The Tucker Carlson Network Documentary: 'Replacing Europe: Following the World's Deadliest Migration Route'

Released around January 2026. It follows journalist Anthony Rubin and his team as they trace a perilous illegal migration path from West Africa to Europe, highlighting dangers, smuggling networks, and alleged facilitation by NGOs and governments. The film argues that this mass migration from Africa is overwhelming and transforming Europe, framed as an orchestrated ‘invasion.’

The narrative is that Europe is being invaded and destroyed by Africa, in a crime orchestrated by global leaders. Must Watch!

Anthony Rubin: Known as ‘Muckraker,’ Rubin is an independent investigative journalist with a focus on migration and border issues. He founded muckraker.com, where he produces undercover exposés on illegal immigration.

Sierra Leone emerges as one key distant origin for migrants gathering in Mauritania ahead of the deadly sea voyage to Europe's Canary Islands—alongside nations like Senegal and Gambia. Carlson uses it to underscore the route's vast African scope, with trekkers from far-off countries boarding overcrowded boats. This fits his story of a chaotic, multi-nation influx eroding European demographics, echoing separate U.S. reports on Sierra Leonean smuggler Abdul Karim Conteh, who ran networks moving thousands (including Iranians and Afghans) toward the American border.

Carlson's narrative of a chaotic, multi-country influx destroying European demographics.

The route starts in Mauritania, a key launch point for migrants from across the Sahel and Maghreb regions heading to Spain's Canary Islands by boat. The team documents camps, processing by UN-linked workers, flights to mainland Europe (e.g., Madrid), and claims of corruption, like a UN representative admitting migrants pay smugglers €50,000–60,000 while governments receive EU funds to sustain the flow. The undercover footage shows attacks on the crew and exposes what they call systemic incentives for unchecked arrivals.

What’s Your Take? Does spotlighting Sierra Leone in docs like Carlson's "Replacing Europe" unfairly stigmatize it, or spark real change? Agree or disagree: The film casts it as a distant origin for youth braving deadly Mauritania routes, emphasizing chaos over poverty's root pull. Does this pressure leaders to act—or just vilify victims?
