The Trump adviser is trying to redefine the Constitution in order to carry out his extreme immigration agenda.

The Trump administration continues to subvert the constitutional right to due process to justify its illegal, extrajudicial deportations.

“The right of ‘due process’ is to protect citizens from their government, not to protect foreign trespassers from removal,” wrote deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller on Monday morning. “Due process guarantees the rights of a criminal defendant facing prosecution, not an illegal alien facing deportation.”

This is not how the law works. The clause has no specification for citizenship. Miller’s claim has been widely rebuked.

    I dont agree with that. People are simply a product of their environment. Stick him in the mines for twenty years with four hots and a cot and he’ll forget all about any of this. He’ll just be thinking of the last time he saw the sun.

      I think everyone could be rehabilitated to a decent person. But sometimes a guillotine is a more expedient and humane solution.

      The rest of his family aren’t Nazis, and disowned him.

      Miller is a born psychopath. It’s biological, and it’s incurable. He should be in a cage, away from other people, permanently.
