Pitfalls of the Visa Waiver Program – IOTW Report

Pitfalls of the Visa Waiver Program

FP: Immigration is a major factor in ever so many of the issues confronting America and Americans, but all too frequently the media neglects to identify or acknowledge the nexus between those issues and immigration. Consequently, many folks fail to recognize just how significant and pervasive the immigration issue is in their lives and why failures of the immigration system have the potential to profoundly impact them and our nation.

On December 23, 2018 the CBS News program, 60 Minutes aired a report, Inside The Corruption Allegations Plaguing Malta.

At first glance, it would be hard to imagine that Malta’s alleged corruption could have relevance to the immigration issue or that Americans should be concerned about the alleged corruption in Malta.  Malta is a small, indeed, tiny nation located on an archipelago in the central Mediterranean between Sicily and the North African coast with a population of fewer than a half-million citizens (460,297 in 2017 according to Eurostat).

However, diminutive as it might be, Malta presents a serious threat to U.S. national security and public safety because of an ill-conceived program known as the Visa Waiver Program that was first implemented as a pilot program by the Reagan administration.  read more

  1. The enemies outside are never a match for the enemies within.

    Example, the family of Mollie Tibbetts invited an illegal alien who worked with the one who killed her to come live with them because “they have an extra room”. Now.

    Our greatest threats stand next to us at the voting booth.

  2. The United States sells permanent United States’ residency cards to anyone willing to “invest” enough cash money (and pay the lawyers for copying the paperwork).

    Here, Malta, let me get that mote out of your eye.

  3. As of 2016, people from visa waiver countries who have previously traveled to Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, or Yemen on or after March 1, 2011 are no longer qualified for The Visa Waiver Program (VWP).
