What this episode is about

The discussion highlights concerns over the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood and organizations like CAIR in Texas, suggesting a perceived risk of the state adopting Sharia law as a consequence of inadequate vigilance and response. The dialogue emphasizes the need for greater awareness and strong enforcement of regulations to counteract these influences, drawing on historical incidents and the ongoing challenges faced in various U.S. regions.

Key takeaways

  • Texas' AG race shines a light on the perception versus reality of state-level 'threats.' Who truly poses a danger?
  • History repeats itself: decades of neglect have led to the current outcry against perceived infiltrations in Texas.
  • Surprising fact: Texas has over 300 mosques, the highest in the U.S. Are they really a threat or just a community?
  • The connection between local incidents and global narratives fuels paranoia, but where's the evidence of a coordinated threat?
  • Challenging Sharia law in Texas raises questions: protection of the Constitution or selective enforcement of values?

Chip, welcome. How are you? Well, I'm doing great. Glenn, you just downgraded me, though. I'm a candidate for Texas Attorney General, not United States Attorney General.

Uh, but I am Yeah, you're right. No, no, no, no, no. But I'm uh delighted to be running for attorney general for the Republic of Texas.

Yes. Um, so um Chip, when you saw this come from uh the governor, you and I have talked about things like this for a long time. this this this that we should have done this with with care and the Muslim Brotherhood a long time ago. Instead, under uh I believe it started really under George Bush, but then it just got worse and worse and worse. We were letting care and the Muslim Brotherhood and everybody else into our own Department of Homeland Security. I mean, decades ago. tell me a little bit about why it's important what Texas did and and then let's follow it up with enforcement of that.

Yeah. Well, first of all, uh you and I have talked about this for a long time as I think I've talked to you on your show. Uh it was the last substantive conversation I had with Charlie Kirk. uh because it is very clear to me it was clear to him I think it's clear to you that our side for for way too long even today uh although I think it's waking up have been asleep to the war on the west that has been in process now for decades and everyone's waking up to London they're waking up to Paris they're seeing now Dearborn and Minneapolis and then oh my gosh mom Donnie then they're like wait a minute there's a problem in Texas too and some of us have been saying that for a Um, and going all the way back to the Holyland Foundation, right? The Holy Land Foundation, which was a Dallas Fort Worth issue 25 years ago. You and I talked about that last time, but for for listeners, understand how long this has

gone back. You've got unindicted co-conspirators associated with the Holyland Foundation that are tied to CARE. You have CARES celebrating October 7th. You have all sorts of indications. In fact, a story yesterday in the New York Post, our friend Amy Mack and her great organization, they helped break that story and and get it out into the world about the extent to which care is tied and their financial ties to the student issues on campuses, all of the the connections that they've got to the radical terrorism that we've got to connect all of those dots. And now enter the governor, I think appropriately. You know, they've been targeting Epic. They passed something in the legislature this last spring, but we got to be much more aggressive. The governor is right to be aggressive here. uh this will give increased scrutiny and tools and I've got to dive into exactly what those tools are with respect to what it opens

up at the state level but the mere uh statement by the governor that both you know obviously dealing with the Muslim Brotherhood but the but care that CARE is in fact an organization that we should treat as such is so critically important because it's masquerading as some you know oh the Council on you know American Islamic Relations or it's crazy. Like it's and and the idea that they should get tax breaks is insane, which is why I introduced legislation to take away their tax benefits. But that's the bare minimum. I can tell you, and I can't go too far into it, lots of really good conversations are occurring with the appropriate officials, law enforcement entities in Washington to follow the money. We've got to follow the money. I believe that there is a criminal organization that is connecting all of these dots. You and I talked about that before. not just the the Islam issue and Islamification of

America, but also the Soros DAS, the open borders, uh, Antifa, Southern Poverty Law Center, and by the way, SPLC is now putting a target on me because I'm daring to speak out about this. It's all connected. It's all connected. Glenn,

so what is it the state can do? I mean, first of all, I think for anybody who doesn't understand and Texans, wake up. If you lose Texas, you lose the West. As Texas goes, so goes America. And as America goes, so goes the rest of the world. Um, and you know, if you're looking at Dearbornne, you're looking at um, you know, these places in Minnesota and you're seeing that and you think that's not related to you, it is worse in Texas. The numbers in Texas are staggering and what they're I mean just what's happening in the small little town that we my studios are in. It's the most diverse zip code in America, Los Scalinus, Texas. And I have been ringing this bell for 12 years. When I first got there, I started doing stuff on the Sharia law, the movement to bring Sharia law to Los Kolinus, Texas. And Chip, I I got to send you a copy of this this interview I did. I did it with the with the imams of this the biggest mosque in

Loscolinus. And one of them halfway through just blurted out that Yeah. I mean, we all agree that hands should be chopped off, you know, if you steal. And I just let him go for a while. Um, and it was clear Sharia law is happening. And now they are they are they have put these Sharia courts into place to handle things because well, it's their right to handle it as a religion. No, no, not when it comes to not when it comes to usurping the Constitution of Texas or the United States of America. And that's happening now in Texas. So, give me give the person who's not necessarily paying attention some idea of what is coming and is here already in Texas.

