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.

    So I need a two-year old account to post as much as you do daily? Because I’m new to Lemmy, so I’m not aware of that guideline.

      Oh originally you said you’d like to catch up to how much I have posted or commented so I said it helps to have a two year old account I didn’t realize you meant a daily count I’m sorry.
