This speech is over 400 years old. It is gripping even now. He could be speaking of Steven Miller, Donald Trump, JD Vance, Tom Homans. It is devastating: "This is the strangers’ case

This is such a good piece: More than anyone except Trump, Miller's personal worldview is reshaping our government. He sets targets that fuel invasive immigration round-ups that are indifferent about how is captured. We have to build a new detention state for the people being rounded up.
Stephen Miller is employing state terror in service of the open goal of shifting the ethnic mix of the country. In numerous ways he's doing this at the expense of public safety.
We spent weeks reporting on Miller's real aims. Here's the result. We hope you'll read:

Trump on Americans' healthcare costs going up by 200-300%: "Don't make it sound so bad"
Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?
TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.
