The Desperate Anti-Trump Attacks From the Left

posted by Derek Hunter at Townhall 

If you don’t watch CNN or MSNBC, you likely wouldn’t know President Donald Trump has a niece named Mary. If you only watched CNN or MSNBC, you likely wouldn’t know he had any other family. Why? Because Mary is what is called a “useful idiot” for the Left.

Mary Trump is the 60-year-old, unfortunate-looking, lesbian daughter of the president’s late alcoholic brother, Fred Trump Jr. She, apparently, has a Ph.D. in clinical psychology, so she’s “Dr. Trump” when making media appearances to give her angry comments a dash of credibility they otherwise wouldn’t have, especially considering she has had no contact with Donald Trump for nearly a decade.

The standards of her profession no longer restrict her ability to diagnose someone without having examined or interviewed them.

Being a useful idiot to the Left means not only being a weapon for them, it means money. Democrats love money – the louder they scream about the need to get it out of politics, the more they rub their naked bodies on it when no one is looking. And Mary Trump can bring in money.

At one time, it was considered bad taste, even gross, to exploit someone’s familial ties for the express purpose of scoring political points, especially someone so clearly suffering deep-rooted family issues. But that day is done, Democrats will do literally anything – no matter how sketchy – for a buck, so Mary has become a sought-after fundraiser.

Something is so fundamentally broken in the Left that they get off on hearing someone with no ties beyond some DNA, and zero special insights of a personal nature, whine and complain about Donald Trump than just about anything else. Remember Barack Obama’s brother? The one who said he was not a good person and came out in support of Republicans? Yeah, neither do most people because the media ignored him – Obama’s own brother – because he was inconvenient with his living in poverty, ignored by his rich brother.

Somehow, Mary Trump, who hasn’t been anywhere near the president since an all-family gathering at the White House in 2017, is treated like she has spy cameras set up in the president’s head.

In a fundraising email for Democrats, Mary Trump opens, “Listen: What we are witnessing is not normal. It is not strong leadership. It is textbook fascism. My uncle is deploying the National Guard to American cities like Chicago and Los Angeles to advance his own political narrative of chaos and fear. He’s using the military as a prop, a tool of intimidation, and a stepping stone to unchecked power.”

Sounds like a Rachel Maddow monologue hoping to inspire another James Hodgkinson, doesn’t it? What it doesn’t sound like is anything close to reality – maybe Mary should see a psychologist? Or at least someone who has a clue about history.

“This is what authoritarians do: They create a crisis, then position themselves as the only solution,” the email continues. “They use force to silence dissent and normalize the militarization of our public life. It is a blatant and terrifying abuse of power, and it’s happening right now. The Democracy Defense Fund was created for this exact moment: to organize, to resist, and to win. Our strategy is clear, and it starts at the ground level.”

You pretty much have to have lived your whole adult life unloved to think you’ve found it with a political movement that uses you for money.

Ignoring the reality of where and why the National Guard has been used, Mary writes, “Our first line of defense is in the states. A pro-democracy governor has the power to reject this kind of dangerous federal overreach and protect the people of their state — and this November, we have the chance to elect Democratic governors in both Virginia and New Jersey.”

An idiot would conflate Virginia and New Jersey with Oregon and Illinois and the problems there caused by incompetent Democrats, but we aren’t dealing with a smart person here, we’re dealing with an angry one.

Before begging for money, the email concludes, “Donald can’t buy what we have — an army of people like you who are determined to protect our country and everything that we hold dear that he threatens.”

Is she launching a Guardian Angels chapter for the south side of Chicago? Of course not. None of these Democrats gives a damn about the wholesale slaughter of black people unless they can gain political advantage from it. No, she just wants money to elect Democrats, maybe she even wets her beak off what is raised.

It’s desperate to use a disconnected, even confused and angry, family member to raise political money. Moreover, it’s gross. But that’s who Democrats are, and that’s all Democrats have now.

The Blood Lust of Democrats Will Continue Until They Are Completely Destroyed

posted by Derek Hunter at Townhall 

It’s been just under a month since Charlie Kirk was murdered by a deranged Democrat for the sin of speaking words the left deemed “dangerous” and a “threat to democracy.” It’s been about three weeks since another Democrat tried to murder ICE agents for the crime of “enforcing federal immigration law.” This week, another Democrat who traveled across the country to murder a Supreme Court Justice was sentenced to the legal equivalent of touch of the wrist (a slap would be harder than what this guy got). After each of the incidents, Democrats took to podiums and social media accounts to decry political violence “on both sides” and say the tone needed to be “brought down.” They then went right back to calling everyone Hitler, hoping to inspire more killers.

