Morgan's new book, The Biden Border CrisisOperation Midnight Hammer and Threat of Iranian Sleeper CellsThousands of Special Interest Aliens Posing Potential Security Risks Entering via CBP One AppHow to Lower the Risk of New Terror Strikes by Border-Crossing Islamist ExtremistsBiden Administration Secretly Let in Thousands of Unvetted Migrants from ‘Countries of National Security Concern'Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

On Tuesday night, President Trump delivered a lengthy State of the Union (SOTU) address on Capitol Hill, during which immigration policy figured prominently. In this episode of Parsing Immigration Policy, guest host Jessica Vaughan, the Center's Director of Policy Studies, and guest Art Arthur, the Center's Resident Fellow in Law and Policy, break down issues that the President chose to highlight. Some of the discussed portions of SOTU address:The most political moment of the President's speech came when the President invited congressional members to stand if they agreed that, "The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.”President Trump underscored the success of his border policy, fulfilling a major campaign promise. The speech also attempted to explain the President's current immigration enforcement strategy by highlighting various crimes committed my criminal aliens, including the death of Lizbeth Medina. President Trump promoted four pieces of legislation: “Delilah's Law”, which would prohibit states from issuing commercial driver's licenses to those here illegally; the stalled DHS funding bill; an act to end federal funding for sanctuary jurisdictions; and the SAVE Act, which would require proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections. There were two noteworthy omissions from the speech: legal immigration and temporary work visas.HostJessica Vaughan is the Director of Policy Studies at the Center for Immigration StudiesGuest Art Arthur is the Resident Fellow in Law and Policy at the Center for Immigration StudiesRelatedIt Is Impossible to Fully Vet Immigrants When a Culture of Corruption Exists New January Data Still Shows Most Job Growth Going to Immigrants; 88% since 2020, 72% in the last year Why Cutting Chain Migration Must Be Part of an Immigration DealIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

A partial government shutdown that began at midnight on February 14 has halted appropriated funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), affecting FEMA, TSA, the Coast Guard, Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). A new podcast episode provides an assessment of where negotiations stand and what is at stake for immigration enforcement nationwide.Guest Grant Newman, Director of Government Relations for the Immigration Accountability Project, discusses the evolving Democratic demands that triggered the partial government shutdown. Initially vague, those demands have since focused on proposed restrictions on ICE operations, including requiring judicial warrants for civil immigration enforcement, prohibiting enforcement at or near certain locations (such as schools, hospitals, churches, courthouses, and more), banning officer face coverings, and mandating body camera requirements. Newman argues these measures would effectively halt interior enforcement without formally abolishing ICE.Few details are available about negotiations, with Congress out of session and the White House engaged in closed-door discussions directly with Democratic leadership. The episode examines whether the current strategy is strengthening enforcement opponents' leverage or creating political risk, particularly if a national emergency occurs during the shutdown.The discussion also explores potential Republican counter-demands (including a stop to sanctuary jurisdiction non-cooperation), internal party dynamics, the timing of the shutdown, and the sustainability of DHS operations if the shutdown persists too long.The program concludes with commentary from Mark Krikorian, who highlights recent reporting by Andrew Arthur detailing how nearly one million immigration court cases were administratively closed under the Biden administration — creating what he describes as a “legal dark hole” that shielded removable aliens from enforcement and functioned as a de facto amnesty.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration StudiesGuestGrant Newman is Director of Government Relations for the Immigration Accountability ProjectRelatedImmigration Accountability ProjectIAP ActionThe DHS Shutdown: A Reckless Gamble Verging on MadnessDOJ Reveals that Biden Granted a Quiet Amnesty to Nearly One Million AliensIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

A recent Capitol Hill policy briefing sponsored by the Center for Immigration Studies and the Ben Franklin Fellowship examined the long-term security implications of the Biden administration's Afghan evacuation program. Excerpts from the event are featured in this week's episode of Parsing Immigration Policy, titled “Stopping the Next Afghan Terrorist Attack: Mitigating the Vetting Failures, Fraud, and Corruption of the Biden-Era Evacuation Program.”Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), a member of the House Judiciary Committee and co-chair of the Border Security Caucus, opened the discussion by warning that the Biden-era “Operation Allies Welcome” for Afghan nationals evolved into “an unmanageable and unsafe process.” He argued that safeguards became optional and that statutory vetting standards were weakened. “We're not abandoning allies,” Biggs said. “We're importing unvetted migrants. And the only promise we were breaking was our oath to keep American citizens safe and protect our borders and our people.” He emphasized that security vetting protects both Americans and the integrity of legitimate humanitarian programs.Andrew Veprek, Assistant Secretary of State for Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), detailed how the Afghan Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) program had expanded far beyond the original SIV statutory framework. He noted that while the traditional SIV category required 15 years of faithful service and chief-of-mission approval, the Afghan program extensively broadened eligibility and reduced verification standards, gutting statutory requirements. There are still roughly 120,000 principal applicants still in the SIV pipeline (not including family members, which could quintuple the total). President Trump has put a hold on these.James Rogers, a former Foreign Service officer and whistleblower, described systemic pressure for rapid visa processing and adjudication. He cited widespread document irregularities and estimated substantial fraud, potentially higher than 75%, within the applicant pool. Rogers called for structural whistleblower protections and reforms to separate investigative and defensive functions within the employee grievance process.Mark Krikorian, the Center's executive director and podcast host, concludes the podcast discussion by highlighting a recent development in Afghanistan that complicates U.S. policy even further: the Taliban's recent issuance of a new penal code that formally recognizes slavery. Krikorian argues that Afghan nationals seeking entry to the U.S. can now claim they are fleeing slavery, triggering asylum grants despite the impossibility of meaningful vetting. He advocates eliminating defensive asylum claims and instead transferring applicants to safe third countries willing to accept them.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration StudiesGuestsRep.

