Following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller announced the Trump administration’s intention to “dismantle” the organized left using state power, citing Kirk’s last message. Miller vowed to target unspecified left-wing groups and individuals, potentially using RICO and terrorism charges, and said that those “spreading this evil hate” would face exile. Trump also blamed the shooting on the “radical left,” suggesting a broad crackdown on anyone expressing harsh words for right-wing figures. Despite the rhetoric, data indicates that right-leaning attackers commit more violent acts than those on the left.

Stephen Miller delivered a scathing, authoritarian-style speech targeting demonstrators protesting President Trump’s actions, labeling them as “Communists” and threatening a further military response. This move, however, is likely a display of weakness, despite the presence of military officials during the address. Polls indicate significant voter opposition to Trump’s actions, suggesting Miller’s hubris has become a key vulnerability. According to New Republic staff writer Monica Potts, Trump is actively consolidating power, and the opposition should recognize the lack of public support for his agenda.

On Wednesday, Vice President J.D. Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller faced a hostile reception at Washington, D.C.’s Union Station, where National Guard troops were stationed as part of President Trump’s crime crackdown. The trio was met with hecklers who voiced opposition to the administration’s policies, including chants of “Free DC” and protests about the war in Gaza. Despite the protests, the officials entered a Shake Shack restaurant, where Vance mingled with service members and spoke about the administration’s commitment to addressing crime. Miller dismissed the protesters as “stupid white hippies”, further inflaming the situation.

In response to rising concerns about crime, former President Trump has ordered an increased presence of federal law enforcement officers in Washington, D.C. The operation, which will begin with a seven-day focus, is intended to address what the White House sees as a city plagued by violent crime, with some officials making comparisons to dangerous areas globally. This move comes after an attack on a former government staffer, and follows Trump’s threats to federalize the capital. Although the MPD reported a decrease in crime, the federal operation, which will also include support from the D.C. National Guard, FBI, Marshals, ICE, Secret Service and the Department of Homeland Security, is set to focus on tourist areas and other busy hotspots.

Air Marshals moved to Deportation Duty, that’s the new reality we’re facing, apparently. The whole thing just feels… off, doesn’t it? Like a bad remix of a familiar song, where the rhythm is just a bit… wrong. The news is filled with these stories, and you start to wonder what’s really happening and why.
It seems that the Air Marshal National Council, the group representing the rank-and-file marshals, has already sent a cease-and-desist letter to both the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). Their argument is that these new assignments could potentially be contract fraud, while also placing personnel in unsafe or even inappropriate working conditions.… Continue reading

Following criticism of a ruling by Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong regarding ICE arrests in Los Angeles, an X account associated with California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Press Office responded to Stephen Miller’s post.

The initial post by Miller condemned the ruling and accused the judge of undermining the United States. Newsom’s Director of Communications, Izzy Gardon, later stated that the post was inspired by the White House’s use of the term.

Adam Boyd, a 33-year-old attorney, resigned from ICE, citing a shift in focus from national security to deportation numbers. Boyd reported that this change was due to pressure from the White House, specifically Stephen Miller, who set a daily arrest quota. He claims that ICE attorneys are dismissing legitimate cases to increase deportation statistics, which he says is at the expense of due process.
