Thomas Zimmer notes that after the shooting of National Guard members in D.C., Trump said that he would shut the doors of America to anyone "non-compatible with Western civilization." He then attacked Somali immigrantss and Ilhan Omar, calling them "garbage." Kristi Noem's followed by calling immigranta "foreign invaders." Stephen Miller attacked birthright ciitzenship. Then there's the new NSS document.

Trumpism Is at War with the Idea of a Citizenry of Equals

The regime’s latest racist fury is tied to the Right’s much broader attempt to redefine citizenship and national identity in service of an exclusionary white nationalist

Steady

The NSS document tries to bully Europe into adopting MAGA notions of white supremacy and Christian nationalism as guiding principles. Zimmer says,

"These aren’t just a few racist outbursts or isolated escalations. These are not separate policy initiatives. These are manifestations of a worldview defined by white nationalism as its organizing principle."

"They are tied to a much broader rightwing attempt to reconceptualize national identity and drastically narrow the boundaries of who gets to belong. They are actualizations of the Right’s defining project: To roll back any progress towards egalitarian pluralism, to vanquish the very idea that America should aspire to be a nation defined by equal citizenship in a pluralistic, multiracial society," (continued in /4)

"and to fight instead for white Christian male supremacy at home and in the world. ...

That is true for Donald Trump himself also. He is not just a grumpy old man indulging in racist stereotypes, but a politician committed to a worldview shaped and organized by racism and white supremacy. What is on display here is not just personal bigotry."

"Donald Trump pursues a political project for which white nationalism serves as an organizing principle. ...

The Trumpists desire to drastically narrow the boundaries of who gets to belong, they seek to purge all others from the 'homeland.' Those who are left would be living in a society that is not only unequal but has ostracized egalitarian aspirations as heresy."

"The coercive powers of the state would be mobilized to curtail the rights of those who dare to deviate and entrench a tiered system of participation defined by hierarchies of race, gender, religion, wealth, and ancestry. A segregationist policy would restore white male dominance in elite institutions as well as across all spheres of American life."

"The MAGA claim that white Christians in the United States and Europe are engaged in an existential fight to protect their superior race from being overwhelmed by inferior racial stocks has roots in the U.S. that reach all the way back to the fears of white southerners in the 1850s" (continued in /7)

"White Christian groups are the most likely to approve of the job Trump is doing handling immigration, including nearly three in four white evangelical Protestants. A majority of white mainline/non-evangelical Protestants (62%) and white Catholics (59%) also approve of Trump’s job on immigration."

The New Immigration Crackdown: Where Americans Stand

A new PRRI report considers how receptive Americans are to the second Trump administration’s handling of immigration and their support for several different immigration-related policies.

PRRI

"I think, for me, the biggest takeaway from the [PRRI] survey is that the Trump administration's second term immigration agenda is mobilizing his base, particularly white evangelical Protestants and Christian nationalists, but it's really alienating a lot of other Americans across the board."

"We find those Americans who are the strongest adherents to that ideology, about one in 10 Americans, really look very distinct on immigration policy. They're, I think, the most draconian in their views about immigration."

Robert P. Jones notes that though the US Catholic bishops have issued a rare statement condemning Trump's attacks on Immigrants, the archdiocese of Boston has leaned on a Catholic parish in Dedham, Massachusetts, to take down its Christmas creche, which indicts ICE for cruelty to immigrants.

"While the Catholic bishops may be showing signs of ambivalence, there are signs that Americans overall are sympathetic to these churches who are taking a stand. This week, PRRI released new analysis of American attitudes on immigration reform that show Americans are rejecting Trump’s dehumanizing, racist rhetoric and harsh immigration policies."

"Support for Trump’s immigration policies have dropped across nearly every demographic over the first year of Trump’s second term. Today, only 43% of Americans approve of the job Trump is doing handling immigration, a decrease of 5 percentage points since March 2025. Notably, the steepest decline in approval over the past year—11 points—comes from political independents. ...

The data shows that Americans overwhelmingly reject Trump’s mass deportation policies."

Oh no, mass migration is on the rise...

Because the global climate change will probably drive more people to leave their countries than centuries of war, and religious /political persecutions...

Denying it is just stupidly hiding your head in the sand
