Former Chief Counsel for Nominations on the Senate Judiciary Committee, former law clerk to Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch, and now influential MAGA figure and close Trump ally Mike Davis has vented about “b—hing minorities”. Davis, speaking on X, proposed a solution in which minorities could be paid to leave the United States on the basis that they renounce their citizenship.
Davis said, in reference to a video of Socialism 2026 speaker Raven Schwam-Curtis discussing settler colonialism: Dear B—hing Minorities: Here’s my proposal for your reparations: One-way tickets anywhere. 6 months of living expenses. Renounce your U.S. citizenship. Never come back. Good luck. You’ll need it. (Especially with that nappy-ass head of hair.)”
It’s safe to say Davis’ idea hasn’t been warmly received. The replies are almost universal in their condemnation of a plan to eject minorities and remove their citizenship.
“Did the Klan hack your account?”
One said, “I miss the days when politics had class and decorum! Now we’re stuck with this hillbilly vermin! You shall be treated the same way you treat people! You’re a disgrace to American politics”, while another wondered, “Did the Klan hack your account?”, someone described him as a “a sick and ungodly man”, and another said, “I for real thought no one would possibly state this so proudly. Shameful..”
In far-right circles, Davis’ plan falls under the “remigration” umbrella, a set of policies intended to coerce (or just plain force) migrants to return to what the US government deems to be their home countries. For example, Donald Trump himself, during the 2024 presidential campaign, promised to “return Kamala’s illegal migrants to their home countries (also known as remigration)” and went on to announce an Office of Remigration within the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration.
However, the “remigration” proposals by no means stop at simply deporting illegal immigrants. As EUObserver details, this would merely be the first wave, then they would be followed by legal immigrants or residents, then America-born minorities, until you’re deporting anyone deemed to be racially unAmerican. Logically, that should eventually also include those of white European descent, though in practise it obviously wouldn’t.
Fortunately, while Davis is influential, he is not currently deciding US immigration policy. However, he reportedly speaks frequently with Trump and has been mooted as a possible Attorney General. And, as is so often the case with Trump decisions, what begins as a joke (for example, renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America) can very rapidly become the policy of the United States Government.
