Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee melted down Sunday in defense of a top White House official, who Rep. Illhan Omar (D-MN) compared to “Nazis” earlier on CBS News.
Omar was asked to comment on a recent social media post made by White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller in which he warned that “migrants and their descendants recreate the conditions, and terrors, of their broken homelands.”
“When I think about Stephen Miller and his white supremacist rhetoric, it reminds me of the way the Nazis described Jewish people in Germany,” Omar said.
Her comments, a video of which was shared on social media, quickly drew the attention of the official X account for the House Judiciary Committee’s GOP coalition
“Stephen Miller is Jewish,” reads the post from the House Judiciary Committee’s GOP coalition. “This is vile.”
Miller has made a number of other controversial statements that critics have labeled as racist or xenophobic, with a resolution even being filed in Congress labeling Miller as a “white nationalist.”
Miller’s wife, Katie Miller, has leaned into her Jewish faith when deflecting criticism of her husband, perhaps most notably during an explosive recent appearance on journalist Piers Morgan’s show.
During the episode, political commentator Cenk Uygur criticized Miller, saying that it was “very normal for a Miller to be completely and utterly lying.” Katie Miller immediately conflated being called a liar with an antisemitic attack, calling it “racist bigoted rhetoric.”
After Uygur called Katie Miller a “weirdo” for invoking her children and her Jewish faith, which he argued had no relevance to his criticism, Katie Miller subtly threatened to have Uygur – a naturalized U.S. citizen from Turkey – deported.
