Paris burns as the Great Replacement reaches its inevitable conclusion. Jason Killmeyer departed as the Chief of Staff of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in April 2026, and before that served as Chief of Staff of the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Strategy, Policy & Plans. He is the author of "Battle Over the Demos" and "Rise of the Restrictionists," published in The American Mind in July and August 2026, and of "Mass Deportation After the Midterms," Parts I and II, published in The Daily Caller in August 2026. As a congressional candidate in 2022 he called for a complete immigration moratorium, a position he restated in 2024 in "Modern American Restrictionism," "Confederate California," and "How to Defuse Leftist Hysteria Over Mass Deportations." Jason is developing Matching the Mandate, a study of what mass deportation requires: the on-the-ground logistics, the legal authorities, and the great society-wide civic effort needed to carry it out. He has given more than 100 radio, television, and podcast interviews. He previously served as Chief Operating Officer of Project Veritas and spent a dozen years in national security. Jason continues to advocate for the centrality of immigration restrictionism in the next era of American politics.Follow him on X @JasonKillmeyer Paid partnerships with: Dutch: Use code TUCKER for $80 off your vet care at https://dutch.com/tucker American Financing: NMLS 182334, nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
