Top Trump official Stephen Miller’s recent declaration that anyone who “preaches hate for America” will face deportation has ignited alarm online, with critics warning the statement disregards First Amendment protections.

Social media users and legal analysts raised immediate concerns, pointing out that expressing dissent or criticism of the government is protected under the First Amendment. Some worried the administration was veering into authoritarian territory.

The backlash has reignited broader debates over the limits of free speech, especially as civil liberties fall under scrutiny. While immigration enforcement remains a core theme of President Donald Trump’s platform, critics are increasingly questioning whether rhetoric like Miller’s is a precursor to more aggressive suppression of dissent.
America has NEVER suspended an election, even during the Civil War. Just declaring them suspended would be far too alarming for even many MAGA Morons. They’ll want an excuse, a justification, to keep as many of their stupidest followers on board for as long as possible.
Thats how it’s done. They didn’t send a bunch of innocent brown people to El Salvador, they sent “violent gang members,” even though at least 80% had no criminal record. They need to keep plausible deniability for as long as possible, to keep things from getting too hot and boiling over.
You overestimate the maga morons. If it triggers the libs they will get on board of suspending the elections.
