Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota minces no words in her calling out Stephen Miller. Doubting she will face any backlash from House Democrats .
" The fact that he has influence on policy and political appointments is an outrage."

Rep. Omar speaks the truth on this. Watch this space for Trump to tweet his nastiness about her.

Miller isn't even the only prominent Jewish white supremecist today. He shares that company with Milo Yiannopoulos, for example.

(16,079 posts)He hates all people of color...his hatred began back in middle school...it's not something new! He's been a racist POS for a long time!
He's friends with Richard Spencer, they met while they both attended Duke University...Miller believes that people of color are lying about the existence of racism...he believes that there is no racism, only that people of color use that claim to get free stuff!!!
The man is white, he's a nationalist...that equals White Nationalist!
Miller is the kind of Jew who makes the lists of those being transported to the camps, and he makes sure his name isn't on that list...that's the kind of Jew he is!!!
Look up these two groups:
Żagiew ("The Torch", Die Fackel), also known as Żydowska Gwardia Wolności (the "Jewish Freedom Guard" , was a Nazi-collaborationist Jewish agent provocateur group in Nazi German-occupied Poland, founded and sponsored by the Germans and led by Abraham Gancwajch.
The Group Thirteen network (Polish: Trzynastka, Yiddish: דאָס דרײַצענטל was a Jewish collaborationist organisation in the Warsaw Ghetto during the German occupation of Poland in World War II.

(11,738 posts)Nor is the definition of White.
You can Jewish is not a race. It is a religious and cultural designation. The persecution of Jews has been historically linked, not to the color of their skin but to their religion and culture. You can have that heritage but reject it and still promote White Nationalism and the type of fascistic ideology of the Nazi movement.
Is seems you are being influenced be a typical alt-right defense in that the Nazis were only the Nationalist Socialist Worker's Party from the 1930's to the mid 1940's. The reality is if it acts like a Nazi/White Supremacist and promotes ideology of such, then it is that.

(16,785 posts)But also open eyes as to what the TRUE intentions are of the Trump Administration. Stephen Miller is a stain on everything America stands for.
The more voices that are heard, the likelihood that Trump will lose in 2020. We cannot tolerate the hatred that dominated Germany in the 1930's by a man who blamed a specific group of people for the ills that befell Germany since WWI.
Hekate
(90,690 posts)The congresswoman could be as quiet as a mouse and still be hated and harassed. Trump would still punch down at her and encourage others to kill her.
As an example: when Katy Tur was assigned to Trump's campaign, he spotted her and started calling her out to his mob, time after time. "There she is. Little Katy Tur. Fake news." Never forget that one night the Secret Service was concerned enough for her safety to voluntarily escort her to her car after the rally.
Trump is calling out the mob again. Ilhan Omar is all things he hates, starting with being a female who speaks out. She might as well fight back.

(6,177 posts)Only white supremacists.
America has ALWAYS been a multi-racial, multi-cultural, multi-religious nation.
It has NEVER been a white nation.
True American nationalists understand and embrace this.
White supremacists do not have a nationalistic view. Their view is based on the unfounded belief that white people are somehow better than other people.
History does not support this belief.
It is at best misguided, and at worst demonic.

(24,368 posts)What astounds me is the utter racism, bigotry and hatred that asshole has for ANYONE that doesn't have white skin has actually become policy.
A douchebag, asshole racist is bending the presidents ear and has been instrumental in the family separation policies as well as every other cruel thing we are doing to those seeking asylum.
I hope when this administration is on the ash heap of history, Miller can't find a job AT ALL. Let him enjoy his nice West Wing office and his rides on Marine 1 and AF 1 while he can. I hope he's homeless and struggling in 5 years.
If there is any justice in this world, he'll be brought before the court at the Hague on charges of crimes against humanity.

Stephen Miller, a senior adviser to US President Donald Trump, was likened to a Nazi by a White House adviser, according to a report Wednesday in Vanity Fair.
Stephen actually enjoys seeing those pictures at the border, the outside adviser told the magazine. Hes a twisted guy, the way he was raised and picked on. Theres always been a way hes gone about this. Hes Waffen-SS ...
Miller grew up in a liberal Jewish family in Santa Monica, California, where even as a high school student he gained a reputation for relishing policies that irked the left. Following his studies at Duke University, her served as an aide to then-Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota and later with Jeff Sessions, the Alabama senator who is now attorney general.
An uncle, David Glosser, posted Sunday on Facebook: With all familial affection I wish Stephen career success and personal happiness, however I cannot endorse his political preferences ...

... Miller has also faced widespread condemnation from the US Jewish community, most notably from his childhood rabbi.
Honestly, Mr Miller, youve set back the Jewish contribution to making the world spiritually whole through your arbitrary division of these desperate people, Rabbi Neil Comess-Daniels said in his address for the Jewish new year. The actions that you now encourage President Trump to take make it obvious to me that you didnt get my, or our, Jewish message.
Comess-Daniels made his comments at the Beth Shir Shalom congregation, which Miller attended with his family in 1999-2003.

Went into store the other day, small mom and pop store, the Latina woman told me she fears for her life because of rump.

(838 posts)...I'm frightened. For my Latina wife. For our special needs kids. For my trans friend who served his country as a woman in the Army and is now in danger of losing his benefits. For every LGBTQ+/POC/alternative lifestyle/religious minority person that are part of my family of choice.
And yes I'm afraid for myself for myself as a white man because I dare to stand with them. I'm scared shitless. But there is no way to remain neutral. America is, in my opinion, heading toward civil war. Call it doom and gloom, I don't care. It's what it feels like. And if this trump is anything less than breathtakingly thrashed in the 2020 election, he's not leaving the White House quietly.
They're coming for all of us.

Miller, who is responsible for implementing President Trumps hardline immigration policies, has repeatedly been praised by white nationalist leaders. Millers uncle, David Glosser, told HuffPost last year that he thinks his nephew views other ethnicities as unworthy or inherently unsuited to life in America ...