Democrats used to wait until the bodies were buried before returning to attempting to inspire more violence. Then they changed to just waiting till there was an accurate body count before they exploited a tragedy. Now they chime in with their bile as the shots still echo in the sky.

Democrats inspired loyal MSNBC and Rachel Maddow fan James Hodgkinson to try to kill as many Republicans as possible by saying the GOP health plan would kill 10,000 people per year. Now, Democrats are saying the GOP cutting waste and fraud in Medicaid will lead to 50,000 unnecessary deaths per year – a fivefold increase you have to assume they hope will inspire five times as many unstable murderers. Neither was remotely true, but when did that matter to the left?

The bloodlust of the left knows no bounds. Their nominee for Attorney General of Virginia privately advocated for the murder of Republicans he didn’t like, and their children. Talk about sick, this bastard, Jay Jones, is remorseful…that he got caught. One can only imagine the messages about the ICE shooting and Kirk murder that he sent – they’re likely the equivalent of audio Viagra for someone like him.

Not to be outdone, Governor Fat Bastard in Illinois, the eternally douchey billionaire JB Pritzker, is actively calling for attacks on ICE agents because, well, because Trump. This walking cholesterol chunk thinks his money can buy him the presidency, so he’s trying to placate the violent left-wing mobs across the country hoping to be the first to claim the life of someone simply doing an important job protecting our nation’s sovereignty. 

If he succeeds, Governor Bob’s Big Boy will express his “sadness” in the traditional sense, while still calling for ICE to “get out of Chicago.” Why? Because it is agenda über alles, in its original German because this is what fascism does.

Pritzker’s pet, New Edition rejected member (I mean, check out that dude’s haircut) Brandon Johnson, mayor of Chicago, is actively denying ICE agents police protection when their mutant army attacks them.

Chicago police were ordered not only to not aid ICE agents under attack by leftist open border Nazis ramming their vehicles, they were told to avoid the area. That means it would have increased response times for police if someone opened fire on them. 

Democrats want blood. 

Congress should immediately pass a law making federal agents only subject to federal law if something happens in the conduct of their duties. This would supersede state laws and offer protection against frivolous state and local charges should – and this is what Democrats are hoping for – agents under attack have to defend themselves with deadly force. Having the president be able to offer pardons and prevent vindictive, politically motivated prosecutions against agents defending themselves from attacks the local Democrats inspire and encourage would disarm these evil people of their greatest weapon. 

I know I’m cynical, but you don’t have to be cynical to realize Democrats want more blood. To Democrats, the aimless activists attacking ICE agents are expendable. It’s their greatest value to the party, actually. If they get their way, whoever the unfortunate lost are will be lionized as victims and heroes, then become a rallying cry, then forgotten because their usefulness will have evaporated.

It's sad that we live in a time when half the political establishment is rooting for the murder of the other half, but this is where we find ourselves. We have to protect ourselves from Democrats, and the greatest protection is voting their asses out of office. With an unhinged flank and being completely out of power, the odds are higher their Brownshirts will attack them over perceived fecklessness than normal people. Then, and only then, might the opportunists on the left seek to quell the monsters they’ve created.

Until then, expect the bloodlust to continue.

Is Being Insanely Stupid Actually a Cunning Democrat Strategy?

posted by Kurt Schlichter at Townhall 

I think I am going to form a hip-hop group with some of my retired officer friends that we will call the Phat Generalzzz – dibs on being the human beatbox! That is, of course, a ridiculous idea, but you know how it differs from the nonsense the Dems keep trying to sell us? The difference is that I don’t mean it. I am not actually going to form a hip-hop group with some of my retired officer friends that we will call the Phat Generalzzz, though if I did, I would call dibs on being the human beatbox. But the Dems are serious about the ridiculous stuff they say and seek to put in effect as policy; in fact, they are positively solemn when they explain that it’s good for generals to be fat, that Trump is “Hitler 2: The Quickening,” and that dudes can totally get preggers.

Look, no one expects less from Democrats and their cuckold-curious former Republican fellow travelers than I do – one can literally not expect less from them; it’s been proven scientifically impossible. Yet, even I had to pause, scratch my head, and scan it for sarcasm (“IT’S CLEAN – NO SARCASM DETECTED”) when I saw that Sam Stein, who is some sort of poobah at one of the Dispatchwark Project outlets, tweeted with Margaret Dumont levels of fussy outrage that Hegseth fat-shamed the generals.

