So what's going on with these Somali Americans in Minneapolis? We know there's been billions of dollars of fraud that has been uncovered. We know that about 80% of Somali American families in Minneapolis are on some form of public assistance, which is a violation of immigration law or rather a violation of what's supposed to happen with our immigration process. And yet Nigerian Americans, as I've pointed out to people on my radio show, they make $80,000 a year, doing great, doing even above the average American household. Substantially Somali Americans are making 40,000 a year and that's including all the benefits and things that are going on here. What is happening? Priya Patel joins us, conservative commentator who has some great stuff online about cultures and how they are different and they are not all equivalent. Priya, what do you see happening with the Somali community in Minneapolis? Why are we finding these challenges?
- [03:38]
Priya Patel
Well, you know what, the Somali individuals that we find in Minneapolis are unfortunately a part of this cult like behavior we often see with mass immigration where we have these communities that come from overseas a lot of the times from these third world countries that are very underdeveloped and have cultures that are completely incompatible to ours and they stick together like these little gangs and they don't, they don't assimilate to our American culture. They don't, they don't like gather, they don't conform to our norms here. They don't get with the program here in America.
- [04:13]
Buck Sexton
Yeah, yeah, of course.
- [04:15]
Priya Patel
And essentially what we're seeing in Minnesota or Minnesota specifically, we're seeing them just mooch off of our system. They're not contributing to American culture, they're not contributing to American society. If anything, they're just denigrating it even more.
- [04:31]
Buck Sexton
And yet Donald Trump, it's so interesting. He has just come out and he said, I don't know if you saw this interview, but it was just in the last week or so. I think it was some reporters in a gaggle that came forward and asking him. Yeah, yeah. He basically said it's like a garbage country. Like we don't need people from Somalia coming here. Which is, it's fascinating because there's this revulsion that we're supposed to have like, you know, the elite media or whatever, the, you know, the old legacy media and the Democrat Party, they want you to say, how dare he. And yet we're also told or we're supposed to believe that our immigration system is benefiting all Americans of all colors, of all backgrounds. All actual Americans are benefiting from this system because they're bringing us the best. Well, as Trump famously said about Mexico a long time ago, they're not sending us their best. And in this case, what you see is Somalia clearly is a case of not a lot of vetting going on for who's becoming a green card holder and then becoming part of the American family long term.
- [05:33]
Priya Patel
Yeah, well. And President Trump's comments about Somalia are very accurate. Somalia has not been a functioning country for decades. So to say that it's just this big, beautiful, flourishing nation and the people are just contributing to society and there's this alleged excellence, as Ilhan Omar likes to say, it's just simply not true. And we see that apparent in the Somalis that we have coming to the United States.
- [06:01]
Buck Sexton
Yeah, it's. It's a challenge, and it's something that we're finally having, I think, discussions about immigration that are taking into account the realities of the burden on the taxpayer. For example, I can tell, you know, I'm. I live in Miami. I'm part of the. Or Miami Beach. I'm part of the COVID My wife and I, we said we're, you know, she was working at Fox News. We are Covid refugees. And so we. We went down to. To Miami beach, and we love it down here, and it's fantastic. But I know New York very well, and it was a real pivot point in the public's understanding and perception when you had all of these migrants, which is really just a nice word for people who come into the country illegally and then are falsely claiming asylum, none of them are going to get asylum. They're not actually asylum seeker. But then they go through this whole process and they hope they can. Yeah, they're economic migrants. But people saw. Well, in New York, you had 30% of emergency room visits were these migrants of all. Which means, by the way, the wait times exploded through the roof. They were taking schools and shutting them down to use them to house migrants. 20% of all hotels in New York City, it's the biggest city in America, were going to house these migrants. The costs here are very real. But our sponsor here is Birch Gold. The value of both gold and silver is up this year, in fact, up more than 60% through the first 11 months of the year. So there are plenty of reasons for this uncertainty in what central banks are going to be doing going forward. Other than the printing, which they're going to be doing that for sure. A lot of inflation we're going to be dealing with going forward. Birch Gold Group wants you to own silver and gold. That's why they think that for this is a great deal for you. For every $5,000 you purchase in gold between now and December 22, which is coming up, Birch Gold will send you an ounce of silver. Diversify. Let Birch Gold help you convert an existing IRA or 401k into a tax sheltered IRA and physical gold. For every $5,000 you buy, you'll get an ounce of silver. Text my name. Buck to 9898 98. Claim your eligibility for this offer. Text Buck to 9898 98. Birch Gold's free silver with qualifying purchase promotion ends on December 22nd. Text Buck to 989898 yeah, 100%.
