WarRoom host Peter Navarro and economist EJ Antoni on the War Room, the pair tackled the urgent issues of illegal immigration, job loss for American workers, and economic instability. While the conversation outlined the dire effects of current policies under the Biden administration, it also pointed to actionable solutions Americans can adopt to safeguard their futures.
Navarro emphasized the growing challenge illegal immigration presents to American workers, saying, "Illegal aliens are coming into the workforce and grabbing jobs,” while American-born citizens are left competing for increasingly scarce opportunities.
This influx, he argued, is skewing job statistics. EJ Antoni agreed, adding that the U.S. labor market is deeply distorted because “many illegal aliens don’t respond to government surveys,” leading to a misrepresentation of the true employment landscape.
This reality exacerbates the hardships faced by American workers, especially as full-time jobs are being replaced by part-time work.
REVERSE ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION BY GETTING TRUMP IN OFFICE-RESTORE LAWS
Despite the grim situation, Navarro and Antoni discussed solutions that can help reverse these trends. One of the primary recommendations is public pressure on the government to enforce existing immigration laws. Navarro stated bluntly, "American companies shouldn’t be hiring illegals, period.” Antoni noted that the failure to enforce these laws allows illegal immigrants to take jobs intended for legal residents. Therefore, one significant step is for citizens to demand that politicians act against states like California, where businesses and government programs openly defy federal laws.
Antoni also highlighted another solution rooted in personal financial management: preparing for economic uncertainty by hedging against inflation. “It’s a good idea to have gold as an inflation hedge,” he advised. With the dollar’s value continuing to decline, he argued that holding tangible assets, like gold, can help protect individuals from the economic downturn and stock market volatility. This practical advice is particularly relevant as inflation and rising living costs push more Americans into part-time jobs to make ends meet.
GET MORE AMERICAN JOBS AND GET AMERICA FIRST CANDIDATES IN OFFICE
Their conversation also touched on supporting America First candidates and policies prioritizing American workers. Navarro and Antoni pointed out that markets respond positively when Trump leads in the polls. Antoni explained, "Markets have done significantly better when Trump is ahead.” This underscores the need for Americans to engage in the political process, ensuring that leaders who value American jobs and enforce immigration laws are elected.
Navarro and Antoni’s discussion presents a roadmap for Americans to take action to preserve their financial and job security. Whether advocating for stronger immigration enforcement, making smart financial decisions to hedge against inflation, or supporting pro-American worker policies, there are concrete steps that individuals can take to safeguard their futures. By uniting around these solutions, Americans can reclaim control over their jobs and their economy.

E verify wasn’t ever put in place to protect American workers and jobs. I am so tired of hearing that there aren’t enough Americans to fill the demand. We are grandparents that listen to many other friends talk about children and grandchildren unable to find work,especially full time jobs. This generation is getting screwed.