He did this on purpose, people.

Now, if he were trying to be funny, it would have been mildly amusing, but he wasn’t – when you join up with those groups, you agree to certain mandatory restrictions, like not having a sense of humor and not being allowed within 1000 feet of an elementary school. No, this guy was serious. He was mad that Pete Hegseth confronted the brass with his anti-fatassary agenda. So were the rest of his commie friends. Yes, he and his Dem dominatrixes were coming down foursquare in favor of the US military replacing blitzkrieg with Pritzkerkrieg.

And they did it with not just straight faces, but with those sour, super-serious faces you might see on MSNBC – is it still even called that? – during their daily announcement that “Today, once, again, Trump has finally crossed over the line into Third Reich territory with his shameless doing of things that he promised to do before winning the last election. Oh, well, I never!” No wonder normal people look at the Dems and wonder if they say insane things intentionally, or if it’s some strategy that we lesser beings cannot comprehend that involves the use of incomprehensibly stupid assertions to crowbar open the Overton Window.

You’ve got to wonder if they actually believe this stuff, or if they are simply saying the things that might keep their sociopathic left wing mutant allies from murdering them, too. In fact, some of those consultant-driven mini-videos that they’re all tweeting now – why do they all hold the lapel mic in their hand in front of their face, as if it were a demitasse cup of espresso from some continental café? – look more like hostage videos. “Why yes, we need to have a lumbering yeti with its member and its two buddies swinging from the yardarm in the teenage girls’ locker room because Rosa Parks would’ve wanted it that way!” they assert, eyes darting off camera to the frowning blue-haired 23-year-old gender studies major who is supervising them with a ring through her nose, looking like Ferdinand the Bull except significantly less hot.

They are already in failure stasis. Look, when you go Nazi, you have a rhetorical problem. You can’t go further. You can’t do worse. You’re at max epithet – or, as celebrated wine woman heartthrob and capering lib court jester Ta-Nehisi Coates says, max “epitaph.” You’re not going to out-Hitler Hitler. There’s no guy out there who Hitler would say, “Wow, I’d sure hate to be compared to him because he really sucks!” But you also can’t go backwards. There’s no retreat, because the guy is Hitler. It’s not like Hitler’s got his good points to be emphasized during your walk-back. So, you’re stuck. You’ve crossed the rhetorical event horizon. Once you go Hitler, you can’t do more and you can’t do less. You’re stuck with Der Führer on endless replay.

So, they’re treading water both because they can’t change their argument and they don’t dare to. They might get hurt. These guys are trapped between rock-heads and the hard cases, between the indescribably stupid and the lethally malignant forces in their party that cannot abide them saying anything that normal people might agree with. The normal people are hypothetical. They’re not right there, in your face, threatening you either with condemnation on the interwebs or with a primary or even with a rifle. But the hard left is. This is why Dem pols can’t back down. This is why they’ve got to go all in on stuff that every single person with a functioning brain cell knows is going to alienate normal people. 

And it’s not just politicians. It’s all the lefty cultural bigwigs. Take academics, please. At Harvard, after everything that has gone on, with the Republican Party in power and looking to pillage academia for foregoing academics in favor of commie insanity, they decided to hire a new professor. The professor is from Southeast Asia, apparently. It’s adrag queen named  LaWhore Vagistan– get it? And apparently it’s going to teach a course, in what I don’t know, but I think we’re pretty safe to assume it’s not particle physics. 

When not only the majority political party is coming down on you, but the society is coming down on you for abandoning your job and actively undermining our culture, this would probably not be the smartest course of action. You might consider rethinking some of your positions, maybe hiring some conservatives to show that you’re even-handed, and putting the kibosh on the Looney Tunes faculty. But no. “No, let’s find some pervert and put it front and center. That’ll show you knuckle-dragging normals!”

Yes, that’ll show us knuckle-dragging normals that your institution can’t be reformed. Good to know. Now, your institution has to be destroyed.

