NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. In 2004, far-right activist Michelle Malkin published a racist book called In Defense of Internment. It argued that the United States was right to forcibly remove 120,000 people of Japanese ancestry from their homes during World War II 70 percent of whom were American citizens and place them in internment camps for years, where they often lived behind barbed-wire fences under the watch of armed guards.

On Friday afternoon, Malkin was a featured speaker at this years Conservative Political Action Conference, speaking from the same stage where Vice President Mike Pence had spoken just a few hours earlier, and where President Donald Trump spoke Saturday.

Malkin who, it bears repeating, wrote a book that defended putting an ethnic group in government internment camps told the crowd that current immigration levels amount to an invasion that endangers our general welfare and the blessings of liberty.
