In Texas, we've had over the last year, and actually now that we're paying attention to it, it's been much longer than a year, but a noticeable growth in a large number of Islamic communities forming for the first time, seemingly trying to create no-go zones, and a large number of Islamic schools, Islamic mosques, Islamic centers.

All of these mean just a very much enhanced Islamic presence in Texas,

really just in very recent years.

And it came to the attention of many people because one of the areas which became, do you know, it's epic, East Plain Islamic Center purchased, I think it's 420 acres and planned a Muslim-only community.

But that's just a piece of it.

But what the imam in charge up there, Yasir Qadhi, did on YouTube was telling people, hey, we're going to have inviting Muslims to come and try to live there because they were going to essentially have a closed off Muslim-only community.

And because he spoke up so boldly, there was a lot of pushback and a lot of attention to it.

So there's that piece of it.

There are two members of the Texas legislature who are

by background Pakistani Muslims who've been pushing a series of legislative proposals, resolutions and legislative proposals, all of which are incrementally forcing or spreading Sharia, Islamic law, and say Sharia is just inconsistent with the American constitution, inconsistent

with the structure of government in America.

So there's a legislature, there's a growth of schools, there's a growth of communities.

And other organizations, which we may get into later today, I don't know, but radical organizations are now headquartering themselves, radical Islamic organizations headquartering themselves in Texas.

And it has become an issue of major concern because many people in Texas pay attention to what's happening in London and throughout the UK and France and Austria and Germany and the Netherlands.

They pay attention and watch this kind of Islamic sweep into those countries.

And they really are.

has become a battle to hold on to Western civilization and their structure of laws and government and the Islamic culture and way of life and its structure of Sharia law that just are incompatible.

So many Texans are watching that and trying to preempt that from occurring here.

Yes.

Steve, I'm glad you mentioned the effort under President Trump's first term to try to get traction in Washington about the idea of designated Muslim Brotherhood and the larger concern about how many people come to America from countries where Islam as a radical Sharia-based doctrine is in place.
