More than 80 members of Congress, 55 civil rights groups, three Democratic presidential candidates and one conservative columnist are among those demanding that the White House senior adviser Stephen Miller resign, or be fired, in the wake of a leaked email scandal.

The communications had revealed the top aide’s obsessive focus on injecting white nationalist-style talking points on immigration, race and crime into the far-right website Breitbart, both during and after Donald Trump’s successful bid for the White House.

In the past week, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has released multiple reports showing Miller promoted racist fears, disseminated conspiracy theories and injected a white nationalist agenda into the website Breitbart News.

leaked emails when one has seen and heard this idiot's / scumbag's racist and white nationalist views all through rump's administration thus far. Remove rump and you'll remove this scumbag too.

he'll be out w/ the 2020 election results (overwhelming landslide on kicking his a&& out) or he'll medical leave out/resign, because his body is screwed up so badly because of him.

I doubt that his views were completely unknown

This is, once again, a case of exposure

If they somehow haven't been exposed to his vile sribblings as yet, which is rather hard to imagine. The whole Trump movement has revealed and outted a lot of folks many of us thought to be alright people up until now.

Many people know shorty Putin is a murderering, thieving dictator but they frequently forget that he is also an avid racist. Monkey is routinely yelled out as an insult against black folks in Putin country. Jewish folks are of course persona non gratis and then they also have a slew of non Russian racist opinions that shorty constantly reinforces.

This whoring, thieving dictator is trying to turn the US into the racist Slav loving hateful country he has turned Russia into.

Like never attacking Venezuela, Putin won't let Trumpy Dumpy fire Miller.

Then, why does anyone expect it to work this time?