The left is just waking up to the fact that we no longer respect their institutions. They thought they could feed like maggots off the corpse of the institutions they killed and gutted and wore like skin suits. But we noticed the institutions didn’t care about us, and we stopped caring about them. They thought we would default to deference forever. Nope. Now, our default is to blow it all up and their dream of a pinko utopia with it. Being insane can be fun in the sense that you’re totally free of any limits. You could do or say anything, and that’s kind of cool. But only for a little while. Only till you realize that other people aren’t required to go along with your nonsense. That’s how it was for the left. They thought they had free run of society. They thought there would never be any accountability. But now there is, and they don’t know what to do. They can’t change. They’ve walked themselves into a rhetorical box canyon and, even if they could get out, Liz Warren and the woke Comanches are waiting to take their scalps.

Oh, well. The failure of our enemies is our opportunity. We just have to make the most of it. Now, we Republicans are burdened by the fact that our party includes Republicans. But lately, we have been doing well by focusing on things that normal people understand. Dudes can’t get pregnant. Trump isn’t Hitler. And no, generals shouldn’t be fat.

Part II – Covering Up the Biggest Political Scandal in U.S. History

Conservative  Treehouse 

Friend of the Treehouse John Spiropoulos has put together a series of videos explaining how President Obama, FBI Director James Comey and CIA Director John Brennan constructed a coverup to hide their political surveillance operation. Today there are two video segments that deserve focus. 

RUMBLE Link ONE and Two.  YouTube Link ONE and Two

From the perspective of Obama, Comey and Brennan, expanding Hillary Clinton’s Trump-Russia collusion narrative was the key element to hide the activity of the administration prior to the November 2016 election.  That’s the motive for the FBI and CIA to collaborate on the agenda after the shocking outcome of the 2016 election result; but pay close attention to the activity of the primary “at risk” official, James Comey.

The December ’16 Joint Analysis Report (JAR), and the January ’17 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), were fabricated to enhance a spying coverup. Spiropoulos has taken the time to put the deconstruction of the ICA into a simple to follow video format.  Two parts below:

The next segment is below. Pay particular attention to the person who actually triggered the cancellation of the December 9, 2016, Presidential Daily Brief. It wasn’t Obama, it was James Comey.

From a risk management perspective, initially the surveillance and spying operation was a low-risk endeavor.  Obama held power and was going to hand off operations to Hillary. The Clinton administration would retain the officials who were doing the surveillance/spying, and no one would ever know.

Donald Trump was not expected to win the election.  When he did, all of the participants were suddenly at risk. President Obama and every member of his cabinet involved in the spying operations, then used Clinton’s “Russiagate” smear to cover up Obama’s “Spygate” activity.

The IRS was used to identify targets 2010 through 2012, until discovered in April ’12.  Suddenly, President Obama has a problem. President Obama then sends his Chief of Staff, Jack Lew, to run the IRS and block discoveries around the IRS weaponization.

From 2012 through April 2016, the Obama administration was spying on their political opposition using the FBI to conduct surveillance through their access to the NSA database.

In April 2016, NSA Admiral Mike Rogers was alerted by the NSA compliance officer who noted the uptick in database access activity by the FBI searching the Republican primary candidate field.

Post April 2016, the Obama administration had a problem. Enter FBI operation “Crossfire Hurricane,” July 2016, in an effort to remove the political risk.

October 2016, the FBI rushes a FISA application through the FISC, circumventing the missing ‘Woods File’, with the Chris Steele dossier as evidence.

October 2016, NSA Director Rogers sends the first official notification of the FBI using the NSA database to the oversight body, the FISA Court.

December 2016, worried about Trump now discovering the NSA database spying, the Obama administration wraps the Clinton smear into official policy, blaming the Russians and validating Crossfire Hurricane. That’s where the Intelligence Community Assessment becomes critical.

May 2017, needing to extend the coverup of the FBI activity, special counsel Robert Mueller then takes over Crossfire Hurricane. All FBI evidence and personnel transfers to Mueller.

April 2019, Robert Mueller operation wraps up, prior activity coverup shifts to Impeachment process.

July 2019, John Durham kicks in extending DOJ/FBI control through 2020 election.

Fall 2020, mail-in ballots triggered to facilitate 2020 election outcome.

January 2021, FBI triggers Operation Arctic Frost, targeting Trump supporters and 2020 election researchers. FBI again using NSA database search queries to identify targeting.

March 2021, FBI Arctic Frost results fed to J6 Committee and DHS. TSA trigger “Quiet Skies” targeting via results from Arctic Frost.

It’s one long continuum of coverup activity within Main Justice and the FBI, supported by all other various agencies who operate in support. What are they covering up? The 2012 through 2016 political spying operation within the Obama administration, as carried out by the same Main Justice and FBI operations.

