When Stephen Miller offered his first big rollout of Donald Trump's immigration agenda during the 2024 campaign, he demonstrated great enthusiasm for the idea of giant migrant camps. He gushed about creating "vast holding facilities" built on "open land," which would enable Trump to escalate the volume and speed of deportations to unprecedented heights. Trembling with excitement, Miller vowed: "President Trump will do whatever it takes."
But a funny thing has happened with Miller's authoritarian fever dreams. As plans for these new detention facilities have become public, they're encountering opposition in some very unlikely places. Notably, that includes regions that backed Trump in 2024.
Which in turn captures something essential about this moment: The public backlash unleashed by Trump's immigration agenda runs far deeper than revulsion at imagery of ICE violence. It's now seemingly coalescing against the goal of mass removals as a broader ideological project.
