Americans deserve reparations for the damage caused by mass migration, presidential adviser Stephen Miller told Newsmax TV on Saturday.
“We all deserve reparations for what has been stolen from us,” Miller said.
“It is a tragedy that defies our ability to even describe it.”
Miller was responding to claims from Democrat Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse that America should pay reparations to “Maryland Man” Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported to his native El Salvador under the powers of the Alien Enemies Act and is now at the center of an international incident. Garcia is credibly believed to be a member of the notorious criminal gang MS-13, which President Trump recently classified as a terrorist organization, and was suspected of being involved in human-trafficking in the US before his deportation.
“Where do I even begin? Where do I even start?” Miller responded.
“We used to have a functioning public school system in this country. Then we had open borders. Now our schools are in chaos and disarray. We need hundreds of translators. Nobody’s learning how to read or write. We had an entire generation of Americans—multiple generations, in fact—robbed of educational opportunities.”
Miller went on to describe the damage done to Los Angeles—“once a paradise of safety, security, and prosperity”—by foreign gangs; the victims of fentanyl poisoning, including the “hundreds of thousands of moms and dads whose kids are dead and buried in the ground”; and “all the women who have been raped, who been beaten, who have been murdered, all the dads who have been shot dead and aren’t home, all the police officers who have been slain by illegal aliens in ambush attacks in the line of duty.”
What about reparations for these people?
“There aren’t enough volumes that could fit into a library to calculate the carnage that has been inflicted by the Democrat party’s policy of open borders. We can spend the rest of our lives trying to document those harms,” Miller added.
Miller’s fiery intervention came as President Trump waded into the debate about the future of Garcia with a decisive piece of evidence about his gang affiliation.
On Friday, the President tweeted out a picture of Garcia’s left hand, on which can clearly be seen a marijuana leaf, followed by a smiley face, a cross and a skull, with the cross and skull disguising the numbers 1 and 3. These symbols are meant to denote MS-13, the violent criminal gang which President Trump recently declared a terrorist organization.
“This is the hand of the man that the Democrats feel should be brought back to the United States, because he is such ‘a fine and innocent person.’ They said he is not a member of MS-13, even though he’s got MS-13 tattooed onto his knuckles, and two Highly Respected Courts found that he was a member of MS-13, beat up his wife, etc. I was elected to take bad people out of the United States, among other things. I must be allowed to do my job. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
President Trump shared the image in response to attempts by Garcia’s wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, to doctor images of her husband to hide the gang tattoo.
Democrat lawmakers and opponents of President Trump have claimed that Garcia was wrongly deported to El Salvador, where he was confined in President Bukele’s Center for Terrorist Confinement (CECOT) as part of a $6 million deal with the US to house foreign gang members deported from the US using the Alien Enemies Act.
Lawmakers, including Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Maryland), travelled to El Salvador this week to call for Garcia’s return. Sen. Van Hollen met with Garcia for a photo opportunity, after he was released from CECOT.
