Podcasts about immigration policy

In this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor and Kyle Olson examine the tragic Minnesota incident in which a mother was shot by ICE agents, unpacking the rising tensions surrounding immigration enforcement and law enforcement operations. The discussion explores how political rhetoric and misleading narratives can fuel radicalization, escalate confrontations, and distort public understanding of complex immigration issues. Tudor and Kyle also address the psychological toll on individuals drawn into activism and warn against the political exploitation of personal tragedies, calling for a more nuanced and responsible national conversation on immigration policy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why Can't Britain Be More Like Hungary? | Starmer's Brexit Betrayal EXPOSED #Brexit #UKPolitics #Starmer #Hungary #ViktorOrban #FreeSpeech #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #LIVE Tonight, we ask a simple but urgent question: Why can't Britain protect its borders like Hungary does? While Keir Starmer cosies up to the EU and signals a clear desire to drag Britain back into their orbit, the UK's borders remain wide open — despite the clear democratic mandate of Brexit. Hungary proves it doesn't have to be this way. Under Viktor Orbán, Hungary has made its position crystal clear: ❌ No migrant camps ❌ No forced relocation ❌ No weakened borders ❌ No becoming a country of mass immigration As a result, there were fewer than 1,000 illegal entry attempts. What's even more striking? Hungary is still in the EU — and even in Schengen. Orbán has openly warned: "European democracy is in decline. Elections rerun, parties surveilled, candidates blocked, leaders punished for defending borders, free speech sanctioned. Hungary chooses competition over bans and sovereignty over centralised control. That's what democracy looks like. Come and see for yourself." So why won't Starmer listen? Instead of ignoring and betraying the British public, Starmer should take up Viktor Orbán's challenge — and follow Hungary's lead on borders, sovereignty, and democratic accountability.

In this urgent and uncompromising episode, Andrew Parker confronts the growing reality many Western governments refuse to name: we are in a war for our values, our civilization, and the survival of the Jewish people.From the October 7 attacks to the global spread of the call to “globalize the Intifada,” Parker examines the rise of radical Islamist terror, the moral relativism that excuses it, and the political leaders who enable it through feckless governance and open-border policies. He explains why these attacks make the case for Zionism unmistakably clear, why freedom of speech does not extend to incitement of violence, and why pretending this threat will fade on its own is both dangerous and dishonest. This episode challenges listeners to confront uncomfortable truths about terrorism, immigration, Western complicity, and the price of failing to defend moral clarity before it is too late.Support the showThe Andrew Parker Show - Politics, Israel & The Law.

It's hardly a secret that American food companies rely heavily on undocumented immigrants for physical labor. Whether it's the laborers who tend livestock and cultivate crops or workers behind the scenes in meatpacking and other agricultural production plants, our food system is powered by a cheap, willing and, often, undocumented workforce. Yet, intensified immigration enforcement, such as ICE raids, has triggered labor shortages across the food system. And before you think something silly to yourself like “great more opportunity available for native-born workers now,” really consider how many unemployed U.S. citizens (living in a city) would move to a rural area, perform backbreaking work daily, and take an almost 40% percent pay cut (compared to the average nonfarm wage)? Most Americans understand that farm laborers aren't easy to replace. In fact, during the 2024 election cycle, 75% of registered voters believed undocumented immigrants mostly fill jobs US citizens don't want to do. Nevertheless, this isn't about offering amnesty to all undocumented immigrants, but I think our country needs commonsense immigration solutions…especially those focused on safeguarding critical industries that rely on migrant labor. And maybe it should begin with a clearer pathway for migrant farm workers to earn legal status…along with expanding access to the H-2A visa program for non-seasonal agricultural industries.

IMMIGRATION POLICY AND THE EROSION OF CITIZENSHIP Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Hansoncritiques the 1965 Hart-Celler Act for destroying meritocratic immigration in favor of family ties and the 1986 amnesty for failing to secure the border as promised. He argues that maintaining open borders and ignoring laws creates a large, non-citizen constituency that undermines the legal and cultural concept of American citizenship, fundamentally altering the electorate. Hanson contrasts this with the experience of legal immigrants, noting that the distinction of citizenship offers a dignity and equality often unavailable in their countries of origin. NUMBER 2

Why doesn't America match immigration levels to actual job creation? In this episode, Tara breaks down what she calls “Great American Stupid” — the complete disconnect between jobs numbers, immigration policy, and wages. From visa caps that ignore economic reality to Trump's aggressive push to reclaim jobs for Americans, this is a deep dive into how the labor market was distorted — and how it's being reversed.

