    Not all cultures are compatible with America. Islam and Sharia law that see women and people of other faiths as second class are not going to become Americans. Cultures that encourage dishonesty and theft will not become Americans

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Trump Wants to Bring Back Alcatraz as Prison for Worst Offenders
Q: Alfred's mom is saying, unbelievable, their own countries don't take them. They have the obligation to take them back.
The host notes that many countries have refused to take back their citizens, and discusses how the administration uses trade leverage and immigration policy as negotiation tools to encourage repatriation, while highlighting the broader debate over third-country solutions like Rwanda or El Salvador.
Fake News Accusations Could Deplatform Mainstream Outlets
Q: What is transnational repression and how is it being addressed in the United States?
Transnational repression involves authoritarian entities using intimidation and surveillance tactics against critics abroad, including harassment, private investigations, and influence over officials, with the FBI official describing specific mechanisms such as harassment, surveillance, and even threats to families. The host frames this as a legitimate national security concern that mainstream coverage should scrutinize and contextualize rather than sensationalize.

Q: What do you think about the sanctuary states and their resistance to federal law enforcement?
There's a gray area since it raises questions on state rights versus federal authority, a debate ongoing since the Civil War.

Q: Are there not a bunch of jobs to be had? Why are all my liberal friends saying that unemployment is so high?
