Birth tourists. Sham marriages. Fake Mexicans. And a Chinese “honeypot” named Fang Fang. Peter Schweizer says they’re all connected, and he shows how on the latest episode of the Drill Down podcast. First, the Trump administration issued an executive order that targets the practice of “birth tourism” and surrogate births, mostly by Chinese nationals, which were exposed in Peter Schweizer’s bestselling book, The Invisible Coup.

Far-left donors, advisers, and legacy media outlets have finally caught on: They realize their radical agenda will fail miserably in the Midwest if they share it openly. Sand’s carefully crafted image as a flag-saluting, new-breed independent is no accident. It’s all part of a larger plan. Sand, who ran unopposed for the Democratic nomination, wants everyone to know that he hunts and frequently reads the Bible. He’s also partial to…
