We have the means to discourage and prevent illegal aliens. We simply haven’t been using it, but they are effective when used.

I once read, in an old history of cryptanalysis, that the Zimmermann Telegram was a British forgery and roorback.
2. Unrestricted Mexican immigration was something LBJ had been fomenting for a dozen years by the time that bill passed. He'd tried to flout President Eisenhower and hold the floodgates open back in 1953-4, but Eisenhower euchred "Landslide Linton" by dealing with the problem via Executive Orders.
If it was, I’m unsure why the German ambassador to America admitted it was genuine.
I suspect what you’re thinking of is the fact that its discovery was a result of British spying and they concealed the way it was discovered to protect sources of intelligence.
I wasn't aware the German ambassador had "owned up" to its genuineness. When and why would he do that? Taciturnity is the soul of diplomacy.
Misremembered myself. Apparently it was the German Foreign Minister who admitted the genuineness of the message, twice.
