Two connected news stories from the past week show how illegal immigration into the United States is changing the country, and that the Biden administration seems to want it that way. Mexico’s National Institute of Migration reported this week that between January and May of this year, nearly 1.4 million undocumented immigrants from a staggering 177 countries traveled through Mexico to the United States. At the same time, the Biden administration announced a new policy that will grant legal protections to about 500,000 illegal immigrants already in the United States against deportation, if they are spouses of citizens.

The big news this week was Hunter Biden’s conviction by a Delaware jury on three federal felony gun charges. For Peter Schweizer, though, that looks more like pulling over a bank robber to give him a speeding ticket. The jury took three hours to agree on guilty verdicts for all charges in what proved a cut-and-dry case. Hunter Biden bought a gun, then lied on the background form by checking “no” when asked if he was a drug user, and possessed the gun while addicted to crack cocaine. The judge said Hunter, the son of President Joe Biden, will be sentenced within the usual 120 days, which would fall prior to the November election.

The Deep State is real– a swamp full of disease regardless of who is in office. Like any swamp, it festers because it doesn’t move. But when reformers are appointed to run offices or agencies within the swampy backwaters of the Deep State, swamp creatures move like lightning. They go after the reformers. The Drill Down’s guest on the most recent episode, Prof. Mark Moyar, has the scars to prove it.

Pro-Hamas protests at universities around the country exposed the hidden organizers who are buying the tents, printing the signs, and in many cases, paying professional protesters to incite and radicalize students. Various campus student groups and pro-Palestinian organizations receive funding from Saudi Arabia and Qatar, which also pay for their students to attend American schools. But there are other, even more troubling funders of student activism and campus unrest. Most prominent among them? The Chinese Communist Party. The most recent episode of The Drill Down explores the hidden hand of Beijing in the campus upheavals.

The Biden administration is using federal government resources, and taxpayer money, to conduct the sort of mudslinging that has traditionally been done by political campaigns. The tactic is known as “lawfare.” That’s the focus of the most recent episode of The Drill Down, where hosts Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers go into the weeds to show how the Biden administration is coordinating all four of the legal prosecutions against Biden’s opponent in the November presidential election, former President Donald Trump.

A new report by the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has validated a key claim in Peter Schweizer’s latest book, Blood Money – finding persuasive evidence that China has been subsidizing the manufacturing and exporting of illicit fentanyl precursor chemicals and other synthetic narcotics through tax rebates and other means. Schweizer welcomed the validation of his book’s central theme --that Communist China is at war with the United States, poisoning American youth with fentanyl, American minds with TikTok, American streets with automatic weapons, and American health with engineered viruses like COVID-19.
