Trump official says Americans deserve reparations for migrant crisis
Share and Follow

One of President Trump’s closest allies has suggested everyday Americans deserve to be paid reparations for the trauma they’ve experienced dealing with illegal migrants.

Trump’s Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller was incensed by a suggestion that  Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal migrant with suspected ties to the MS-13 gang, was entitled to reparations after he was deported to a hellish El Salvadorian prison.

Instead, Miller said it was American citizens who deserved to receive compensation after their cities, schools and communities were overrun with migrants and gangs.

‘Look at Los Angeles. Once a paradise of safety, security, and prosperity, entire neighborhoods are occupied and controlled by foreign gangs,’ he told Newsmax.

‘Where do all the residents who’ve been displaced, who’ve been forced from Los Angeles – where do they go to get their reparations?’

Miller expressed concern for school-aged children, noting: ‘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,’ he said.

‘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, asking whether the ‘victims of fentanyl poisoning brought in by Democrats’ open border,’ deserve reparations.

‘Hundreds of thousands of moms and dads whose kids are dead and buried in the ground. Where do they go to get their reparations from the government?,’ he asked.

‘And then all the women who have been raped, who have 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. 

‘Where do any of these people go? Where do any of their families go to get reparations?’

Miller said Americans could ‘spend the rest of our lives trying to document the harms’ caused by illegal migration into the nation. 

‘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,’ he said.

‘Where does our whole country go to get repaid for all of the wealth, all of the prosperity and security that has been stolen from us by decades of uncontrolled, illegal mass migration, because we all deserve reparations for what has been stolen from us. 

‘It is a tragedy that defies our ability to even describe it.’

Miller’s impassioned speech has attracted support from MAGA loyalists who praised him for shining a light on matters directly impacting them.

‘Thank you Stephen Miller for highlighting the truth about mass migrations impact. Our lives change drastically and we are still owed for the damages,’ one supporter wrote. 

Others told him he is a ‘national treasure.’

There are several examples of the United States paying reparations in the past, including to Native American tribes for land taken by the government.

Trump also floated the possibility of creating a compensation fund for January 6 rioters who were convicted – and later pardoned by the president – for their roles in the attack on the Capitol.

But the Trump administration has focused on reversing the ‘migrant crisis’ by embarking on the largest mass deportation agenda in the nation’s history.

Since March, El Salvador has accepted from the United States more than 200 Venezuelan immigrants whom Trump administration officials have accused of gang activity and violent crimes.

The case which got Miller so riled up centers upon Abrego Garcia, who was reportedly deported in ‘error’ but has not been allowed to return to the United States.

The case has become a focal point in the national immigration debate. Democrats insist that President Donald Trump is overstepping his executive authority and disrespecting the courts, but  Republicans are criticizing Democrats for defending a man Trump and White House officials claim is an MS-13 gang member, despite the fact that he has not been charged with any gang-related crimes.
