Trump Permanently Pauses Immigration While Hosting Thanksgiving Alone
KEY POINTS
- ā¢On November 30, 2025, Trump announced a permanent pause of immigration from all third world countries.
- ā¢This policy aligns closely with alt-right leader Richard Spencerās 2016 call for a 50-year immigration freeze.
- ā¢Stephen Miller, known from 2015 for citing white nationalist websites, publicly supported these views in the administration.
- ā¢The administration created a State Department office to promote 'remigration,' reflecting openly embraced hardline immigration stances.
On Thanksgiving night 2025, traditionally a day to welcome and share, President Donald Trump joyfully declared a permanent pause on immigration from all 'Third World Countries,' citing a need for the US system to 'fully recover.' This new policy curiously resembles a 2016 speech by alt-right figure Richard Spencer, who mused about a 50-year ban on non-European immigration. Trump's White House, with Stephen Millerāwho once privately emailed white nationalist websites in 2015āopenly embraced these hardline views. Miller also popularized the delightful 'magic dirt' theory, denying any transformation of immigrants from societies he branded "messed-up." Meanwhile, Trumpās Cabinet called Somali immigrants whoopsie āgarbageā, and an official 'Office of Remigration' now officially exists to orchestrate putting folks back where they came from. All in all, the White House put diversity-themed masks under soulful chairs, unmasked, and said 'hello darkness, my old friend.'
