Talking Border Horror: Slam the Gavel Podcast with Amy van der Linde

April 4, 2022 by Todd Bensman

 Slam the Gavel welcomes Todd Bensman, M.A. and Author to the show. Todd Bensman  is a full-time Texas-based Senior National Security Fellow for the Center for Immigration Studies, a D.C. based policy institute examining immigration and he is the author of “America’s Covert Border War, The Untold Story Of The Nation’s Battle To Prevent Jihadist Infiltration,” published February 23rd, 2021.
     This book by journalist Todd Bensman, AMERICA’S COVERT BORDER WAR, is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble. His 13-year work of journalism finally settles, for the first time, one of the nation’s most contentious and politically powerful ideas about the southern border: that Islamic jihadists might infiltrate over it and commit terrorist acts. 
     Perhaps no other idea about the American border has sown more conflict, claims, counter-claims, rebuttals and false narratives on all sides as this one. This book provides a first comprehensive neutral baseline of truth about the threat, goring oxen on both sides of the partisan divide. It reveals, for the first time, that after 9/11 America mounted secret (ongoing) counterterrorism campaigns at the southern border and far beyond – and that they have worked surprisingly well to date, preventing attack on the homeland.
     This is the untold story of those hidden American border programs, how they succeeded, why they’re faltering at a time when the risk of border infiltration attack is elevated, and what should be done to repair the enterprise before Americans finally suffer the consequences.
    Excellent interview with Todd Bensman and more to come!
