We're gonna have the answer for you coming up next.

Vicki McKennaHOST
I have Simon Hankinson from the Heritage Foundation standing by with a fantastic piece that is not behind a paywall that you can read at The Blaze today.
Vicki McKennaHOST
It was posted a couple of weeks ago, but I want to give it some attention.

Thank you for joining me on the program, Simon.

Vicki McKennaHOST
And there does not appear to be anything that is going to stop it.
Vicki McKennaHOST
So we will be having these conversations finally.
Vicki McKennaHOST
Simon Hankinson from the Heritage Foundation, thank you very much.
Simon HankinsonGUEST
It was my pleasure.
Joe PattersonHOST
And joining us now to talk about, uh, this, I guess, this sort of mentality about these people who think that, um, and I wonder how much of this is based in fact or just based on the idea that, uh, if they say anything bad about Islam, it's ver- it's, uh, Islamophobic, and they don't wanna be considered that, so they will think positive thoughts no matter how, no matter if their lives are on the line.
Joe PattersonHOST
We're joined now by Simon Hankinson, senior research fellow at The Heritage Foundation.
Joe PattersonHOST
He served in the State Department as a foreign service officer, served i- I love the way The Heritage Foundation phrased this, by the way.
Joe PattersonHOST
He served in the State Department as a foreign service officer, serving in India, Fiji, Ghana, Slovakia, Togo, Washington, D.C., Marseille, and Nairobi.
Joe PattersonHOST
Washington, D.C. is pretty foreign to the rest of us, but Simon Hankinson, appreciate you joining the show.
Joe PattersonHOST
How are you today?
Simon HankinsonGUEST
[laughs] Thanks for having me.

Joe PattersonHOST
Mm-hmm.
Kevin WallHOST
[upbeat rock music] You know, we're approaching, uh, Election Day, November 3rd, early voting on, uh, Saturday, and, um, there's been a lot of talk about, uh, the, uh, Islamization of the, um, uh, elections.
Kevin WallHOST
And I had a chance to visit with a guy that's really, really smart, uh, Simon Hankinson from, uh, Heritage Foundation, and I asked him about this, uh, this phenomena known as, uh, Islamization.
Simon HankinsonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Well, I guess the most disturbing trend for me, as someone old enough to remember, uh, communism, is the, the number of DSA, Democrat Socialists of America, who basically are socialists, that's the operative word in that, in that, uh, triple there, uh, who are running for office, and in many cases, totally unimpo- unopposed.
Simon HankinsonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I mean, there's at least one in, uh, Minnesota, I believe, and one in New York City who are gonna get into Congress unless some weird thing happens, because they're in districts that are, you know, ninety-five percent Democrat.
Simon HankinsonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
But, uh, I'll just have to leave it there.
Simon HankinsonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
My fingers are crossed.
Kevin WallHOST
Simon Hankinson joining us from the Heritage Foundation.
Kevin WallHOST
Uh, and of course, we've got a, a lot of, uh, Muslim candidates or with M-with Muslim ties.
Rob SchillingHOST
Coming up on today's edition of the Schilling Show, we're going to continue a discussion that we kind of touched on a few days ago with another guest.
Rob SchillingHOST
Simon Hankinson joins us from the Heritage Foundation on Islamophobia and criticizing Islamism, and what that'll get you in various places around the world, and why that's being made criminal in some places, and they certainly have tried to do that here in some instances.
Rob SchillingHOST
Michael Letts joins us on the investigation of Ilhan Omar and her citizenship and also economic and financial situation, the raid on her home.
Rob SchillingHOST
We'll get to that.

Rob SchillingHOST
All right, the Schilling Show continues on this wild Wednesday edition of the program.
Rob SchillingHOST
More time for open phones, top of hour number two.
Rob SchillingHOST
Right now, welcoming to the Schilling Show, Simon Hankinson, a senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation.
Rob SchillingHOST
A very important conversation to have.
Nick GaleHOST
[laughs]
Ray StevensHOST
Simon Hankinson is gonna join us, senior research fellow, Heritage Foundation, and there's a lot of people that have a hard time when you talk about maybe people of color and crime or religion and Muslims and Muslim extremists, because if you do that, people will say that you're inherently an Islamophobe or you're racist.
Ray StevensHOST
But that's a bunch of crap, because all you have to do, and somebody has to ask the questions.
Ray StevensHOST
We're gonna do that with Simon next on the Big 89 WLS.
25 MINS LATER
Ray StevensHOST
We talked about that at the top of the hour-
Nick GaleHOST
Mm-hmm
Ray StevensHOST
... with Simon Hankinson, and if you missed that, you can listen to it in, uh, in podcast form.
Ray StevensHOST
But what I wanna impose upon WLS listeners, and I know that, I, I know how most people that listen to this radio station think and vote and, and listen.
Joe PiscopoHOST
D- what did you expect? What did you expect? And rather than get mad, how do we beat him? How do you beat him? And, you know, you gotta make it too big to rig.
Joe PiscopoHOST
And then, uh, Simon Hankinson is a senior research fellow in the Board of Security and Immigration Center at the Heritage Foundation.
Joe PiscopoHOST
Again, a shooting with ICE.
Joe PiscopoHOST
Everybody's getting crazy about it.
50 MINS LATER
Joe PiscopoHOST
So we said, "Let's get Terry on the air and talk to her.
Joe PiscopoHOST
What we can do to help, uh, the, uh, 9/11, um, the families of the victims of September 11." Never forget about that.
Joe PiscopoHOST
And if I can just as an aside, Shahar Azani's gonna join us and, uh, Simon Hankinson as well.
Joe PiscopoHOST
Uh, we're gonna talk about that, that ICE agent allegedly, uh, shooting, uh, someone in, uh, you know, a guy that was illegal allegedly, and then he made the run allegedly, and, uh, this ICE agent allegedly, uh, shot somebody in New York.
Moon GriffonHOST
We've been talking about France, what's going on over there, but how is it any different than what may be coming over here? Uh, we've asked, uh, our friend from the Heritage Foundation, Mr.
Moon GriffonHOST
Simon Hankinson, joins us.
Moon GriffonHOST
Uh, Mr. Hankinson, how you doing, sir?