- [08:12]
Priya Patel
Well, and I mean we can go into all of the arguments for socialism that we're seeing coming out of New York specifically, and how that's basically a very clear example of the route that that's going to take that city down if they follow through with a lot of these socialist policies. But yeah, no, it really takes a toll on the American taxpayers specifically when all of our resources are being drained by people that don't contribute to the system, that don't pay the taxes and don't pay their fair share in taxes, even if they do pay taxes in the first place. Somalis on average pay about a tenth of the taxes that the rest of us Americans do. So to say that they're contributing to the system that they're completely leeching off of is just ridiculous.
- [08:54]
Buck Sexton
Yeah. And I think that the Trump administration's raising of the issue of what the costs are is enormously important so people can understand what's going to happen if we continue to do this. We cannot be the world's soup kitchen because there are a lot of poor people. There are a lot of poor people all over the world. And if we can, if we're just going to take in everybody who arrives and pay for all of their stuff, we're going to be $40 trillion in debt here really soon and that's not going to be taken care of. I mean, I'll tell you this. I don't know if you're, if you're like an Elon follower. I mean, I'm, I don't know the guy, but I think with the work that he's done is pretty incredible. But it was disheartening. I spoke to Katie Miller, who's Stephen Miller's wife, who's got this big podcast now that she's building up, and we just had her on and we were talking to her about how Elon basically says, like, Doge was a distraction from his more important projects. And, and it's really, I think what Elon figured out is people don't want to cut this stuff. Like, it doesn't. You say you want to cut. We're spending too much money as a country. But then when you get to actually deal with where the spending is, it's bipartisan. We're. We're just, we're going toward that fiscal cliff even faster.
- [10:06]
Priya Patel
Yeah, I completely agree. You know, the issues with, that arose in Doge, in the end were really disheartening, especially when we saw how much Elon really wanted to cut from the, from the budget. And it just wasn't, it wasn't, you know, it wasn't feasible according to the government. And yeah, I think on that issue specifically, his heart was absolutely in the right place. And I completely agree with the things that he wanted to do in terms of cutting the budget. But, yeah, I mean, it's, it's not, it's not a. It's not a partisan issue. The spending. It's a, it's a. It's certainly something that both Republicans and Democrats in Congress have issues with.
- [10:45]
Buck Sexton
So, yeah, you're, you're. I'm. I'm guessing here, but I think it's pretty. You're Gen Z, right?
- [10:50]
Priya Patel
I am, yeah.
- [10:51]
Buck Sexton
Yeah. You're Gen Z. Oh, boy. I am. I am actually. I am a. And I used to just say this before I actually had some gray in my beard. I am a gray beard millennial. So us millennials, we have increasingly moved to.
- [11:03]
Priya Patel
I have grades coming already.
- [11:05]
Buck Sexton
Yeah, we have moved to the right. The millennials are figuring out reality faster and faster because they. To deal with that. With that reality. We were Gen Z. Gen Z just delivered Mamdani a victory in New York City, in part. And there are a lot of people voted for mom Dani. But Gen Z was a big part of that. I. Miami, which is the city next door to me, I'm in Miami Beach. Miami just elected basically a socialist. And one of the big reasons for that is again, Gen Z coming out. What do they, what do they not get about how these people are like, explain to me your Gen Z friends and peers. What do they not understand? These, these individuals with his mom, Donnie, whatever. They're not going to make anything cheaper. They're actually just going to make it all More expensive. Do they not understand that?
