The first point of order is that this headline ought be updated to say, "This is MAGA's America!":
Link: 'This is America!' Sickened Morning Joe shames Stephen Miller with heartbreaking photo - Raw Story
"Donald Trump advisor Stephen Miller was raked over the coals on MS NOW on Monday morning after “Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough shared a New York Times report about small children being left behind as their parents are abducted and deported by ICE.
To make his point, he held up the paper which showed a photo of a two-year-old child named Jorge, whose mother was grabbed and shipped out of the country in error.
Discussing Donald Trump's cratering popularity, Scarborough suggested Miller is contributing to the president’s collapse, even among Republicans, over Miller’s heartless round-up of immigrants which has infuriated communities.
What is serious, though, is this New York Times, you actually have children, children being left alone without their parents,” he explained as he held up a physical copy of the Times.
“Because you have the administration so obsessed on reaching their numbers,” he added before accusing, “And Stephen Miller thinks this is a good idea. This is Stephen Miller, thinks this is a good idea and Donald Trump lets it happen. Can we zoom in on this picture, please? Donald Trump lets this happen. Where children, here's a two-year-old who are (sic) left without their parents because they're trying to meet quotas that we said from the beginning, and we'll say it again, quotas that will never, ever be met."
Tossing aside the paper, he added, “This is America in 2025.”"
No, Joe and Mika. This is 'MAGA America' in 2025.
Most Americans are decent, fair-minded people who can agree that this country has immigration and border security issues that seriously need to be addressed, but also be appalled by the violence and cruelty being perpetrated by the ICE goons who Drumpf, Miller and Noem have dispatched to terrorize communities around the country.
But yeah, something is pretty fucking bad off when you are kidnapping mothers with children off the streets and shipping them "in error" to god knows where, and leaving 2-year olds behind, alone and abandoned.
But this is the kind of wanton, haphazard malevolence that we have come to expect from Drumpf and his morally bankrupt apparatchiks. Miller and Noem are both going to wind up facing legal accountability for their constitution-shredding assholery some day, mark those words.
The good news is that there is a growing backlash to what ICE is doing beginning to intensify around the country as more and more Americans become eyewitnesses to these documented incidents of masked ICE agents behaving like gangsters and thugs as they hunt down their human prey.
And that backlash of course means that Drumpf and his hench-people will simply double-down on their recklessness and sadism, and sadly, that is very likely at some point going to instigate a violent and tragic incident where people are seriously injured or killed, an incident for which Drumpf will then, as planned imho, justify a decision to declare martial law across the country, suspend the 2026 midterm elections, and essentially entrench himself into dictatorial power until he is forcefully removed.
That's only a prediction of course, but based on everything we see going on right now with DonOld's threats to start a land war in South America, the abandoning of Ukraine to Russia's genocidal terrorism, the alienating of America's traditional allies who are now refusing to share intel on narco-terrorism due to Drumpf's using the military to bomb civilian boats in international waters, the lying about tariffs, the cozying up to foreign despots, the tearing down of the White House East Room to build a garish ballroom, the planning of building a Third Reich-inspired arch-like monument to his own greatness on the national mall, the order to the Treasury department to mint a coin with his face on both sides, etc., etc., etc. . . . sigh . . . . and all of it, every single bit of it, part of a manic, desperate attempt at distraction to keep the Epstein files from public view in order to protect the names of Drumpf, Musk, Thiel and some other big name, elitist perverts from being outed as not only acquaintances of Jeffrey Epstein, but also paying customers who were avid consumers of the product that Epstein was selling, a product which we now know was sex with young boys and girls.