The Center's latest podcast episode features Florida Governor Ron DeSantis discussing how Florida has become the gold standard on immigration enforcement.Gov. DeSantis explains why Florida has avoided the unrest seen in Los Angeles and Minneapolis, pointing to strong state laws and cooperation with federal authorities.Key highlights:Mandatory Cooperation with ICE: During a special legislative session following President Trump's election, Florida enacted a law requiring all state and local officials to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement. Officials who refuse can be suspended from office. Sanctuary policies are banned statewide.287(g) Agreements: All 67 Florida county sheriffs participate in 287(g) agreements, along with the majority of police agencies. Florida is the first state to require state agencies to enter such agreements, enabling full task-force, street-level cooperation with ICE.More than 20,000 apprehensions have resulted from state and local cooperation.State-Run Detention Capacity: Florida operates a state-owned detention and processing facility, nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” to address federal detention shortages. An immigration judge adjudicates cases onsite, and DHS conducts removals directly from the facility's airstrip.A second “Deportation Depot” in northern Florida supports removals.DHS provides full federal reimbursement.Provides an update on legal challenges.Interior Enforcement Measures:Mandatory E-Verify for public employers and private employers with 25+ workers.No driver's licenses or local photo IDs (by government agencies or NGOs) for illegal immigrants.English-only commercial driver's license testing.State election crimes unit to prosecute illegal voting.Maritime Enforcement: Through Operation Vigilant Sentry, Florida interdicts migrants at sea and hands them over to the Coast Guard for return to their home countries.In his closing commentary, Mark Krikorian, executive director and podcast host, highlights a new Center report finding that 53% of immigrant-headed households, legal and illegal together, use at least one welfare program. He points out that most immigrants work, but because they have low levels of education, they earn low wages and thus rely on taxpayer-funded support. Reducing future dependence requires selecting legal immigrants based on skills and enforcing laws against illegal immigration.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration StudiesGuestFlorida Governor Ron DeSantisRelatedWelfare Use by Immigrants and the U.S.-Born, 2024Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

A new episode of the Center for Immigration Studies podcast examines the U visa program, originally created by Congress in 2000 under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), and explains how a narrowly tailored law-enforcement tool has evolved into a large-scale immigration benefit program, riddled with fraud and abuse.The U visa was designed to help law enforcement agencies detect, investigate, and prosecute crimes by offering legal status to unlawfully present victims of serious crimes who might otherwise be reluctant to have contact with authorities, in exchange for their cooperation. Congress capped the program at 10,000 visas annually, excluding family members.Key findings discussed in the episode include:The program has been overwhelmed, with roughly 250,000 pending applications from principal applicants and 150,000 more from family members – about 400,000 total cases.The surge is not driven by increased victimization, but by policy changes under the Biden administration that created incentives to apply regardless of merit.Under the Biden administration, applicants received work permits and protection from deportation upon filing an application, even before meaningful vetting or adjudication.USCIS officers were stripped of authority to place fraudulent applicants into deportation proceedings, eliminating consequences for false or frivolous filings.Evidence of abuse includes staged crimes, forged law-enforcement certifications, and an underground industry marketing the U visa as a means to a work permit.An internal USCIS study found that one-fifth of applicants were already in removal proceedings when they applied.Some sanctuary states, including California and Illinois, have leveraged the U visa as an amnesty tool, pressuring local law-enforcement agencies to certify applications.Recommendations include:Administrative actions to prioritize legitimate cases and reopen questionable approvals.Congressional reforms to restrict benefits before approval and tighten statutory eligibility.State and local standards for certification, centralized review, and increased oversight.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration StudiesGuestJessica Vaughan is the Director of Policy Studies at the Center for Immigration StudiesRelatedThe U Visa ProgramTrump Sends His ‘Ace Reliever' Tom Homan to MinneapolisImmigration Newsmaker: A Conversation with ICE Deputy Director Tom HomanIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

