Stephen Miller, one of whose ancestors was a refugee from Tzarist, anti-Semitic Russia, seems not to have learned compassion from that history. Miller has again become influential on Administration policy on immigration.
Today, he made statements justifying shutting down the government on the 21st, should Congress not fund Mr. Trump's much-yearned-for border wall. Further, Miller reiterated the Administration's policy on immigration in general - that it can no longer be based upon The New Colossus. All of this pales, however, in comparison to an even newer, more cruel wrinkle. The administration intends to pursue deporting thousands of refugees from the Vietnam War.
Yes, you read that right. It's hard to imagine a more inhumane policy (unless one considers children in cages).
