But I want to get right after something that I think is perhaps one of the most um Most compelling, most important, most urgent things that the United States has been dealing with, and that has to do with mass migration. And it got nobody better. Then Peter Schweitzer. He's got a new book out. Peter Schweitzer is the president of the Government Accountability Institute, of which I'm associated and do some work with.
He's one of the most important investigative journalists we've had. In fact, if you look over the last, I think, 20 years. Nobody has sold more books and As an investigative journalist, than Peter Schweitzer. And so you know it's going to be well researched. You know it's going to come with all the receipts.
And he's got a new book out called The Invisible Coup. Uh welcome Peter Schweitzer. Jason, great to be with you. Thanks for having me.
Well, look, I I had the privilege and honor of having a look at this before it came out.
So I have actually read this book. And it is absolutely stunning. Let's walk through the thesis here because You know, I think there are a lot of people out there who say, ah, well, you know, this immigration thing, you know, let's be careful. But there are some. efforts out there to truly Change the trajectory of the United States of America.
And they're not all. coming from a place of sweetness. Yeah. Yeah, that's right. You know, look, we've been debating immigration in this country for the last 10 years.
And we've looked at how it affects wages and the economy, how it affects our culture, how it affects crime in our streets. And President Trump was elected on a mission to seal the border and to get rid of criminal elements that are in the country, all of which is fantastic. He deserves enormous credit for that. This book, however, looks at something deeper, which is not just mass migration, but the weaponization. Of migration.
And so, what do I mean by that? When you look and debate immigration, you're primarily talking about the immigrants, the people that are coming, those that have criminal records, those that came into the country and are rapists. My book is about the people that are actually driving mass migration because they have an agenda to undermine our country. And that includes actors like China, Mexico, the Muslim Brotherhood, but also some people domestically as well that see a political advantage to engaging in this.
So the book is called The Invisible Coup because let's start with China. Because the China's doing some things behind the scenes where they they figure out where Any vulnerability is But talk to us about what you were able to find there. Yeah. Yeah, you know, so China is very sophisticated in the way that they've exploited our immigration laws for the purposes of subversion. And all you have to do is look at the debate over birthright citizenship.
You know, the Supreme Court's going to hear that case this spring. And birthright citizenship is basically the claim that, you know, if you happen to be in the United States, you could be a tourist from Denmark or a tourist from China, and you give birth to a child in the United States, that child is automatically granted U.S. citizenship. And we really don't have a sense, the federal government doesn't have a sense of how much of a problem this is because we don't collect data on it. If you get a birth certificate, your child is born here.
They don't put on their birth certificate the nationality of the parent.
So we literally have no clue. The Chinese have actually looked at this, and the numbers of just Chinese nationals doing this are stunning. And the remarkable thing is that. They have a system for doing this. The Chinese government has encouraged people to do this.
They've run articles in the government newspapers saying you have a right to do this, you should do this. And the numbers are mind blowing. The Chinese government estimates that over the last thirteen years, every single year, roughly 100,000 Chinese nationals have done this. And what does that mean? That means we're looking at, based on their government estimates, more than 1 million.
US citizens, I'll put that in air quotes, one million US citizens who Have never lived in the United States. They were born here. The Chinese parents came here for the purpose of giving birth here. They gave birth, then they returned to China. The child is raised in China in CCP schools, raised by the elite.
And when they turn 18, They get to vote in U. S. elections. They get to take government jobs. They get all kinds of benefits.
This is a sophisticated subversion effort by the Chinese government to manipulate, and we are totally, totally oblivious to it.
Okay. They also use surrogacy in a level that is very sophisticated. Talk us through what you found there. Yeah, you and I both, after you'd read the book, talked about this may be the most disturbing element of it.
So you've got the birth citizenship where a Chinese couple will come to the United States and give birth. You also have powerful men in China linked with the CCP who are renting essentially wombs from women in the United States. They call them carriers. The Chinese member of the elite will donate sperm. A woman will agree to carry in the United States, give birth to the child.
The mother is paid. That child is now born to an American mother and is born in the United States, but that child is immediately sent back to China.
Now, again, we don't have any idea of the scale of this. The government doesn't keep statistics on this, but we know a couple of things. We know, first of all, that there are some members of the Elite who are doing this on a massive scale. The Wall Street Journal had a piece just a couple weeks ago about one Chinese man tied to the CCP elite that has more than 100 children. Born in the United States this way.
And they're all U. S. citizens, by the way. And in the research that I lay out in the book in describing how this works, we found that just in Southern California, there are 107 Chinese-owned surrogacy companies that arrange these kinds of deals for members of the Chinese elite.
So again, this is a massive intrusion. And so I think when people look at Birthright citizenship, it's not some random thing that kind of happens. You actually have actors like the Chinese who on a grand and massive scale are using this to create a subversive element. And by the way, they did this in Hong Kong for a while, about 20 years ago. The government of Hong Kong shut it off.
