Europe Chose Wrong, America Beware [WATCH]

Newsmax host Carl Higbie criticized European immigration policies, arguing they have placed financial burdens on taxpayers, weakened national sovereignty, and contributed to what he described as cultural and public safety challenges in several countries.

During his remarks, Higbie also defended free speech protections, the Second Amendment, and what he described as the importance of preserving Western culture.

Higbie began by arguing that people should not face criminal penalties for expressing controversial opinions.

“Now, agree or disagree with what someone is saying outside of physical threats. Nobody should go to jail for hate speech,” Higbie said.

He then criticized European governments for expanding social welfare programs while accepting large numbers of migrants.

“But Europe then raises taxes to pay for these huge social nets that these migrants, many of which have subpar average IQs, no skills. Honestly, many have no will to work, and native Europeans have to pay more in taxes.”

Higbie argued that the burden falls on working taxpayers.

“So the guy praying to Allah in the street who happens to be blocking traffic for the European trying to get to that job for that wage that is taxed that is being stolen to give to that person in the first place, ruining their country, ruining their culture and their customs.”

He added, “I mean, well done, Europe. Really, seriously, guys.”

Higbie also criticized European firearm laws and tax policies.

“You Europeans are now unarmed, then thus able unable to defend yourself, unable to speak out against it, and all their disposable income has been confiscated via taxes to fund the very invasion that they’re now getting destroyed by.”

Turning to the United States, Higbie questioned why he believes some Americans continue to support similar immigration policies.

“You paying attention yet, Libs? Apparently not, because you still don’t get it.”

He referenced comments made on social media by the Krasenstein brothers regarding migrants seeking better lives.

“One of the brain trusts on the left, the Krasenstein brothers, tweeted out today: ‘Well, these people will merely want the best life for themselves and their families, just like everybody on this planet, the fact that so many conservatives, so and so-called Christians, are attacking them is disgusting.'”

Higbie challenged that argument.

“They are. Where are all the women and children, Brian? I didn’t see that in any of those.”

He continued, “If they’re fleeing for a better life, where are their families or their luggage?”

Higbie also referenced recent unrest in Spain.

“They’re not looking for a better life because within the first 24 hours they landed in Spain, they destroyed the city they entered.”

He argued Spain should have taken a different approach at its border.

“Spain should have used lethal force at their border, but now they’re inside the gates. There’s nothing they can do.”

“They aren’t even deporting these people.”

Higbie then pointed to the scale of migration.

“As many as 100,000 in a day. I mean, what would that do to your town?”

He compared those figures to immigration during former President Joe Biden’s administration.

“Some towns in Texas and Arizona actually saw this under Biden, led in 20 million people over his presidency.”

Higbie used those claims to explain his continued support for the Second Amendment.

“This is why I always say any government that wants to take away your guns is probably about to do something that you might consider shooting them over.”

He added, “You can fight your way, you know, even fight for your guns now, or you can fight for your life later when a foreign invader tries to break through your window in the middle of the night, like over in Spain, because your government didn’t keep its promise to protect you.”

Higbie argued that America’s constitutional protections were designed with those concerns in mind.

“It’s almost like our founding fathers came from Europe and knew they would do something stupid like this, then that’s why we have a First Amendment, a Second Amendment, a Fourth Amendment.”

He questioned how much evidence would be needed to change public opinion.

“I mean, how much pain and suffering and I told you so speeches is it going to take to make these people learn that this is not a matter of coexisting?”

“This is a fight for Western culture as we know it.”

Higbie said he believes the cultural values of many migrants conflict with those of Western nations.

“The views these people have who are invading us are antithetical to literally everything we stand for.”

He also expressed concern about long-term demographic trends.

“And when they get in the majority, which they will, because they’re breeding at a rate 4x what the native Europeans and even Americans are, in 100 years there will be no West if we don’t get it.”

Higbie praised Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s immigration policies.

“Italy does. Their prime minister was like, ‘No way, we’re not doing this.'”

“Said we will not yield an inch on this.”

“That’s the only acceptable response.”

He contrasted that with Spain.

“But Spain, Spain’s lost.”

“And since they wouldn’t let us even land our planes there in the Iran campaign, I say you guys are on your own.”

“Shouldn’t get any help from us.”

Higbie concluded by encouraging people to defend their national identity and traditions.

“We should use these as examples to make sure that the message is carried over, that these people understand that what they’re doing is so detrimental to their lifestyle, to their country, to their people, to their culture.”

“It’s okay to fight for your culture, and somehow, in the midst of all this left smokescreen, people stop doing that because they were ashamed of it.”

“Should never be ashamed of your own culture.”

“You should always be proud to fight for it.”

“That’s why I put on the uniform.”

He ended by expressing hope that more people would pay attention to the issue.

“I just hope that these people wake up, and I hope that this is reported loud enough that people understand.”

“Well, stay strapped, America.”
