By all available indicators, Stephen Miller not only viscerally hates immigrants but also derives pleasure from imposing pain on them and their defenders. Utterly detached from reality.

The war in Gaza has killed or injured 170,000. Children are starving to death. Trump is encouraging the ethnic cleansing of 2.2 million people. Why is there no discussion in the US government about why we are spending billions of taxpayer dollars starving children in Gaza?

👏👏👏 Secretary Noem, your dept is out of control. You’re spending money you don’t have, ignoring immigration law, vanishing dissenters, and acting like elections erase the Constitution. Congress didn’t give you a blank check—or a crown. Thank you Sen. Chris Murphy for calling it out. #BlueSky #MedSky

CFPB employees can't own stocks in companies that the agency regulates. A DOGE employee was warned by ethics lawyers that he held nearly $700K in stock in such companies. He then carried out mass firings at the agency – including those ethics lawyers. The corruption couldn’t be any more blatant.