A new episode of the Center for Immigration Studies podcast features Amanda Bartolotta, an investigative reporter for WorldNetDaily, for a detailed, evidence-based examination of abuses within the H-1B visa program and the powerful trade groups that profit from it.Drawing on firsthand experience in the tech sector, Bartolotta explains how certain IT staffing and outsourcing firms, often referred to as “body shops”, have built a business model around labor arbitrage, using temporary visa programs to displace U.S. workers while shifting jobs and intellectual capital overseas. The discussion focuses heavily on the ITServe Alliance, a trade organization representing hundreds of IT staffing firms that rely on H-1B, OPT, CPT, and related visa programs.Bartolotta explains how Bloomberg has documented exploitation of the H-1B lottery through multiple registrations for the same workers. She also outlines how ITServe openly promotes an integrated onshore-offshore labor pipeline, recruiting abroad while partnering with Indian state governments to expand offshore operations, all while lobbying U.S. policymakers as an “American job creator.”The episode also explores Bartolotta's personal experience working in tech, where she witnessed offshoring firsthand, raised civil rights concerns, and later became the subject of retaliation after filing complaints. Her reporting examines how visa dependency, restricted worker mobility, benching practices, and green card manipulation raise serious legal and ethical concerns.In the closing commentary, Mark Krikorian, the Center's executive director and podcast host, highlights how Virginia's new governor moved immediately to turn the state into a sanctuary jurisdiction, underscoring how quickly policy can be reversed when changes are not embedded in statute. He argues that this lesson applies at the federal level as well, and that the Trump administration must prioritize lasting legislative reforms if immigration policy is to endure beyond a single administration.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration StudiesGuestAmanda Bartolotta is an investigative reporter for WorldNetDailyRelatedAmanda Bartolotta's Author PageForeign Influence and Lobbying Network HubAmericans Left Behind: IT Serve and the Big Business of Labor ArbitrageVisa Power, Political Influence and the Big Business of Labor ArbitrageIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

A new episode of Parsing Immigration Policy examines the controversy surrounding foreign truck drivers and the issuance of non-domiciled commercial driver's licenses (CDLs). It also offers policy recommendations for the U.S. Department of Transportation and Congress to address safety and labor concerns in the trucking industry.The episode features Gord Magill, a third-generation truck driver and author of the forthcoming book End of the Road: Inside the War on Truckers (March release). Drawing on decades of firsthand experience, Magill challenges the claim, frequently promoted by industry lobbyists, that the United States faces a shortage of truck drivers. Instead, he argues the real problem is driver retention due to low wages and undesirable working conditions.Key issues include:The rapid increase in non-domiciled CDLs, originally intended to address interstate residency issues but now widely abused;How a “driver shortage” narrative has been used to suppress wages and justify expanded pipelines of cheap foreign labor;States issuing CDLs through training centers that fail to meet federal safety and English-language proficiency standards;The rise of “chameleon” companies that evade accountability by dissolving and re-forming under new LLCs after repeated safety violations;The use of overseas-based trucking firms in the hiring of U.S. truckers;Trump-era enforcement efforts aimed at restoring safety on America's highways.In the closing commentary, Mark Krikorian, executive director and podcast host, flags a Center blog post on a recent New York Times interview in which President Trump again expressed his support for continued high levels of legal immigration. Krikorian points out that this is not new and that the president is not a restrictionist, but rather a transitional figure, paving the way for the next generation of Republican leaders who do support lower levels of overall immigration.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration StudiesGuestGord Magill is a third-generation trucker and authorRelatedGord Magill's Substack, “Autonomous Truck(er)s”“I'm an American Trucker.

Welcome back to Scene Missing, the show where we dig past the highlight reels and get into the real story. This time, Gabriel Hardman, Ian Brill, and I take a hard, unsentimental look at the career of Burl Ives—a performer whose legacy is far bigger, messier, and more complicated than the warm baritone most people remember.We start with the role that earned him Hollywood's highest honor: his Oscar-winning turn as Rufus Hannassey in The Big Country, opposite Gregory Peck, Jean Simmons, and Charlton Heston—a performance that weaponized charm into something quietly menacing. From there, we contrast it with the brutal, snowbound moral reckoning of Day of the Outlaw, where Ives delivers one of the coldest outlaw portrayals ever put on film. We also explore his unexpected presence in prestige drama, including Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, sharing the screen with Paul Newman and Elizabeth Taylor, and how his earthy gravitas grounded Tennessee Williams' overheated world.On television, we revisit his folksy patriarch on O.K. Crackerby!, his later dramatic turn on The Bold Ones: The Lawyers, and how TV both extended and softened his public image. And yes—we absolutely talk about the role that permanently etched him into pop culture: the voice of Sam the Snowman in Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, a performance so comforting it practically erased the edge of the man behind it.But we don't stop at acting. Ives' massive influence as a folk singer is front and center—from “Blue Tail Fly” to “Big Rock Candy Mountain”—along with the career-altering moment that still sparks controversy: his testimony before the House Un-American Activities Committee, where he named names, including Pete Seeger, reshaping both of their legacies in opposite directions. This isn't a tribute. It's an honest conversation about talent, ambition, fear, and compromise—and how one man could be a beloved storyteller, a terrifying screen presence, and a cautionary tale all at once.
