Subject Man in this Post is Perfect Fit: Stephen Miller, Anti-Immigrant Racist Hypocrite

Miller: Top racist bigot in the White House with Trump's ear

Very interesting and most-enlightening article which confirms what many of us have known for a very long time concerning the racist anti-immigrant hypocrite with a lot of power and influence over Trump – story here from Politico and related article from Slate here.

Below in part is from the man who knows Miller better than perhaps anyone else and if follows this short introduction from the Politico story:

The White House is actively considering plans that could again separate parents and children at the US-Mexico border, hoping to reverse soaring numbers of families attempting to cross illegally into the United States.

One option under consideration is the so-called “Binary Choice” in which the government detains asylum-seeking families together for up to 20 days, then give parents a choice:

(1)  — to stay in family detention with their child for months or years as their immigration case proceeds.

(2)  — to allow children to be taken to a government shelter so other relatives or guardians can seek custody.

This but one of several others under consideration amid the president’s frustration over border security. Trump has been unable to fulfill key promises to build a border wall and end what he calls “catch and release,” a process that began under past administrations in which most detained families are quickly freed to await immigration hearings. 

The number of migrant family members arrested and charged with illegally crossing the border jumped 38 percent in August and is now at a record level, according to DHS.

Senior administration officials say they are not planning to revive the chaotic forced separations carried out by the Trump administration in May and June that spawned an enormous political backlash and led to a court order to reunite families, but they feel compelled to do something as officials say senior White House adviser Stephen Miller is advocating for tougher measures because he believes the springtime separations worked as an effective deterrent to illegal crossings.

Recall at least 2,500 children were taken from their parents over a period of six weeks. Crossings by families declined slightly in May, June, and July before surging again in August. September numbers are expected to be even higher. Some inside the White House and DHS are concerned about the “optics and political blowback of renewed separations,” but Miller is determined to act.

Now the specifics about Miller to review who he really is as I said from the man who knows him best – his uncle:

First of all, Trump and Miller want to make us believe that these desperate migrants are an existential threat to the United States; the most powerful nation in world history and a nation made strong by immigrants.

Trump and Miller both know their immigrant and refugee roots. Yet, they repeat the insults and false accusations of earlier generations against these refugees to make them seem less than human.

Trump publicly parades the grieving families of people hurt or killed by migrants, just as the early Nazis dredged up Jewish criminals to frighten and enrage their political base to justify persecution of all Jews.

Almost every American family has an immigration story of its own based on flight from war, poverty, famine, persecution, fear or hopelessness. Most of these immigrants became workers, entrepreneurs, scientists, and soldiers of America.

Most damning is the administration's evident intent to make policy that specifically disadvantages people based on their ethnicity, country of origin, and religion.

No matter what opinion is held about immigration, any government that specifically enacts law or policy on that basis must be recognized as a threat to all of us. Laws bereft of justice are the gateway to tyranny.

Today others may be the target, but tomorrow it might just as easily be you and your family seeking to join you in America.

As free Americans, and descendants of immigrants and refugees, we have the obligation to exercise our conscience by voting for candidates who will stand up for our highest national values and not succumb to our lowest fears.

How do I know a lot about Stephen Miller? Because I am his uncle, writes David S. Glosser.
