    Conor McGregor to meet Donald Trump for talks on Ireland’s ‘illegal immigration racket’

    MMA fighter Conor McGregor is meeting Donald Trump today for talks on Ireland’s “illegal immigration racket”.

    The 36-year-old appeared in the White House briefing room during his St. Patrick’s Day visit to Washington DC and is set to meet the US president later this afternoon.

    He told reporters he is visiting the White House to “raise the issues the people of Ireland face”.

    “What is going on in Ireland is a travesty,” he said. “Our government is the government of zero action with zero accountability.”

    McGregor warned “Ireland is at the cusp of potentially losing its Irishness” due to the “illegal immigration racket”.

    He added that he wants to learn from and listen to President Donald Trump, whose work ethic he called “inspiring”.

    We consider America our big sibling

    “Ireland and America, we are siblings. We consider America our big sibling. So it’s important for Ireland to be a peaceful, prosperous country for 40 million Irish Americans to have a place to visit, [to] come back to their home.

    “So we wish for our relationship with the United States to continue, and we wish to be taken care of by the big bro. The United States should look after its little bro. And that’s how we feel,” McGregor said.

    McGregor is a controversial figure in Ireland after a woman who accused him of raping her won her civil case and was awarded more than £200,000 in damages.

    His social media posts were also linked to the 2023 Dublin riots.
