Heather Cox Richardson looks at Stephen Miller's "call for a 'labor class' excluded from citizenship and a voice in government" and explores its close parallels to the call of slaveholding elites in the US prior to the Civil War to defend slavery and uphold a hierarchical, male-dominated white Christian society in which some people have rights and humanity and others are excluded. #StephenMiller #slavery #immigrants /1 https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/january-31-2026