Said, we know exactly why you're doing this. They shut it off.
So we need to do the same thing here.
Well, and of course, once you have a son or daughter who is a United States citizen, then you too can actually become a citizen.
So you get kind of three for one out of that. Let's move to Mexico here because they're doing some nefarious things as well, because they believe in reconquista. Explain that to us. Yeah, and you know, when I first saw this, I thought, no, this can't actually be true, but the words speak for themselves. I mean, there are numerous quotes in the book.
From Mexican officials talking about how they view mass migration from Mexico, from Latin America for that matter, coming into the United States as an opportunity to retake territories that they lost to us in the 19th century. Let me just read a couple briefly to you, Jason, so people realize that, and I could read dozens of quotes on this. This is from a Mexican government report in December of 2024 by one of President Scheinbaum, President of Mexico's top aides. Quote, we already know that the Mexican population in the United States reaches 39.9 million. We Mexicans are reclaiming our territory.
or this from a powerful senator who sits on the National Defense Committee, which is the most powerful committee in the Mexican Senate, quote, Mexicans are in our territories, California, Nevada, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado and Wyoming. We're going to take back the territory that was stolen from us. And literally, there are dozens of quotes in the book from senior officials saying the same thing. And it's not just bravado. As I point out in the book, Jason, Mexico actually has an infrastructure of Mexican government officials who live inside the United States full-time, who are engaged in political activities to undermine the United States.
They're behind some of these violent protests and riots that we're seeing. And they're also intruding in our political elections, trying to defeat Trump. These are Mexican government officials trying to defeat Trump because of what he's doing at the border. It's a massive, massive intrusion into our sovereignty. And again, it's different than the Chinese methodology, but it is an absolute effort to undermine the United States through immigration.
This is Ainsley Earhart. Thank you for joining me for the 52-episode podcast series, The Life of Jesus. A listening experience that will provide hope, comfort, and understanding of the greatest story ever told. Listen in. follow now at FoxnewsPodcasts.com or wherever you listen to podcasts.
We're, of course, talking to Peter Schweitzer, author of The Invisible Coup. And part of the way the Mexicans are doing this, Peter. They have consulates here. I mean these are You know, Mexican uh uh you know territory, if you will, a a consulate. Um they have a lot of them and they're using them for these nefarious purposes.
Yes, it's it's this was another thing that was surprising to me.
So every country basically has a consulate. They have an embassy and they have consulates in the United States. China and the United Kingdom, Great Britain, have six and seven, respectively, consulates inside the United States. Mexico has 53. They have 53 consulates.
And what I point out in the book is not only are consulate officials involved in organizing some of these anti-ICE protests, they're also trying to defeat Trump and elect Democrats, which diplomats are not supposed to do. There was a meeting, for example, in May of 2024, the presidential election year, at the Oklahoma City Consulate of Mexico. We got a hold of the transcript of this meeting, so that's where we get these details. And at this meeting, they pulled together Mexican diplomats from consulates from Los Angeles to Orlando and everybody in between. They also had officials come from Mexico City, and the foreign minister of Mexico addressed them.
In a video speech. There was one other group that was there with all these diplomats, by the way, and that was Democratic Party activists and political organizers. And the discussion included a conversation in which they said: We turned California from red to blue, we turned Arizona from red to blue. We're working to turn the rest of the country from red to blue. Republicans need to learn that if you F around, you're going to find out.
So, this is blatant, blatant political activity by Mexican diplomats. They're not supposed to be doing that. And I think we have to have action in the form of scaling back, shutting down some of these consulates, and expelling diplomats that are engaging in this kind of blatant partisan political activity. And in the last 45 seconds, we have, it is unbelievable to me, but there are people who serve in the parliament in Mexico. who live in in the United States and their constituents are people that are in the United States illegally.
Yeah, yeah, it's remarkable. They elect what are called migrant senators and migrant deputies for their parliaments, and they live in places like Los Angeles and Arizona. In fact, the one from Arizona, Senator Ruez, wants to make California a state of Mexico. And so, yeah, this is again a blatant interference in our sovereignty. They should not have elected officials, Mexican-elected officials, living in the United States and pursuing Mexico's agenda with people that are living within our borders.
Unbelievable to me. This whole book is just chock full of revelations and statistics. I think there's like a thousand footnotes and stuff like this. Super well researched. Right at the top of the charts at Amazon.
I'm sure it'll be right at the top of the charts in the New York Times as well. It's called The Invisible Coup. The Invisible Coup, Peter Schweitzer's new book. It just came out yesterday.
So, congratulations to that. Peter Schweitzer, thanks for joining us on the Brian Killmee Show. Really do appreciate it. Thanks for having me, Jason. Appreciate it.