- [11:50]
Priya Patel
No, it's so true. And unfortunately, what a lot of my peers don't realize is that the implementation of socialist policies in the government and in our economy are the reason for a lot of these issues that we're feeling in our day to day lives. And I mean I really feel for people my age, we've kind of been the hand of the short end of the story stick. We've had a lot of the generations before us, especially the boomers, really, really take a lot from the system economically that we aren't going to see ourselves. So I really understand. And we have a lot of, we have a lot of issues in terms of, you know, interest rate and what debt looks like today and it essentially becomes impossible for the job market looking like it does and what, what average pay does for, for people kind of starting their careers. It's really difficult. And now we have, you know, student loan debt is a whole nother problem that people are going to get trapped in for the next 30 years. Plus that honestly if they keep adding to, adding to their debt due to the cost of living, just especially in large American cities. I mean, I'm in Los Angeles and I can tell you right now that it's really ridiculous the prices that we pay here for pretty much everything. If you look at the national, the average of gas prices nationally, we're like two, almost three times X that. So I mean it's just ridiculous. And it's mostly not due to the federal government, it's due to our state government here in California. But you know, I really feel for my generation that thinks that socialism is going to solve the world's problems, especially when it comes to our pocketbook, but it's simply not the case. Socialism is what caused these issues and it's not going to fix them. It's going to be the system and it's going to make everything quality wise go down.

I'm not, we're not blaming you for this by the way, but I do want you to speak with the knowledge of your governor, Gavin Newsom and, and how he's likely, if you look at the betting markets, he's likely to be the next Democrat. No, again, according to the betting markets, who knows what's going to happen. But he's likely to be the next Democrat nominee for president. And between him and all these other LA officials I've seen talking about how, you know, we're going to rebuild after the fires and Malibu and Palisades fire. Didn't they just celebrate like the first house since that all happened, the first four bedroom house has been approved for rebuild or something? This has been a long time.
- [15:06]
Priya Patel
It really has. And of course now you see Gavin Newsom blaming the President for this. Well, Gavin Newsom and the California Democrats just spent over $3,300,000,000 on a special election to redistrict here in California. Where exactly is that money coming from? We're in an incredibly large deficit right now and well, we had a, we had a balanced budget and when Gavin Newsom came into office, office, can't speak English, came into office and of course he's completely destroyed that. We've been under one party rule here in California for the good part of 15 years and to say that they're going to come in and fix these issues of homelessness, affordability, housing, all these things, it is simply not the case. We've had the same thing over and over again. And Californians do need to realize that doing the same thing over and over again and not changing the results is not going to, it's not going to change anything. You keep electing the same people that are paid by the same people that want the same agenda and it's not going to change anything. We have to change something here in California and that starts with the voters.

Can you help my man Steve Hilton win the Governor's mansion? Like you got some friends. Can you make some calls?
- [16:12]
Priya Patel
Ryan, I love Steve. Steve so much.
- [16:15]
Buck Sexton
You know Steve. Okay. You know Steve.
- [16:17]
Priya Patel
Good.
- [16:17]
Buck Sexton
I was gonna say I gotta put you guys in touch. Yeah, he's great. We have him on radio all the time. He's really good. I mean, if nothing else, it'd be great to see him up on stage debating Newsome on, on these issues. But I just. The fact that Newsom won that recall election so convincingly, after all the things he's done to your state, after all the, the clownery that he has been responsible for, it was pretty disheartening. I mean, didn't San Francisco just elect a somewhat reasonable mayor? Like, even far left places eventually suffer enough that they're like, you know, we should do something different. Feels like California doesn't get the message.
- [16:57]
Priya Patel
Well, you know what the really difficult thing is that we do have a lot of fraud in our voting system here and people don't. Well, people do realize that, and it basically deters them from coming to vote. Vote where there are ways to get around the fraud and the voting system. You just have to do your due diligence. And that might take more effort on the part of the voters, but it is possible. It just. We don't have the energy here to galvanize the Republicans and the independents to come out and vote against the radical Democrats that we have here in California, unfortunately. And California Democrats are very galvanized and very motivated to get out there and support their party for better or worse. And most of it, honestly, I think, is just ignorance and hatred for the President. So of course, anything that the president approves of, they are just automatically going to oppose. That's why Gavin Newsom is running the campaign that he is currently with his social media platforms. His stance, quite literally right now is nothing for the constituents here in California. It is simply trying to beat Trump and fight against Trump with anything that he brings up. And of course, we've seen his social media. I think it's the governor's newsroom or something like that. It's basically all about trying to beat Trump by being Trump. And it's just, I mean, it's so stupid. At the end of the day, you have to actually stand for something and he stands for nothing other than going against the president.
