A recent livestream by podcast host and Daily Beast columnist Wajahat Ali ignited controversy after he delivered a racially charged tirade aimed at white Americans while responding to former President Donald Trump’s renewed push to end what he called “third world migration.” Ali’s remarks came shortly after the violent attack on West Virginia National Guard Specialist Sarah Bergstrom and West Virginia Air National Guard member Andrew Wolfe at the Farragut West Metro Station in Washington, D.C., an incident that prompted Trump to reiterate his promise to halt such migration.
During an episode of The Left Hook streamed on his Substack, Ali declared that Trump’s efforts were pointless and doomed to fail. “You have lost, you lost,” he said, insisting that America made a critical error decades ago. According to Ali, “The mistake that you made is you let us in in the first place. That’s because brown people, and I am going to say this as a brown person, there’s a lot of us, like a lot. There’s like 1.2 billion in India, there’s more than 200 million in Pakistan, there’s like 170 million in Bangladesh. Those are just the people over there.”
Ali then emphasized that global populations of people of South Asian descent were only part of the picture. “I ain’t even talking about the folks were expats or immigrants,” he added. He went on to say, “There’s a bunch of us and we breed. We’re a breeding people and the problem is you let us in in 1965.”
The rant escalated further when Ali launched into an attack on American culture while continuing to address Trump directly. At one point, he declared, “American culture sucks,” and continued with, “I want you to realize this: You have lost. Your story is a shitty story, filled with misery. It’s filled with bland chicken. It’s filled with terrible, terrible, dry-ass meat. Your music sucks. All your culture sucks.” He contrasted this with minority cultures in the U.S., claiming young people prefer “black people and their music” and boasting that minority communities have better celebrations, saying, “Our parties have better food, better music, better looking women.”
The broader immigration debate surrounding Ali’s comments has intensified due to recent crimes involving migrants brought into the U.S. under Operation Allies Welcome, a program created by the Biden administration after the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Among them is Mohammad Dawood Alokozay, who was arrested in Texas after posting a TikTok video threatening that he was constructing a bomb. Another is Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the suspect charged with fatally shooting Bergstrom and critically injuring Wolfe.
Meanwhile, attempts to enforce immigration laws have increasingly been met with violence. Over the weekend, riots broke out in New York City as protesters attempted to obstruct an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operation. Similar chaos has erupted in other cities, including Chicago and Portland. ICE agents in Chicago were reportedly attacked by individuals using vehicles as weapons, and DHS noted multiple violent assaults on an ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois.
Portland has likewise become a hotspot for unrest, where protesters reportedly attacked conservative journalists covering the riots and were even accused of planning to use lasers against aircraft operated by federal law enforcement. The hostility toward immigration enforcement has, in some places, escalated to deadly levels.
In late September, two people were killed after a gunman opened fire at an ICE facility in the Dallas area before taking his own life. Texas authorities have also dealt with other violent incidents targeting immigration facilities. In July, shots were fired at ICE and Border Patrol sites, resulting in ten people being charged with attempted murder and conspiracy in Alvarado, Texas.
The intensifying pattern of violence—combined with inflammatory rhetoric like Ali’s—continues to fuel the national debate over immigration, public safety, and the cultural tensions playing out across the country.
COMMENTARY:
The video and article highlight a growing tension that many Americans feel: if someone chooses to come to the United States, there should be a basic expectation of loyalty, respect, and willingness to assimilate into the nation that welcomed them. When immigrants openly mock the country, insult its culture, or express disdain for the very society they chose to join, it raises legitimate questions about why they are here in the first place. Immigration was never intended to be a means of importing hostility, nor was citizenship meant to serve as a shield for those who reject the fundamental values that hold this nation together.
A society cannot function when newcomers ridicule its traditions and treat their host culture as inferior. Assimilation doesn’t mean erasing heritage—it means respecting the country you join, contributing to it, and being part of its identity rather than working against it. When someone openly declares that “American culture sucks” while benefiting from everything America offers, it shows a level of contempt that undermines the trust essential for a stable nation. No country can survive if it continuously imports populations that do not believe in the legitimacy of its culture or values.
It becomes even more serious when hostility evolves into actual violence. When individuals brought into the country commit acts like bomb threats or deadly attacks, the consequences extend far beyond cultural disagreements—they become direct threats to American lives and national security. The American people have every right to demand that immigration policies prioritize safety and protect citizens from those who would do them harm. No nation can responsibly maintain an immigration system that invites danger or overlooks the risks associated with admitting individuals who do not respect the country’s laws.
A functioning immigration system relies on a shared understanding: if you come to the United States, you should be here because you want to be part of the United States. That means respecting its culture, its people, and its institutions. If someone rejects that basic expectation, and especially if they show active hostility, then deportation is a reasonable and necessary response. A sovereign nation has the right—indeed, the obligation—to remove those who endanger its citizens or openly undermine its society.
The idea of allegiance is central to citizenship and even lawful residency. America extends opportunities, protections, and freedoms that many in the world desperately seek. In return, newcomers are expected to show good faith, to follow the law, and to demonstrate loyalty to the country that gave them a home. If someone cannot meet that minimum standard, then they are effectively rejecting the social contract that makes immigration possible in the first place.
This isn’t about race, background, or heritage—it’s about attitude, values, and conduct. Millions of immigrants throughout American history have embraced this nation wholeheartedly. They worked hard, raised families, and became part of the national fabric. They didn’t spit on American culture while simultaneously enjoying its benefits. They didn’t demand entry while rejecting assimilation. They understood that joining a country requires adopting a certain level of loyalty to it.
When someone says “you have lost” and mocks the nation’s culture while living within it, they’re signaling that they see themselves not as Americans, not even as participants in American society, but as demographic conquerors. That mentality is toxic, divisive, and incompatible with a cohesive nation. No country is obligated to tolerate such attitudes from its immigrants. America, like any sovereign nation, has the right to expect a commitment to unity rather than a celebration of division.
The violence against ICE facilities, law enforcement, and innocent people only bolsters the case for stronger immigration controls and firm consequences for those who are openly hostile. When immigration enforcement itself becomes a target of violent attacks, that’s a sign that the system is not simply strained—it’s being actively resisted by groups that do not respect the rule of law. Enforcing deportation in such cases is not cruelty; it’s common sense and national self-defense.
Ultimately, immigration must serve the interests of the nation, not undermine them. If someone comes here and wants the benefits of America but hates the culture, the people, or the values, then they should not remain here. If someone poses a threat or refuses to assimilate, deportation becomes not just an option but a necessity. Love for this country—regardless of one’s background—is the glue that holds America together. Anyone unwilling to share in that love has no reason to stay, and the nation has no obligation to keep them.
