Schweizer One Million Chinese “US Citizens”

Schweizer One Million Chinese “US Citizens”

Author: Government Accountability Institute January 28, 2026 Duration: 24:15
In its first week, Peter Schweizer’s new book, The Invisible Coup, is the number one book in the country. A little celebration might be in order, but Schweizer and co-host Eric Eggers relate the book’s blockbuster revelations to what is happening now in Minneapolis. Why is ICE even there in the first place? The Department of Homeland Security said  its largest immigration enforcement operation ever, called “Operation Metro Surge,” was tied in part to allegations of fraud involving Somali residents, which The DrillDown has discussed previously. Massive defrauding of aid programs including daycare, food, housing, and ambulance services was perpetrated largely by Somalis living in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.

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.
