Bestselling author and investigative journalist Peter Schweizer warned that foreign governments are weaponizing immigration to undermine American sovereignty during C-SPAN appearance on Tuesday. Schweizer detailed how Mexico, China, and the Muslim Brotherhood are all exploiting migration to advance their geopolitical interests against the United States.
Appearing on C-SPAN’s Washington Journal program, Schweizer explained how Mexico uses its vast network of consulates (53) in the US to encourage anti-ICE demonstrations in the US. There are Mexican government officials who live permanently in the US who represent Mexican nationals before Mexico’s parliament,” Schweizer said. He read a quote from his most recent #1 bestseller The Invisible Coup detailing a May 2024 meeting held at the Mexican consulate in Oklahoma City that convened Mexican diplomats from those consulates, plus government ministers from Mexico itself, and Democratic Party activists to discuss how to turn “red states into blue states.”
One Mexican senator openly declared, “We’re taking back he territory that was stolen from us,” Schweizer said.
C-SPAN’s host asked Schweizer, “What’s the ‘Invisible’ part of the book’s title?
“The invisible part is the political intention and design and encouragement with what’s going on,” Schweizer replied. “That’s invisible. The ‘coup’ part is that there is a political component to this. The goal here is to actually shift the political fortunes in the United States.”
The host asked whether President Trump’s policies had fixed the problems he identified in the book.
Schweizer, himself the child of immigrants from Europe, replied that “closing the border was great, but we have to deal with the political nature of some io the things that are taking place.”
He went on to describe the “birth tourism” tactic of the Communist China. Chinese Communist Party newspapers instruct their leadership class how to exploit American birthright citizenship, he said. More than 1,000 different “birth tourism” companies exist in China and advertise through social media. Research for the book estimates that approximately 100,000 Chinese babies are born annually on US soil (including US territories like Guam and Saipan) for the past 13 years. “America now has potentially 1 million citizens raised entirely in China who will vote in American elections and qualify for government jobs,” Schweizer said.
