"Iron laws of the world"? Some of America's most important national accomplishments are about leading humanity away from this kind of bullshit.
If we let ideologues like Stephen Miller drag us back into a world where brute force is all that matters, all of us will be less safe.

Once again we see the Trump ethos that says simply being rich makes you “the best.”
You don’t need to have earned that money yourself or even done anything ethical to get it; if you’ve got cash in your bank account, that’s good enough for him to trust you and think you’re special.
