I'm blanking on the source -- Harold C. Fleming, maybe? -- but there was a critic of the Kennedy administration's early inaction on civil rights who said their greatest failing was "not realizing you had to be on *somebody's* side in the South"
I see this sort of proud posturing a lot and it's really a wonderful way to loudly demonstrate to everyone you have absolutely no idea what's going on

Rand Paul on his healthcare plan: "What if you could join Costco? Costco has 44m members and if one person negotiated for all 44 and they bought a group plan like Toyota or General Motors does, they would be the largest collective entity in the country. They would drive prices down by sheer might."

I have a US birth certificate but I was adopted so I have no proof that my birth parents were citizens.
There is nothing more American than birthright citizenship.

I have *zero* proof of citizenship because my parents has no proof because their parents have no proof and their parents have no proof… you have to go back to the early 1900s to find anyone in my family becoming naturalized.
Everyone after that got it by being born here: a birthright, if you will.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

America is a country that will test UBI hundreds of times, get the same radically positive results each time, and still look at it askance, but will also put untested robotaxis on the road because a billionaire threw a shit fit.
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

This whole thread. Read through to the US anti-fascism training from the 1940’s that calls out exactly what Miller is doing
The reality, of course, is that Miller and a significant portion of Trump’s base are the ones who failed to assimilate to America’s post-WWII culture of multi-racial democracy & religious pluralism…and they are now using their power to destroy that once dominant (and still popular) American culture.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization
