In the report, "Biden’s Border - Immigration Politics, the Democrats and the 2020 elections," Todd lists off the corporations that stand to benefit from Biden's endorsement of a "virtual wall."

Todd helps Rania Khalek and Kevin Gosztola challenge the inordinate focus on Republicans and their anti-immigrant vitriol. It all too often leaves out the bipartisan nature of the deportation machine. In fact, as Todd highlights, more immigrants were deported under President Barack Obama than Trump.

Few journalists have the expertise of Todd. He authored the books, Empire of Borders: The Expansion of the US Border Around the World and Storming the Wall: Climate Change, Migration, and Homeland Security. He focuses on how US border policy is exported to countries around the globe, and he has a forthcoming book, Build Bridges, Not Walls: A Journey to a World Without Borders, that can be ordered at City Lights.
