Miller's Mass Deportation Plan

The article discusses escalating attacks on democratic rights in the United States, exemplified by recent statements from Trump ally Stephen Miller. Miller outlined plans for a second Trump administration, including mass deportations, detentions in military-style camps, and the deployment of the military against civilian populations. These plans represent a significant expansion of executive power and a disregard for constitutional protections. The article argues that these threats are not merely hypothetical. It points to the ongoing persecution of Julian Assange, the erosion of voting rights, and the militarization of the police as evidence of a broader assault on democratic freedoms. The Democrats, according to the article, are incapable of defending these rights, prioritizing their own political interests and aligning with sections of the ruling class that also seek to suppress dissent. The article emphasizes that the root cause of these attacks lies in the inherent contradictions of capitalism. Facing economic crisis, social inequality, and the threat of working-class opposition, the ruling elite is turning to authoritarian measures to maintain its power. The article concludes that the working class, united across national and ethnic lines, is the only force capable of defending democratic rights and fighting for a socialist alternative to the capitalist system. find the original article here: https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/05/03/twwa-m03.html
