So for a moment there I thought Steve Deace was talking about the CARAVAN THREAT coming across the southern border just like it does every election season, in the right-wing fever dream.

But then he did a switcheroo and got into yet another THREAT, that standing army of Muslims that is coming for your jobs, your guns, and your mall parking space. Or something.

And of course it's worse than forty-twelve NINE ELEVENS, sheeple!

STEVE DEACE (HOST): Well, let's go back to 9/11 and reset a research point that I pointed out on this show a few months ago. Since 9/11, we -- if you took the total amount of people that we have imported from Islamist-dominated countries, that we have -- for not even illegally, we just agreed to accept either legally or as refugees or asylum seekers, because I'm sure -- I'm sure we vetted them all, right? Right? Sure.

If you took the total population of those people from Islamist-dominated countries that we have imported, it would be the 36th most populous state in the union, the 36th most populous state. Now, let's -- let's say 99 percent of them were completely and totally vetted -- they weren't -- and we have a pretty good read on their character and caliber and qualifications -- we don't -- but let's say we do, and it's one percent - you'd be looking at a standing army in the tens of thousands. Let's say it's point one - you'd be looking at a standing army way beyond the size and scope of the 20 -- what was it, 20, 21 people pulled off 9/11, something like that?

Clearly there is no arguing immigration issues in good faith with these people. They do not believe there IS such a thing as legal immigration.

Also, I do not want whatever these guys are smoking. No, thank you.
