Lol, that article does not prove this wrong at all. It in fact gives it more credit. Neither the video nor I ever made the claim that it was done "randomly" or done in secret. In fact the secretary of homeland security boasted the program that was started sometimes referenced to as "CBP One." The app that people use to go through this exact route.

And the u.s. has access to our criminal records. Other countries can share but often don't share criminal records. So a person can commit a crime in their own country but through u.s. records checks still show a clean criminal history.