Well, well, first of all, you know, you've got an explosive growth of the mosques that are growing in Texas. We've got over 300 in counting, more being planted in Texas every day than any other state in the union. You've got the Islamic Center down in Houston, which is 150,000 square feet that has, you know, major issues. You You notice you saw that imam down in Houston that was going around saying, "Well, you can't put this on the shelf." Uh, you know, they're trying to take over and change what should be being done down there. That's implementation of Sharia. There are activist Sharia courts in Texas, which the governor rightly yesterday said that they're going to go shut down because they're in conflict with Texas law. And notably with what he's doing with the with the uh declaration, the governor is making very clear that he can connect the dots with the legislation that the legislature passed with that declaration

to say no land interest can be acquired with anybody associated with these organizations. Now again, I think this is the tip of the spear. I think this is the I don't want I don't mean this negatively. It's the kind of obvious let's go after these guys, but there are myriad organizations that we need to go after and shut down. And let let's be clear. I don't even know why we're allowing any foreign nationals to own Texas land. Like literally, let's just we very aggressive and very clear. I don't know why massive corporations are owning our land. By the way, separate issue, but all related. I'm I'm as bothered also by tech, you know, boardrooms in New York, buying up our ranches and our meat packing plants and everything else because again, this is all related. the red green alliance, the Marxist Islamic issue, it's all connected to root out and destroy Western civilization. So that is to say

what the governor did is really critically important. It is a uh step so that we can go stop some of these things in these enclaves like Epic City. But we need to be much more aggressive. And again, I introduced legislation, as you know, to vet people for Sharia law and adherence to Sharia law when we're admitting them into the United States. But today, I'm filing a bill called the pause act to pause all immigration until we have sorted our crap out, until we've dealt with H-1Bs, until we've gotten rid of diversity and chain m diversity visas and chain migration, until we've dealt with ply or veto, which by the way we need to challenge, which was the Supreme Court case saying that we must educate illegal children until we've dealt with birthright citizenship, until we've cleaned up our our mess, until we've uh put in place uh standards for not admitting people that are adherent to Sharia law till we're removing people

that need to be removed. Why are we importing more people? Let's put Americans to work. Let's stop destroying our culture. Let's freeze it. In Texas, let's do exactly what the governor is doing and more.

Did you see what's happening in Germany? In Germany, uh, one of their ministers said, "There's no longer a problem in Syria. The war is over. It's peaceful. everybody in Germany who came for, you know, refugee status to Germany, you're all going home. Now, they're not going to do it. However, um they did strip citizenship from a Syrian immigrant who praised Hamas as heroes. Um and this same minister came out and said, you know, your citizenship has to be, you know, contingent on shared systems of values. and uh they're starting at least to talk about stepping stepping up. I think this is the right thing to do.

Have we thought about Have we thought about if you have refugee status and your part of the world has now calmed down saying get out, go home.

Absolutely. We should do that and we've been talking about that uh and the need to reverse frankly the abuse. So there's two elements, okay? The reversal of the abuse of asylum, parole, refugee laws that were abused, right? We had people coming in who really weren't in need of refugee status or they weren't, you know, uh, you know, actually qualified for asylum and they were abusing parole, was supposed to be a case-by case basis. So there's that whole mess. Then when you even had a legitimate case for asylum or for refugee status, then we should review those and say, "Okay, guess what? things have calmed down, you can go back. Those are very specific provisions in law, you know, that are designed about specific persecution or very specific situations in war or otherwise. And when that's no longer the case, then you no longer have the reason to have that qualified status in the United States. So, should we we should

address that? But but let's remember, Glenn, and I think this is so important that we have to understand like we're talking about the Muslim Brotherhood. I don't have it right in front of me, but I was read the the proclamation by the governor and he was pointing out that, you know, when that organization was founded like a hundred years ago or something, you know, early last century, that it was that it was founded, it was very specific about jihad and very specific about jihad being an obligation, right? And that that obligation comes from Allah and that and that's for everybody adherent to Islam in the eyes of the Muslim Brotherhood.

And so understand what's happening and and people need to realize that because this is you know everybody wants to go and and say well you know we can't talk about this because of the first amendment. Bull that is not true. Okay. First of all we can talk about it because of the first amendment. Second of all uh we can talk about it because yes you can believe what you want right our constitution our bill of rights says that. But when you are turning that into a political movement designed very specifically to undermine our country and to undermine the rule of law, then no, you do not have a right to do that.

You do certainly do not have a right to be admitted into our country. Uh and we need to recognize that and address it or we're going to lose. And then we're going to be like Germany and we're going to be like London. We're going to be like Paris and we're going to be looking around going what do we do now? Right? It's, you know, we have 10% of the population and growing and, you know, 1,500 uh seats in elected officials throughout the United Kingdom. You've got 85 uh jurisdictions in uh Scotland where they can choose Sharia law instead of uh or you know in as an alternative to Scottish law. We can't get to that point. We have to stop this right now.
