Katie Miller Deportation Threat Sparks Controversy in Debate with Cenk Uygur
During a televised debate, Katie Miller, a former Trump administration official, threatened progressive commentator Cenk Uygur with deportation after he criticized her and her husband. Despite Uygur’s criticism of her husband, Miller baselessly accused him of antisemitism, even though Uygur made no comments about her faith or ethnicity. Miller’s threat, suggesting Uygur’s citizenship could be scrutinized, echoes the Trump administration’s past actions of targeting individuals critical of U.S. policy, particularly concerning Israel. This move has drawn widespread condemnation from human rights and free speech advocates, who view it as a violation of fundamental rights.
