U.S. Congressman Chip Roy has sparked renewed controversy after issuing a stark warning about what he described as the growing influence of Sharia law in the United States, framing it as an existential threat to American society and Western civilization.
In remarks shared on his verified Twitter account, Rep. Roy argued that extremist elements are pursuing a long-term strategy aimed at undermining the United States from within.
According to the Texas Republican, the objective is not limited to individual states but begins with Texas as a gateway to broader national and hemispheric influence.
He claimed that such efforts are ultimately designed to “Islamify the entire Western Hemisphere,” a process he said would dismantle what he characterized as Judeo-Christian values and the foundations of Western civilization.
Roy criticized what he views as a lack of urgency among U.S. political leaders and institutions, asserting that America is failing to adequately respond to what he considers a serious ideological challenge.
Using forceful language, he suggested that while extremists are engaged in a determined and aggressive campaign, the United States is responding with insufficient seriousness and resolve.
The congressman’s comments were amplified through conservative media circles after being referenced on Mark Levin’s nationally syndicated radio program, where discussions frequently focus on national security, cultural identity, and constitutional issues.
Supporters of Roy argue that his remarks reflect legitimate concerns about extremism, national cohesion, and the need to defend American constitutional principles.
