Fuentes hosts the podcast America First with Nicholas J. Fuentes. On the show, Fuentes strongly opposes immigration, which he believes is a demographic threat to the United States. He has spoken out against the "LGBT agenda", and describes transgender people and same-sex marriage as "deviancy". Fuentes attended the August 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, and spoke positively of a "tidal wave of white identity" afterwards. On his show in April 2017, Fuentes said "Who runs the media? Globalists. Time to kill the globalists" and "I want the people that run CNN to be arrested and deported because this is deliberate." Fuentes also said that "The First Amendment was not written for the Saudi Royal Family". The publisher of the show at the time, RSBN issued an apology, calling the comments "unacceptable" and "inappropriate". Following these and other comments, as well as publicity over his attendance of the Unite the Right rally, he left RSBN in August 2017. He co-hosted the Nationalist Review podcast with James Allsup until January 2018. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, "the two had a public falling out with each host accusing the other of laziness, impropriety and a variety of petty slights." In January 2019, Fuentes aired a monologue in which he compared the Holocaust to a cookie-baking operation, which has led to accusations of Holocaust denial. Fuentes later disputed that he had ever denied the Holocaust, calling his monologue a "lampoon". Fuentes has repeatedly criticized Turning Point USA and its founder Charlie Kirk, accusing them of betraying Donald Trump by advocating in favor of mass legal immigration, support in foreign aid for Israel and LGBT issues. Throughout October and November 2019, his supporters were present at many of Kirk's public speaking events, which have had guest speakers including Donald Trump Jr., Lara Trump, and Kimberly Guilfoyle. These campaigns frequently involved asking questions that prompt viewers to look up far-right and anti-semitic conspiracy theories and hoaxes online. As a result of this campaign the majority of right-wing mainstream politicians and pundits as well as mainstream conservative media disavowed Fuentes. In December 2019, Fuentes confronted conservative political commentator Ben Shapiro, who was with his family at the time, outside of a TPUSA event in West Palm Beach, Florida. Fuentes had confronted Shapiro to ask why he had given a speech at Stanford University bashing Fuentes. The encounter was filmed and led to criticism of Fuentes. In January 2020, Fuentes' YouTube channel was demonetized and one of his videos was removed by YouTube as a violation of their hate speech policies. Fuentes had previously been banned from Twitch and from Reddit. On February 14, 2020, his YouTube channel was terminated for violating policies on hate speech. He has received support from conservative commentator Michelle Malkin, who agreed to speak at Fuentes' "America First Political Action Conference" in February 2020. As a result of supporting him, in November 2019 Malkin was promptly fired by the Young America's Foundation where she had been employed for 28 years. As of January 2020, Fuentes live-streams on DLive.
