Stephen Miller, a key architect of Trump’s immigration policies, remains unfazed by criticism, expressing a secure ego and a large following. His legacy is tied to the “zero tolerance” border policy that led to thousands of children being separated from their parents, with many still not reunited. Despite the policy’s official end, family separations continue on a larger scale, affecting an estimated 145,000 U.S. citizen children whose parents have been detained or deported. This administration’s approach is noted for its increased speed and perceived callousness, lacking systematic measures to protect affected children.

Donald Trump is reportedly distancing himself from top adviser Stephen Miller following a series of controversial immigration proposals and rhetoric. Miller’s hardline stances, including advocating for daily ICE arrests and labeling a deceased protester as a “domestic terrorist,” have allegedly led the President to believe Miller “sometimes go[es] too far.” This shift is evidenced by a decline in ICE arrests and detentions, despite a staffing increase championed by Miller. While White House Communications Director Steven Cheung insists Trump “loves Stephen,” the president’s current focus appears to be on a more collaborative approach to immigration policy, with experienced figures like Tom Homan now reportedly taking a leading role.

Facing backlash for his promotion of violent tactics, Miller has reportedly shifted to more subtle methods, including seeking information on immigrants’ credit card usage as a potential means to restrict their financial activities.
