Stephen Miller starts as White House chief of staff
Don't overlook this: When Trump admitted immigration enforcement helped cause the GOP bloodbath, he actually undercut JD Vance. Trump acknowledged that Americans like immigrants. JD has been subtly trying to absolve white nationalism from any/all blame. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/2177...
Greg Sargent276JD Vance has been blaming the war and has only allowed that voters rejected ICE *enforcement tactics.* The goal is to insulate the underlying white-nationalist agenda from blame. Trump admitted voters think immigration is good. MAGA can't allow that to be admitted. newrepublic.com/article/2177...
Keith7Please don’t use the euphemism “immigration enforcement.” The majority of voters have no problem with enforcing immigration laws. It’s the lawlessness and cruelty they take issue with.
Princess of Ely5I think Trump is trying to sabotage JD Vance, I think he hated him. But then I think JD hates Trump too.
Claire M5These two are going to be the Bickersons for the next two years. Delightful.
Dungeon Crawler Carreiro2tbf, Trump is full of shit, too. That's why this is even funnier
Lois Weiner2Fine piece! Kudos! Has Trump actually said ICE's atrocities were a mistake, or that they went too far? That's different from stepping back from the idea of "immigration enforcement."
Max Berger333Trump actually admitted that his immigration policy was unpopular and caused the blue tsunami. I'm sure we'll hear apologies from the centrist pundits who said Democrats shouldn't raise the salience of the issue any day now (lololol).
Ian Carrillo126Hopefully this disagreement drives a wedge within the MAGA coalition.
Sailor Michael100Vance l's job is to promote Thiel's vision. That's white nationalism.
Alan Elrod74“Most Americans think immigration is good. They believe enforcement has gone too far—not just with its violent tactics, but also with its underlying goal of emptying the country of immigrants.” @gregsargent.bsky.social rightly points out that Ds need to grab the reins on immigration, not fear MAGA
Kenneth Trease62True believers and grifters alike finding out Trump cares about nothing but himself. For the umpteenth time.
Joe Sudbay59"Trump seems to have acknowledged on 60 Minutes that Americans like immigrants. Miller’s appointment means he won’t act on this realization. But his admission still undercuts the MAGA theory of this election, and of American politics more broadly, on a very deep level."
🇨🇦 sophialarkrose.bsky.social35If there's anything Trump knows how to do, it's undercut people.
davidrlurie7Xenophobia and racism are even more central to the neo-fascism Vance and Carlson are selling than they have been to Trumpism. Any hint Trump will bow, however slightly, to the public's widespread disgust at his war against (non-white) immigrants is a threat to his VP and heir-apparent.
Stephen Miller has been the architect of Trump's cruel and unconstitutional mass deportation campaign. Todd Blanche doesn't want us to take him on. Why? The American people deserve accountability for the harms done by ICE and DHS in this country.
Maria II4Investigate Miller and Blanche simultaneously.
Lucy Fyson3We're rooting for you - across the world - to hold this cruel and corrupt government to account. 💪
annie1234.bsky.social1Probably because toady Toddy needs to clone to keep up with the case load of crimes in this administration. You go full force holding Stephen Miller accountable for his crimes. We are counting on it!
Ana1PLEASE put your name forward as candidate for Speaker. We need you in that role, not Hakeem Jeffries.
UniversalHealthcare1Millions of Americans want all trump regime thugs in jail Blanche, we hate you Todd. Blanche said on TV Miller was promoted to put the American people in fear. What a sick bastard. I guess Blanche hasn't lawyered up because his lawyer would have told him to stop talking on TV all the time.
Knew it was coming. The initial reaction was his little grey cells banging together like monkey cymbals, trying to smash together some sense of what was going on. But he’s decided now. So we’ve got Trump, Stephen Miller and Todd Blanche working out how to fight reality.
Seb Downie-Blackwell 🔜 Games Ground Berlin13Yeah it all went a little too easily. Was expecting more Jan 6th energy and urgency though. Feels like it might be a little late to pull out this card.
Jack’s Complete Lack of Surprise7And Hegseth fired all the generals and admirals who would have protected the constitution.
Tim Crutchley7quite aside from anything else... didn't the polls acutally underpredict the Democratic success?!
