The Invisible Coup

by Peter Schweizer

First published 2026

Peter Schweizer argues that mass migration has become a coordinated political weapon targeting the United States. The investigative journalist documents how foreign governments and domestic elites exploit immigration to influence American elections and politics. Schweizer reveals Mexico's consular network conducting shadow campaigns, a Chinese-designed visa program funneling foreign money into U.S. elections, and three presidents who created instant citizens to alter voter demographics. He shows how the Mexican president views migration as territorial reconquest and warns of over one million Chinese-born Americans who will soon vote in elections. Drawing on confidential documents, intercepted communications, and years of fieldwork, Schweizer connects political leaders, NGOs, and drug cartels in what he calls an invisible coup. The book provides readers with documented evidence of foreign interference in American democracy and immigration policy.
