A review to Ken Cuccinelli's views on immigration, and a visit to his immigrant past

Ken Cuccinelli is the acting Deputy Secretary for the department of Homeland Security. He previously served as the acting director for the United States Customs and Immigration Services (USCIS) and became the public face for the Trump administration's immigration policies. He's a Catholic, a conservative and an immigration hardliner, who once proposed to make it illegal for employees to speak Spanish at the workplace. He descends from Italian immigrants on his father's side, and from Irish immigrants on his mother's side. On this episode I talk about his views on immigration and the anti-immigrant sentiment that his Italian great grandfather encountered when he arrived in the United States in the late 1800's.