Manimal3"coming together like monkey cymbals" Freaking brilliant. No way to come back after that.
jaimi.bsky.social3Miller is backed by Roger “Stop the Steal” Stone, by the way, who is now openly calling for the purge of Susie Wiles’s remaining faction in between ranting against DeSantis and his backers (who include Newt Gingrich) and generalized fury at the universe over on Twitter
Pppatticake3Shut up, piggy (to him, not to you, Duncan)
juha_h (pro antifa)4Tästä tulikin mieleen, että nyt kun Yle taas kaivoi Ruotsilan koipallojen seasta kommentoimaan välivaaleja, yhä vähemmän tärkeältä tuntuu noudattaa totuttua puoli yhdeksän iltarituaalia. Eletään niin eri todellisuudessa nykyään. Heidän mielestä tässä on jokin järki, minusta ei hiukkaakaan.
DJ Markymarc2Donald J Trump hasn't realised what an asset he is for the Democratic party. It's his modesty that makes him want to double check it's not all him. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Q: "You told 60 Minutes that you felt your deportation policy might have gone too far, but then you named...Stephen Miller, to be your chief of staff? Have you told him that you want changes to the deportation policy?" Trump: "No. We have a very strong deportation policy…My policy hasn't changed."
Kathi25Surprising absolutely no one but Susan Collins.
catman6.bsky.social10I want to see a very strong impeachment policy
erbmike.bsky.social9His brain has the consistency of applesauce.
Dave3it is time to take the keys away from Grandpa
Laure2Trump is bringing Steven Miller and Vought closer in, arguably the two (outside of Hegseth) who destroyed his presidency the most... the reason is? those two are expert into sucking up to Trump. would be a good discussion? cc @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social @timmiller.bsky.social @jvl.bsky.social
billygreg.bsky.social1When you get the dogshit kicked out of you and you learn nothing.
David Ryan Miller20Congratulations to everyone who watched 60 Minutes last night and truly believed that Donald Trump was looking to moderate on immigration. You've fallen for it. Again.
Will Harris9I am shocked - SHOCKED, I say! - that he had no intention of changing his policy despite those remarks.
🍂John Insert Thanksgiving Pun Brooks🦃5How are we in anno domini 2026 and educated adults are asking Trump if he really meant a thing he recently said as if he has any actual beliefs at all and isn't just a guy who will say whatever random thing he feels like saying to get him through to the next minute of his life? How?
📌We never learn. Trump gives a slobbery interview on right-wing TV, hinting at softening his murderous immigration stance. The media swoons. Two days earlier, he placed a bigot, Stephen Miller, at the center of everything in his odious WH. STOP listening to what he says and watch what he does.
happy first day of the new job to Stephen Miller, enjoy your last gig before prison buddy
Engineeringdude8I believe prison labor should be outlawed as a crime against hummanity, however
Nick Bombowsky4Is going from America’s Himmler to America’s Goebbels a promotion or a lateral move?
Kaye Ross3He’s the kind of guy who goes to jail no matter what. No money, no family, no connections outside of the movement. The softest “let’s turn the page” democrat has no reason not to bury this fuck
Sam in Da Box1Gosh it’d a shame if he got shanked. A real bummer ya know
Now w Stephen Miller by his side Trumple Foreskin is back at it, lying about fraudulent midterms. The evil is deeper than the slit in his vag neck
Dwdingus7With Kegsbreath up for vote for impeachment, who's next
TrueTeller3Politics 101: If you are going to battle in defense, find high ground. Never show weakness, even if you are, in this case, not showing concern; otherwise, you will undermine morale among your people. Trump's only play is to pretend; convince us all he's strong and popular.
Cig Ciglar1That would be the only thing about him that had any depth.
Kendra1I would say ass neck. Vaginas are awesome in comparison!
Cheryll1Good afternoon girl… ☕️ ☕️ ☕️ ( hot cocoa right now .. needed a chocolate fix 🤪) Im Late today…Rough night at magavile..although some were unusually quiet. Millers name came up… they had nothing to say…. I wonder why? I had plenty… but I wish I’d had your above comment to throw out there.
Truth Axe (CJ)1Miller is like the Formundacheese (formundachin?) from said neck slit.
It’s absolutely disgusting that Afghan civilians risked their lives helping US soldiers in Afghanistan and then fled to America and now Trump and the Temu Nostradumbass Stephen Miller want to deport them back to the Taliban and to their deaths Just so disgusting 🤢
Rebirth🇺🇸Begins🤞🙏.....1As long as Trump remains in office, we cannot move forward. The World is watching to see how we use this opportunity. If we do not remove this corruption ASAP, they will see us as weak & untrustworthy. This removal must be done in order to ever begin to regain the trust and respect of the World.
Beagles❌👑Resist1It's a war crime. A crime against humanity. This is a level of depravity that defies understanding.
genofanuci.bsky.social1I want to live long enough to see the Pedo and his administration and so many members of Congress, tried, convicted and sent to a deep dark hole where they pump sunshine to them and feed them with a pea shooter.
