“Some U.S. Senators think the REAL ID law does not go far enough. What we need is an ID card with extensive data. Which two Senators are supporters for a high tech biometric ID card? Chuck Schumer and Lindsey Graham. Does this come as a surprise? How can the DHS reduce public resistance? I’ll tell you how: with stories about a tidal wave of illegal immigration. There is no tidal wave of immigration. It’s an uptick in what has become a fading social phenomenon. There is tidal wave of orchestrated stories about teenagers from Central America. As media orchestrations go, this is one of the more effective examples. The REAL ID card is part of the government’s inevitable quest for more data.”
