White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller delivered a masterclass in dismantling the liberal media’s narrative during a contentious interview with CNN’s Boris Sanchez. The CNN anchor attempted to run cover for the violent leftists terrorizing American cities, but Miller was having none of it. Sanchez feebly attempted to characterize the radicals in Portland and Chicago as merely “rowdy” demonstrators, a blatant and dangerous misrepresentation of the facts on the ground.
Miller immediately seized on this absurdity, firing back with undeniable evidence of their terrorism. “Yeah, they’re posting pictures of their kids, because it’s a demonstration, and they have a sniper on top of a building firing a high caliber rifle at a an ICE facility, because it’s a demonstration, and they are engaged in a vehicle ramming because it’s a demonstration?” This powerful rebuttal exposed the sheer intellectual dishonesty of the corporate media, which consistently downplays left-wing violence while hysterically condemning any action taken by the Trump administration to restore law and order.
The confrontation intensified when Sanchez tried to draw a false equivalence, questioning why the National Guard wasn’t deployed to Dallas. Miller expertly shut down this flawed line of questioning. “Because the Dallas Police Department and the governor of Texas— Wow, you walked right into that one— have responded to every call for assistance and help. They gave a stand-down order in Chicago, and they gave a stand-down order in Portland.” This critical distinction highlights a fundamental truth: the chaos in Democrat-run cities is a direct result of seditious local officials who have ordered their police to stand down, forcing President Trump to use federal authority to protect American citizens.
Undeterred by facts, Sanchez continued to parrot the talking points of radical Democrats, specifically siding with Illinois Governor JB Pritzker’s vile and baseless accusation that federal agents are engaged in racial profiling. Sanchez asked, “is it the case that, as Pritzker frames it, you are profiling brown people, that this immigration Crackdown is designed to go after people of color?” This is the go-to smear of the left, designed to impugn the character of law enforcement and delegitimize the vital work of ICE.
Miller’s response was swift and devastating, calling the question exactly what it was: “That is the, it’s such a— Oh, what a dumb question?” He then articulated the core principle of immigration enforcement, stating, “The illegal aliens who are here are taking jobs away from blacks, they’re taking jobs away from whites, they’re taking jobs away from Latinos… We cannot have a system of law in this country that privileges illegal aliens over American citizens.” Even after this comprehensive answer, Sanchez pressed further, demanding an unequivocal “no,” to which Miller, laughing at the anchor’s desperation, concluded, “My full answer is no, that is a lie, and it’s a dumb question!” This entire exchange serves as a perfect microcosm of the Trump administration’s battle against a dishonest media that consistently sides with lawbreakers over law enforcement and puts partisan narratives ahead of public safety.