Jim Banks Demands Census Bureau Fix Errors That Gave Dems 6 Extra Seats

‘It is crucial the Census Bureau take steps to ensure that the 2030 Census does not allocate political power to illegal aliens’

The  Federalist 

The U.S. Census Bureau admitted in 2022 that the results from the 2020 Census were flawed in 14 states, meaning the political infrastructure determined by the census — the Electoral College, congressional districts, and congressional seat apportionment — are built on inaccurate information. We are stuck using these faulty census results until the 2030 Census because, even if we had another census now, U.S. Code mandates that mid-decade census results “Shall not be used for apportionment of representatives in Congress … nor shall such information be used in prescribing congressional districts.”

Now Sen. Jim Banks, R-Ind., is pressing the Census Bureau to share information that will make it possible to review the accuracy of the 2020 Census and to assure an accurate count in 2030. Banks sent a letter Monday to Department of Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, urging an investigation into the errors.

In 2020, the census undercounted population in five mostly Republican states, Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, Texas, and one Democrat state, Illinois.

And the census overcounted in six Democrat states, Delaware, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Rhode Island, and in two Republican states, Utah and Ohio.

“In 2020, the Census Bureau made widespread errors,” Banks’ letter reads. “These errors happened for various reasons — but in part because the Census Bureau published census data using a new methodology that intentionally miscounted the population and masked demographic data. The methodology, differential privacy, injects noise into individual voting districts.”

Differential privacy is a method of collecting data that is supposed to protect privacy by adding random data into the mix so no one can be sure if the data they are looking at is accurate or the added fake data. From there, algorithms are applied that get the data in the ballpark, but never a precise count.

“As prepared by the Biden administration, the 2020 Census reports miscounted the population of fourteen states, wrongly allocating six congressional seats and Electoral College votes to the Democrat party,” the letter reads. “The reports may have also miscounted the population in a number of voting districts. And the reports definitively included illegal aliens without tracking those aliens’ citizenship status. If left uncorrected, these errors will continue diluting the political power of American citizens.”

The skewed results gave “disproportionate political power to Democrats and illegal aliens,” Banks said.

The clean data the Census Bureau collected, before it went through the differential privacy treatment, has not been made available, meaning no one knows how many voting districts are problematic.

“A file containing the original, unaltered census data exists, but only a few bureaucrats have access to it. It is crucial that the Census Bureau republishes the 2020 Census using the raw data,” Banks urges in his letter.

Before the 2020 census, the Trump administration requested citizenship status be included in the questions, but the request was challenged and the Supreme Court stopped the inclusion of that question. But, according to Banks’ letter, it was a procedural decision and did not address whether illegal aliens could be excluded from the census.  

“It is crucial that the Census Bureau take steps to ensure that the 2030 Census does not allocate political power to illegal aliens,” Banks wrote. “Counting illegal aliens as part of a state’s population means that states with more illegal aliens get more government funding and more voting power. States with sanctuary cities benefit the most.”

Adam Kincaid, president and executive director The American Redistricting Project, noted that the Electoral College is also affected by census results. Electoral College votes are determined by the total number of House and Senate seats a state has. For example, sparsely populated Wyoming has one representative seat and two senators for a total of three Electoral College votes.

“The United States Census is one of the most powerful things that the federal government does to allocate political power,” Kincaid told The Federalist. “We are living in a malapportioned country right now… The Electoral College should be about six seats, redder — six votes, redder than it is. And a proper apportionment likely means that Republicans this decade would be able to win the White House without winning a single Rust Belt state. So, we are electing the [Republican] president right now with a handicap of six votes.”

In his letter, Banks asks four questions and requested answers by Nov. 6. He asks if the Census Bureau intends to republish the 2020 Census results using unaltered data — before it was randomized — so states can understand apportionment and districting errors.

In light of the errors, he asks what the Department of Commerce and Census Bureau has done to correct the errors in the 2020 Census, and if they intend to use differential privacy methodology in 2030.

He also asks if the Census Bureau will ask the citizenship status of illegal aliens in the 2030 census.

