Julie Banderas

After claiming that the great replacement theory had “nothing to do with” the Buffalo mass shooting because it targeted Black people, Banderas argued, “Democrats want illegals in this country because those are the ones that are eventually going to be voting them into office." [Fox News, MediaBuzz, 5/22/22]

Maria Bartiromo

Bartiromo cited data from the anti-immigrant Center for Immigration Studies to emphasize the number of migrants who have come to the United States during Biden’s administration, comparing it to various city populations including Austin, Texas, and San Francisco. Bartiromo then expressed worry about the “impact on jobs, services, resources” caused by “more people coming into this country in terms of population” than entire cities. Her guest, Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH), responded that the “massive demographic change” caused by “noncitizens” would “fundamentally remake America.” [Fox News, Mornings with Maria Bartiromo, 4/25/22]

Dan Bongino 

Bongino claimed that liberals’ “long-term plan to stay in power” includes having a “class of people that need to rely on them” and said that naturalization for immigrants is a “strict power play to stay in power.” [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 3/22/21]

Tammy Bruce

Bruce said that Democrats refuse to prioritize American citizens in their policies, claiming they “want to encourage the influx in” undocumented immigrants instead because “they imagine those individuals eventually voting.” [Fox News, Tucker Carlson Tonight, 1/29/19]

Rachel Campos-Duffy

Campos-Duffy said it was “very obvious” that a recent surge in immigration “has a lot to do with a voter — an election play on the part of the Democrats.” Later in the segment, she boasted that the Biden administration’s ploy to open “up this border” and “get new citizens in” to “hold onto power that way by having these new citizens and diluting the votes of so many U.S. citizens” has failed. [Fox News, Fox & Friends Weekend, 12/18/21]

Tucker Carlson

Carlson passionately endorsed replacement theory: “Now, I know that the left and all the little gatekeepers on Twitter become literally hysterical if you use the term ‘replacement,’ if you suggest that the Democratic Party is trying to replace the current electorate, the voters now casting ballots, with new people, more obedient voters from the Third World. But they become hysterical because that's what's happening, actually. Let's just say it: That's true.” [Fox News, Fox News Primetime, 4/8/21]

Neil Cavuto

Cavuto floated the theory that the Biden administration and Democratic Party “like what’s happening” and encourage immigration because individuals coming across the border are “likely those more aligned to Democrats anyway.” Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) refuted the claim, saying, “I don’t think that’s the case at all,” and noting that under U.S. law, most immigrants are “never going to be able to vote.” [Fox News, Your World with Neil Cavuto, 3/12/21]

Steve Doocy 

In response to guest Newt Gingrich suggesting that Biden’s “goal was to have the maximum number of illegal people in the United States,” Doocy said, “Perhaps that’s why they’re not calling it a crisis, because it’s working exactly as that is planned.” [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 4/12/21]

Sean Hannity

Hannity complained about “Democrats giving away” citizenship while “other countries are selling it,” saying: “It's like a quid pro quo: We'll give you citizenship for free, we hope you vote Democrat.” Fox contributor Charles Hurt agreed, “Exactly. They're indentured voters.” [Fox News, Hannity, 10/14/21]

Laura Ingraham

Ingraham fearmongered that Democrats “want to replace you, the American voters, with newly amnestied citizens and an ever-increasing number of chain migrants.” [Fox News, The Ingraham Angle, 10/16/18]

Brian Kilmeade

Kilmeade said immigrants are “sneaking into the country” to have children and “change the trajectory of generations.” [Fox Business, Varney & Co., 10/30/18]

Mark Levin

Levin promoted and endorsed replacement theory: “Why is the southern border open? … Obviously to import as many Democrats as they possibly can.” [Fox News, Hannity, 5/19/22]

Dagen McDowell

McDowell said, “You see what is really happening here when you have illegal immigrants in New York City, hundreds of thousands that will now be allowed to vote in local elections. That’s the endgame. That’s why those illegal immigrants are being flown to places like Westchester County and even Florida. These are new voters for the left.” [Fox Business, Mornings with Maria Bartiromo, 12/14/21]

Jeanine Pirro

Ari Fleischer

Newt Gingrich

Gingrich, the former speaker of the House, said: “There are other places around the country where Democrats are advocating that they allow people who are not here legally or people who have not yet become citizens to vote. And I think they think — their calculus is that they have a harder time winning an election with law-abiding Americans. And so, the more people they can bring in who don't know American history, who don't understand the Constitution, aren't part of our traditional values, the better off their chances are.” [Fox News, Tucker Carlson Tonight, 7/26/18]

Tom Homan

Former Acting Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement Homan said Democrats “perceive all these millions of people coming to the United States as future Democratic voters. They also want to fundamentally transform the composition of this country.” [Fox News, The Faulkner Focus, 4/19/22]

Leo Terrell

Terrell said, “The Democratic Party sees these [immigrants] as potential Democratic voters. That's the reason they are being allowed in. Let's be clear. These are the future Democratic voters. Chaos, criminals, people who are coming over here illegally, breaking the law.” [Fox News, Hannity, 1/31/22]

Lara Trump

Trump suggested that the Biden administration wants “an open border” to commit election fraud using immigrants: “Maybe they think that they bring migrants over the southern border and, I don’t know, we don’t have any voter ID like they want. … To a lot of people, it's very suspicious that this is their way to win elections in the future, because if we had a free and fair election and every legal citizen got to vote, I think a lot of people are very disappointed with the policies of the Democrat Party, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris, and it would be very hard for them to win elections." [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 7/29/21]

Former Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN)

Brandon Judd

They can't get elected on their policies because their policies are bad.” [Fox News, America’s Newsroom, 4/4/22]

Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN)

Banks said: “This is all intentional on the part of the Biden administration. … They want to flood the United States with cheap labor and they want to grant amnesty to all of these illegals that are coming into our country and turn them into Democrat voters. That’s their last great hope for keeping the majority in the midterm election.” [Fox News, The Ingraham Angle, 9/24/21]

Arizona Republican Attorney General Mark Brnovich

Brnovich said of immigration: “What we are seeing is an attempt by the left, and whoever’s talking in Joe Biden’s earpiece, to radically alter and change this country.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR)

Cotton warned that with rising immigration, “every American state is a border state, every American town is a border town, and they are all suffering because of Joe Biden's open border policies.” Anchor Harris Faulkner added, “The White House perhaps fashioning a new definition for the word ‘American’?

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX)

Crenshaw said Democrats’ immigration policy “infringes on our national sovereignty” because they “believe that they might have a voter bloc from hundreds of thousands of new people coming across.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)

Cruz claimed, “The disaster at the southern border is not an accident, it’s by design. They [Democrats] are intending this disaster to unfold.” He went on, “They believe as a matter of crass partisan politics that if you let millions and millions of illegal aliens in, that many of them in future years will vote Democrat. And so they’re willing to overlook everything else.” [Fox News, Hannity, 11/16/21]

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL)

Jackson said Democrats are allowing migrants into the country “because they think these people are going to come across and they’re going to get citizenship at some point or at least get the ability to vote and they’re determined that's going to happen and they’re going to get as many over here as they can."

Rep. Burgess Owens (R-UT)

In a discussion on Biden’s decision to end Title 42, Owens accused the Democratic Party of trying to “replace” American voters with migrants as part of a “strategy” to “tear down the walls, open the borders, hoping to get people here that have no idea what our culture is about, have no idea what our rule of laws is all about, that have no patriotism in our country – but they will vote Democrat if given enough freebies. [Fox News, The Story with Martha MacCallum, 4/28/22]
