    Weird how we only start seeing these kinds of ideas hit news sites just when people are starting to turn on the ol’ GOP.

    Like, we’ve been seeing this guy vomit hateful, nonsensical bullshit for years now and everyone out here with half a brain just looking at each other like, “Is this for real?” but apparently Doctor-Evil-Meets-Wormtongue actually running policy in our country is fine. It’s fine. Don’t worry about it. Go back to your slop, piggies.

    But now when people are talking about primaries and voting out incumbents, suddenly everyone is scrambling to throw everyone else under the bus and we get stories like this finally reaching our eyes.

    I mean, this absolute freak of nature has been screaming on camera like Elliot Rogers reincarnated for so long, that it feels obvious and hollow now that people are talking about it. Feels very “It’s only bad when we’re in trouble.”

      Wtf are you talking about? These stories have been out there the whole time. Last week. Last month. Last year.

      A problem is that they’re still not mainstream articles. Like this one.

      NYT did have a number of negative articles about Miller as well, but people weirdly don’t give enough of a shit.

    They are ALL dangerous, they just specialize in different parts of a shitty rainbow. RFK, Noem, Bovino, Miller, Thiel, Elon, Bari, Johnson, Schumer, Maxwell, The Orange One, and so many others…

    ALL need to be trialed and hanged. Anything less, would allow the next generation of shitbirds to do this again.

      Yep. We need to deal with the current crop of traitors, and do it so strongly and decisively, that future assholes will find another hobby.

      And if they don’t, it should make it harder for them to find supporters.

    Normal people cry at the end of Schindler’s list because of all the Jews who got away. Stephen Miller cries at the end of Schindler’s List because of all the Jews who got away.

    Why do you think I keep challenging him to fist fights? He’s the most evil one in DC and that’s saying A LOT.

    I’m convinced Miller is running the country right now. Nothing else fits the evidence.

    Bondi is likely more answerable to Trump since she’s leading Trump’s personal revenge squad, but articles earlier suggested she does follow strategy set by Miller. For example, I wouldn’t be surprised if Miller also directed the decision to pardon all J6-ers since it fits a little too perfectly into his turn-ICE-into-Trump’s-militia strategy.

      100% agree. Also, trump never gives pardons away for free. He normally charges at least a couple of million each. No way it was his idea to pardon a bunch of poors.

      I am pretty sure it’s whoever the last person was to talk to him. That’s why people fight so hard for access.

        This is exactly it.

        Last to talk to him and know how - kiss his ass, tell him how whatever it is will make him look good, etc.

      Fun fact: Steven Miller doesn’t get Secret Service protection.

      He did recently move into military housing after somebody graffiti’d the street outside his house (or something like that), though.

          It’s a shame Miller is too much of a sniveling coward to stay in his own house.

          While it is a bit different I’ve heard of veterans getting into bases without proper authorization before. Mind you that’s prolly cause the guys on duty just assume they’re friends or family of someone on the base but still, but I also suspect that whatever base is housing Miller probably has stricter orders or at least the attempt to have them what with malicious compliance and all.

            The post-9/11 security theater is almost entirely abandoned. Shit, the gate guard was born after 9/11. It is not hard to get onto a base.

    Yes, he should be at the top of the list of admin to fire and prosecute the instant Trump is out of power, but it’s a huge mistake to think that he is “the” problem or even the worst one, rather than Trump. Yeah, sure, Miller is Head Ghoul on the Trump 2.0 team (I heard “Grossferatu” lmao!), but he’s just one of many sycophantic enablers that are responsible for the horrors we all experience at the hand of Trump. And the recent Vanity Fair article revealed a lot more about the dynamics of Trump’s cabinet than they’re comfortable with.\