2025 marked an unprecedented transformation in U.S. immigration policy. Executive orders attempting to end birthright citizenship, expand travel bans, and suspend refugee programs— along with the chaotic H-1B fee proclamation — fundamentally reshaped both legal and humanitarian immigration pathways. In this episode, immigration policy strategist Maunica Sthanki joins host Lauren Clarke to examine the executive action-heavy approach, constitutional challenges, and what 217+ executive orders reveal about presidential power limits. They explore the real-world impacts on refugees, employment-based immigration, and asylum seekers—and what polling data suggests about public perception shifting as restrictive policies play out. Plus, Rob Taylor covers breaking news on Haiti TPS, enhanced vetting requirements, and global immigration tightening trends as we head into 2026's midterm election year.GUEST: Maunica Sthanki, Immigration Policy and Advocacy StrategistHOST: Lauren ClarkeNEWS NERD: Rob TaylorPRODUCER: Adam Belmar Resource Links: https://www.sthankistrategies.com/

From years-long fraud that went unreported, to government officials paralyzed by fears of appearing prejudiced, to deeper questions about whether certain communities are adapting—or choosing not to—host-country norms, Chris examines the policy failures, media blind spots, and civic challenges underlying the scandal. A frank, unfiltered conversation on immigration, governance, and the consequences of looking away.

Shortly after the shooting of two national guard troops in Washington, D.C., the Trump Administration said it was pausing asylum decisions and halting visas for Afghan immigrants. The alleged shooter is Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a Bellingham resident who came to the U.S. from Afghanistan in 2021. The motive for the attack is unknown. One victim – 20 year old Sarah Beckstrom – was killed in Wednesday’s shooting. The attack has prompted the Trump administration to supercharge restrictions on migrants from 19 countries, primarily ones in Africa and the Middle East. And it has left many others in this country fearful about their future as the federal government turns new scrutiny on green cards and asylee statuses that have already been granted. We’re trying to get a sense of how policy actions may impact immigrant communities, so we’re speaking with Luis Cortes Romero. He is an immigration lawyer and managing partner at Novo Legal Group. A note: After our taping, on Tuesday evening, the Department of Homeland Security announced a pause for all immigration applications for people from 19 countries deemed "high risk." Those are the same 19 countries Luis and I discussed that were under some previous restrictions: mainly African and Middle Eastern nations, including Sudan, Somalia and Iran -- also Venezuela, Haiti, and more. DHS says this requires "all aliens meeting the criteria undergo a thorough re-review process." GUESTS: Luis Cortes Romero is an immigration lawyer and managing partner at Novo Legal Group.

Scott Jagow talks with John Hancock and Michael Kelley about the shooting of National Guard members and how it connects to current immigration policies. The conversation explores the impact of immigration crackdowns on poorer countries, concerns about vetting evacuees from Afghanistan, and the legality of President Trump's actions in Venezuela. They compare Trump's use of executive power across both of his terms and discuss whether Democrats are acting as an effective opposition party.

President Trump has said he'll "permanently pause" immigration from what he called Third World countries, following the shooting of two young National Guard soldiers in Washington on Wednesday, allegedly by an Afghan gunman. In a strongly worded post on social media, he said immigration had eroded living conditions in the United States and that he would remove or denaturalise migrants who "undermine domestic tranquillity," as he put it. Also in the programme: a top Ukrainian official resigns; and Pope Leo XIV travels to Turkey.

This week's episode dives into a crowded lineup of public figures who all managed to confuse PR maneuvering with actual accountability: President Trump's “quiet piggy” moment on Air Force One and the broader pattern behind his attacks on women in the press, Larry Summers' fog-filled non-apology after his Epstein emails resurfaced, Pope Leo XIV's straightforward call for human dignity contrasted with a White House response that dodged the moral point entirely, Kevin Spacey's nightclub comeback performance and his ongoing attempt to swap personal suffering for responsibility, and Meghan Markle's Harper's Bazaar profile, complete with an Upper East Side house manager announcing “Meghan, Duchess of Sussex” to an empty room. It's a week full of case studies in what happens when leaders and celebrities choose optics over truth, and why audiences, voters, and stakeholders are paying closer attention to who names their missteps and who tries to PR their way out of them.Want More Behind the Breakdown?
