The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon

By Peter Schweizer

Book Overview

AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Every day, ICE is arresting hundreds of illegal immigrants with a criminal record. They didn't just come here. They were sent here.

Our debates about immigration revolve around what happens with immigrants once they arrive. We need to start talking about who is sending them and why. For decades, establishment elites sold us the story of immigration as a compassionate renewal of the American Dream within a harmonious melting pot.

But beneath that narrative lies a different reality: Mass migration has morphed into the most powerful political weapon ever aimed at the United States--one engineered by elites at home and aided by adversaries abroad. Now Peter Schweizer, the bestselling investigative journalist of our time, is blowing the lid off this whole series of schemes.

Backed by years of forensic fieldwork and a trove of confidential documents and intercepted communications--linking political leaders, global NGOs, and even drug cartels--Schweizer detonates a political shock wave eclipsing his past bombshells, revelations that have sparked FBI probes and bipartisan reforms.

Urgent, shocking, and overflowing with national security implications, The Invisible Coup makes America's greatest political threat visible for all to see--and solve.

Customer Reviews

Here is One Way to Look at the Issue...

I find this author to be a bit nauseating. He seems to have done an exemplary job exposing the lies and hypocrisy of the Left - if one can truly believe every word he writes. A questionable premise. But the other half of the problem is that the Right does the exact same thing - not a word in the book about this. We have a big problem in our government with insider trading, deals for cash, accepting gifts and favors and then "forgetting" to report them; and, every other sleezy act you can dream up - it's likely been done by elected or appointed people who are or have led our country. This is NOT a single party problem. This is a country-wide problem and it needs to stop. If you're looking for a biased view on corruption in government, this book is for you. If you're looking for a more balanced and truthful narrative, move on. There is nothing to see here.

Dangerous Nonsense

Having been an Asylum Officer with USCIS and Homeland Security in Miami for 18 years, I can tell you in no uncertain terms that this book is more dangerous far right wing nonsense feeding into the Big Lie that illegal immigrants are the source of most all America's woes. It purports to be carefully researched and written, but few if any of the assertions concerning a supposed vast ongoing conspiracy between foreign governments (China, Mexico and Venezuela) and American "Elites" ( basically Democrat lawmakers) in part to flood the United States with illegal immigrants with intention of offsetting the political balance in favor of Democrats, can be independently verified.

Sad

Very sad book and very embarrassing for author.
