This Week on The Green Line Radio Show
In a deeply personal episode of The Green Line, Host Art Del Cueto reflects on how growing up with a hard of hearing father influenced his voice and communication style. He opens up about the impact of the show, not just as a platform for educating the public on Border Patrol and immigration issues, but as a space to share personal stories—like his daughter's enjoyment of the show and his son's experience receiving hate mail due to their resemblance.
Art shares the heartbreaking story of his 17-year-old niece, tragically killed by a suspected Motorcyclist under the Influence. The incident, which ended in a fiery crash, left Art and his family devastated and searching for closure. He expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support from the law enforcement community in reaching out to the family.
The episode also takes aim at misinformation surrounding Border Patrol. Art shares frustrations with online groups of former immigration agents who spread misleading narratives and criticizes public figures like Cudahy California Vice Mayor Cynthia Gonzalez for allegedly encouraging gang violence against ICE agents. Art urges accountability for officials who incite violence, especially through social media.
Art takes time to clarify the public's confusion in Social Media post between Border Patrol and ICE, outlining their different training and responsibilities. He also draws comparisons between the scrutiny faced by law enforcement and educators, calling out inconsistencies in public and media perceptions.
On the immigration front, Art highlights a recent decline in crossing numbers while warning about ongoing security risks, including arrests of foreign nationals with serious criminal records. He stresses the need for stronger vetting and expresses concern over “gotaways” who evade detection entirely.
Finally, Art makes a major announcement: this is the last Green Line show to air on KNST 790 AM. The show is continuing to be available on podcast platforms, including Spotify and iHeartRadio. He thanks the station and listeners for years of support and invites listeners to follow the show online
