  • Does Media Coverage of Immigration Lead to Anti-Immigrant Behavior?
    Beyond Agenda Setting: Does Media Coverage of Immigration Lead to Anti-Immigrant Behavior? Masha Krupenkin, Shawndra Hill, David Rothschild June 22, 2020 Abstract This paper studies the influence of news coverage of immigrants on anti-immigrant beliefs and behaviors. Using news transcripts, Google Trends data, and a novel dataset of Bing web searches for immigration-related topics, we examine the role of media coverage of immigra- tion topics during the 2016 election and Trump presidency on searches for information about immigrants related to crime and welfare dependency as well as how to report immigrants to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). We catalogue significant and sustained increases in news segments on crime by immigrants and their use of public services after Trump’s in- auguration and find that searches for crime and welfare related to immigrants are correlated with the daily volume of news on immigrant crime and welfare. We find a similar sustained increase in searches for how to report undocumented immigrants that is strongly correlated with the daily volume of immigrant crime news. Using timestamped searches for immigra- tion during broadcasts of Trump’s and Obama’s speeches, we confirm the causal effect of anti- immigrant media coverage on searches for immigration and crime, welfare, and how to report immigrants to ICE. The findings indicate that media’s choices regarding the coverage of immi- grants can have a strong impact not only on attitudes but also behaviors. Introduction The 2016 election ushered in a sea change regarding political discourse about immigration. Donald Trump made immigration a signature issue, kicking off his campaign with the pro- nouncement that “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best..

ON PETITION FOR A WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SECOND CIRCUIT PETITION FOR A WRIT OF CERTIORARI JEFFREY B. WALL Acting Solicitor General Counsel of Record HASHIM M. MOOPPAN Counselor to the Solicitor General SOPAN JOSHI Senior Counsel to the Assistant Attorney General REBECCA TAIBLESON Assistant to the Solicitor General SCOTT R. MCINTOSH JENNIFER L. UTRECHT Attorneys Department of Justice Washington, D.C. 20530-0001 [email protected] (202) 514-2217 QUESTION PRESENTED Twitter, Inc. is a social media company that enables its users to create accounts through which they post “tweets” and interact with each other. Twitter permits users to “block” other individual users’ accounts, and a blocked user account cannot directly see or reply to the blocking user’s tweets. President Donald J. Trump cre- ated a Twitter account as a private citizen in 2009. He has continued to use that personal account since assum- ing the Presidency, including to announce official ac- tions or policies. In 2017, President Trump blocked in- dividual respondents’ Twitter accounts from his per- sonal account after respondents posted messages on their accounts criticizing him or his policies. The court of appeals held that, in doing so, President Trump vio- lated the First Amendment. The question presented is: Whether the First Amendment deprives a govern- ment official of his right to control his personal Twitter account by blocking third-party accounts if he uses that personal account in part to announce official actions and policies.

  • Trump's New Face of Power in America
    Trump’s New Face of Power in America (updated and revised June 2021) Bob Hanke1 York University, Toronto, Canada Abstract: This article proposes that the advent of Trumpism was an historical moment of danger that compels us to analyze the micropolitics of the present. In the first part, I describe the constellation that gave rise to Trumpism. In the second part, I recall Goffman’s concept of face-work and discuss how it remains relevant for describing Trump’s aggressive face-work. In the third part, I take Deleuze and Guattari’s concept of faciality as a point of departure for understanding micro- fascism. As an abstract machine, Trump’s faciality engendered and diffused fascisizing micropolitics around a messenger/disrupter in chief. It worked in connection with a landscape and relative to a collective assemblage of enunciation that extracted a territory of perception and affect. In the micropolitics of the present, the defining feature of Trumpism was how the corrupt abuse of power and the counterforces limiting his potency collided on an ominous, convulsive political reality TV show that threatened US democracy. Keywords: Trumpism, face-work, faciality, assemblage, micropolitics, impeachment, coronavirus pandemic We are all sufferers from history, but the paranoid is a double sufferer, since he is afflicted not only by the real world, with the rest of us, but by his fantasies as well. – Richard Hofstadter (1964) When a man unprincipled in private life desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, possessed of considerable talents,

  • Of MAGA, Witch Hunt, and Fake News, Which Is the Greatest Stick of the Trump Covfefe?
    The Good, The Bad, and The Sticky: Of MAGA, Witch Hunt, and Fake News, which is the greatest Stick of the Trump Covfefe? Author: Dr. Devon Simons Affiliation: The Department of International Politics, Aberystwyth University, Aberystwyth, Wales. Panel: ‘Stickiness and Silence: Explaining the Failures and Successes of Strategic Narrative’, presented at the International Studies Association Annual Conference in Toronto, Canada, March 23, 2019. Abstract: Building from topics in the authors previous paper, ‘Trump’s Matryoshka Method of Forced Perspective Concerning Russia’, presented for the panel, ‘Re-narrating Conflict: Media, Military and Public Translations of Strategic Narratives’, at ISA 2018; this paper will explore the stickiness of the phrases ‘Make America Great Again’, ‘Witch Hunt’, and ‘Fake News’, by President Trump. This paper will act as preliminary research towards a larger manuscript by the author. Towards that end, this paper will establish and test three discursive hypotheses; with the ultimate goal of narrowing down which hypothesis (a rhetorical narrative of President Trump) is most ripe for further research. By identifying discursive components surrounding certain phrases that have already risen to popularity, and ‘stuck’ within mainstream conversation, this paper seeks to identify how the phrases MAGA, Witch Hunt, and Fake News, may be anticipated to either stick to the Trump Presidency past its tenure, or which have sell-by date upon which they may fall into silence. Introduction Why do some phrases, templates, frames, or narratives, thrive in the digital media ecology when others do not? How do scholars define, measure, and anticipate ‘success’ concerning contemporary communication? With increasingly urgent and erratic discourse being thrown into the chaos of mainstream communication, how can we begin to understand why certain phrases seem to stick? This line of questioning has expanded in recent years, specifically surrounding the effectiveness and accuracy of political posts on social media.
