Schweizer on Birthright Citizenship: “The Constitution is Not a Suicide Pact

Schweizer on Birthright Citizenship: “The Constitution is Not a Suicide Pact

Author: Government Accountability Institute April 8, 2026 Duration: 26:30
Foreign interference in our elections is the broad theme on today’s episode of The Drill Down, as hosts Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers discuss birthright citizenship at the Supreme Court, ActBlue’s foreign donor problem, and a lawsuit in Virginia over allowing the foreign-born children of people who once lived in Virginia to vote in the state’s elections.

In The Drill Down with Peter Schweizer, investigative research meets candid conversation. Hosted by the cofounder and president of the Government Accountability Institute, this podcast goes beyond the headlines to examine the mechanics of power, corruption, and influence. Peter Schweizer brings a unique perspective shaped by his work as the author of detailed exposés like "Clinton Cash" and "Throw Them All Out," and his analysis has been cited everywhere from the "New York Times" to "60 Minutes." Here, he applies that same rigorous, document-driven approach to the stories shaping our world. Each episode is a deep dive, pulling apart complex political and financial webs to understand not just what happened, but how and why it happened. The discussions are grounded in the institutional research mission of the Government Accountability Institute, focusing on facts over rhetoric. You'll hear Schweizer break down current events, interview other experts and investigators, and connect present-day scandals to broader, systemic patterns. It’s a show for anyone who suspects there’s more to the story and wants a guide who knows how to follow the evidence. Tune in for a clear-eyed, often unsettling, but always substantive look at the forces that truly drive decisions in Washington and beyond. This isn't about partisan talking points; it's about the underlying structures and transactions, offering listeners a different lens through which to view the news.
