This Proposed Insane TV Reality Show Is Truly Sickening

Just when you think the idiots in Washington could not step farther over the line, comes this. And honestly, if this wasn't cited in multiple sources, I'm not even sure I'd believe it. 

The woman in charge of former reality star Donald Trump's mass deportation program - Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem - is proposing a bizarre game show in which migrants can "play" for U.S. citizenship. 

As if that's not ridiculous enough, one of the people behind the scenes proposing this thing is a Canadian named Rob Worsoff. 

How would it work? 

"...contestants from various countries and backgrounds would be pre-vetted and arrive at Ellis Island in New York City aboard 'The Citizen Ship', a boat symbolizing a new beginning. They'd be greeted by the host – 'a famous, naturalized American who was also born in another country'...

Contestants would then travel state to state meeting 'interesting Americans' and learning about the history, culture and quirks of each region. Viewers in turn will learn about each wannabe American and why they want to live here."


What would happen to those who don't win? Would they immediately be flown out of the U.S? And would you watch such a show?

One of those proposed as a possible host is Canada's Ryan Reynolds, although there's no evidence he's even been contacted about this or would have any intention of participating. 

Whether any reputable network would air a show like this is another matter. My guess is Fox News.

Kristi Noem is backing insane reality TV show where immigrants compete for fast-tracked citizenship

What a dystopian dreadful idea! And who would want to compete in this day and age? And the crap part is the losers are shipped out to El Salvador! It’s fitting that the puppy shooting Kristi Noem is associated with this, she’s big time bad news.

Too bad Richard Dawson isn't still around to host the inevitable production of 'The Running Man'.

With this administration, the losers would probably be put in front of a firing squad and put out of their misery.

A Firing Squad scene was once used in a long ago cancelled one episode series called Turn-On. In it, a buxom young woman is blind folded and tied to a pole.  The commander then says something like I know it is tradition to grant the prisoner one last request. However, in this situation, the firing squad has requested one.

If this ever comes to light, I'm sure that Canadian producer's career might just be "Worsoff".

And their families charged for the bullets.

My first thought as well.

The Daily Mail isn't a reliable source, so take what they say with a large grain of salt.

I frequently see them referenced for all kinds of right wing falsehoods.

And don't forget, they support Trump and during WW2 they supported Sir Oswald Mosley and his British Union of Fascists.   Mosley was married in Germany and Hitler attended the wedding.


See Media Bias Fact Check for more.


At least they're consistent in backing the scum of the earth.

I don't know a lot about the Daily Mail, but I didn't find the article particularly positive in terms of this horrendous idea for a show. Doesn't seem like they think it's a good idea.

This doesn't go far enough.
Why not citizenship for the survivor of a game of death, similar to the Hunger Games or Squid Game?
As for those who don't win they would be taken to a gravel pit and Kristi Noem would shoot them in the head.
And Trump could still host it.
As president he already hawks bibles and Trump trading cards and bitcoins.
I am certain there would be a market for this.

Jeffery Dean Morgan, known these days as Negan from the Walking Dead series and currently airing Dead City on AMC, is hosting a new reality show on NBC called Destination X. I hope for the contestants sake, Lucille is not involved.

You’re correct BE, Rob Worsoff was just interviewed on CNN, he is Canadian and from Montreal and I suggest we all disassociate!

From the Department of Homeland Security website...

DHS Torches Latest Media Hoax...

.https://www.dhs.gov/news/2025/05/16/fake-news-friday-dhs-torches-latest-media-hoax

Though Trump loves to troll the Left. I thought Trump as Pope would get a lot more traction.

So this news release denies that Noem backs the pitch for the show, but it does not deny that such a pitch was made and is not a hoax.
The DHS confirms they get hundreds of pitches for TV and documentary shows.
As for Noem, she needed all the publicity like a hole in the head.

She's busy working on a new reality show about inflated lips and, if it goes badly, the dog gets shot.

I guess it went badly.
