The man is as evil as he is ugly. He is in a category all by himself. Of all his minions, Miller's voice grates on your nerves as well.
He decided, of course, to defend the ICE thugs that caused the riots and called the protests an "insurrection." No, that's what Donald Trump caused on January 6th.
He made an overblown post on it:
Sovereignty too. That's just way too much hyperbole, even for me. That's reserved to an attack by a foreign country.
Not everybody got away with criticizing Miller. ABC's Terry Moran posted on X, now deleted:
"Trump is a world-class hater. But his hatred [is] only a means to an end, and that end his [is, sic] his own glorification. That's his spiritual nourishment."
Miller was also part of the post where Miller "is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred...he eats his hate."
ABC has suspended Moran pending "further evaluation." Miller responded to Moran's post. Before or after Moran's suspension I don't know. Mostly likely before:
Miller and Trump now get to gloat over Moran's suspension.
JD Vance had to jump into the fray.
Sometimes people need to think carefully about their social media, about what job they've got, and what they're posting. For the likes of Trump, Vance and Miller, they don't have to care. They're not news reporters, they're newsmakers. With that acquisition of Skydance Disney-ABC wants in the balance, and FCC Chair Brendan Carr investigating Disney-ABC for DEI civil rights discrimination, ABC News is in a hard place. Bad timing for Moran.
Stephen Miller got roasted for his comments on the LA protests.
Podcaster Brian Allen said, "This isn't just chaos, it's a full-blown standoff. Miller is demanding National Guard deployment and federal arrests. The stakes just got raised. Stephen Miller; the guy who architected family separation, is now crying 'insurrection' because Californians dared to protest ICE raids. You don't get to weaponize the government, then act shocked when the people fight back. California isn't backing down."
Political junkie Richard Angwin said, "Calling peaceful protest an 'insurrection' disrespects our democracy. Protesting unjust policies is a constitutional right, not sedition. Miller's rhetoric endangers civil liberties and distorts the meaning of real threats."
Los Angeles Mayor Bass had her own statement which Miller attacked.
Donald Trump had to stick his nose in, too. Migrant riots justifies all excessive force.
Gov. Newsom was trying to calm things down.
Rep. Gil Cisneros was trying to do Oversight, which is his job.
Stephen Miller was even more full of it today.
Richard Grenell is the Special Presidential Envoy for Special Missions. Going where he has no business. Complete lies as explained at the bottom.
Pete Hegseth being a jerk and threatening to use the Marines against US citizens on U.S. soil. It's illegal to do so.
Rep. Ted Lieu brings some sanity into the picture with 10 U.S.C. ยง 12406 and The Posse Comitatus Act, which says you can't use US Armed Forces on US soil. The National Guard can if called up by the state's governor. Newsom hasn't. Trump's emergency is invalid. The Marines, no way.
The fallout from this will go on for days. Trump, Vance, Hegseth and the diabolical Miller will get their comeuppance and be shown to be fools. They'll claim victory and be exposed as idiots.
It can't come soon enough.