David Ellison Purchases The Free Press for $150 Million, Appoints Bari Weiss Editor-in-Chief of CBS News

Conservative  Treehouse 

This is exactly as expected.  Larry Ellison now controls TikTok while his son David Ellison now controls Paramount/Skydance which is CBS.  To solidify the objective of TikTok, new algorithms will be implemented, while to solidify the objective of CBS, Bari Weiss is hired as Editor-in-Chief of news. [Paramount Announcement]

The Trump administration assisted both the purchase of TikTok by Larry Ellison, and the acquisition of Paramount by David Ellison.  CBS settled with President Trump for $16 million.  Paramount then purchases/acquires Bari Weiss online site The Free Press and moves Weiss to editor of CBS news, while President Trump triggers a tariff against Hollywood production movies not made in the USA.

L Ellison (Oracle, TikTok), Musk (X, SpaceX), Thiel (Palantir), Sacks (Crypto), Karp (Palantir) and D Ellison (CBS) are all well positioned to fundamentally change the way information is processed for public consumption.  CNN (Disney) is likely to be the final piece of the puzzle to be assembled.

David Ellison, Chairman and CEO of Paramount, a Skydance Corporation, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Bari and The Free Press to Paramount and CBS News. Bari is a proven champion of independent, principled journalism, and I am confident her entrepreneurial drive and editorial vision will invigorate CBS News. This move is part of Paramount’s bigger vision to modernize content and the way it connects – directly and passionately – to audiences around the world.” (LINK)

(VIA NEW YORK TIMES) –  […] In a move that is expected to shake up the broadcast news landscape, CBS’s owner, Paramount, said on Monday that it was buying The Free Press, an upstart digital news site founded just four years ago, and appointing Ms. Weiss, one of its founders, as the editor in chief of CBS News.

The purchase price was roughly $150 million in cash and Paramount stock, according to two people familiar with the terms who spoke on the condition of anonymity. The total amount will be paid out over time, and it may fluctuate depending on the price of Paramount’s stock.

The acquisition puts one of the country’s most traditional news institutions — the former home of Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite — under the editorial guidance of a journalist who rose to fame in part by critiquing old-line media institutions that she deemed timid and untrustworthy. Ms. Weiss is also a stalwart champion of Israel, and her site frequently lambastes the perceived excesses of the so-called woke left.

Ms. Weiss, 41, has never run a TV network, and in her role will have influence over hundreds of producers, anchors and reporters around the world. She will report to David Ellison, Paramount’s chief executive, and work alongside Tom Cibrowski, the president of CBS News. (read more)

Stephen Miller Outfoxes Reporter for Using Democrat Talking Points on ICE Deportations

RedState 

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller outfoxed a CNN reporter who tried to use Democrat talking points on illegal criminal deportations and the role of ICE.

Speaking to CNN's Boris Sanchez on Monday, Miller was asked about comments from Democrat Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, who accused President Trump of "attempting to inflame tensions and create a war zone" in Chicago by "profiling" what Pritzker said were "black and brown people."

Miller hit back at the reporter and said that the "Black people in Chicago are thrilled that we are getting the illegal aliens out of the community who are stealing their housing, jobs, and resources."

He slammed the efforts to block Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) actions to rid the city of illegal criminals after Chicago's Democrat Mayor Brandon Johnson declared ICE "No-go zones" on city properties.

"I ask you the question: what is the right term to describe a local official declaring a 'No-go zone' for ICE?" Miller said, turning the tables on the reporter. "Would you tolerate it for the FBI, ATF, or DEA? No, you would not."

"But there's an effort to delegitimize the core function of the federal government of enforcing our immigration laws and our sovereignty," he added. "It is domestic terrorism. It is an insurrection. And no amount of insane hyperventilating lies from Pritzker or Johnson or any other Democratic official will change our minds on that."

Sanchez then tried again to get Miller to answer if ICE was profiling and going after people of color, and Miller just laughed and called it a "dumb question."

"Oh, what a dumb question?" Miller said. "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, they're taking their health benefits away, they're taking their school slots away. And of course, in many cases, they're committing heinous crimes."

"We cannot have a system of law in this country that privileges illegal aliens over American citizens, and that's what they're doing," he added. "You know it, and I know it."

The reporter hit back and said, "So, that's not exactly a no, Stephen. Can you just unequivocally say…"

"I said it's a dumb question," Miller replied, though the reporter was not satisfied. "No, and it's a dumb question… I thought what I said was a dumb question; it meant no. My full answer is no, that is a lie, and it's a dumb question!"

It is truly insane that President Trump, his administration, and the Department of Homeland Security have had to deal with these kinds of lies and claims from not just Democrats but also members of the so-called legacy media.
