I’m so happy this shit government is backtracking. Yeah, they haven’t changed. Yeah, they’ll try again.
But people do have the power and they should remember this.

They should refuse to back Stephen miller. Time to throw his whole ass under the bus. One of the most sinister influences in the mix right now. Dude is fascist to his core.

All those families and children from our communities that got disappeared and who are currently screaming and crying in detention camps and getting abused… that’s all Stephen Miller. Never forget that. He needs to go.

Leavitt is the press secretary for Trump, she didn’t refute anything Miller, Noem, Bovine, Bondi, et al have said, tweeted, or ordered regarding ICE instigations.
The people in America have seen the shit show they’ve created and aren’t buying the lies.
Crommach on
I think we need to not read too much into this “backtracking” by some facets of MAGA. Given their last behavior, it’s just damage control knowing that the media will latch onto the current narrative uncritically, until something else catches their attention. Then they’ll be right back at saying and doing terrible shit, full-throated and unabashed. They know our news media tends to report things like a stenographer, so they need to just say whatever they think people want to hear until something else captures national attention.
As much as I’d love to see Miller be taken out of play by being used as a quick fall guy despite being a core component of their agenda… I don’t see it happening.

I don’t like how this headline was written. It makes it sound like they are disagreeing with Stephen Miller, when actually, it’s more like “no comment.”

>On three different occasions, Leavitt, a spokesperson for the president, refused to defend Miller, who has pushed for aggressive immigration enforcement and argued against backing down in the face of criticism, going against others in the administration according to The Wall Street Journal. Instead, as criticism begins to mount from Republicans both nationally and inside Minnesota, ***the president appears to be trying to avoid any negative labeling of Pretti.*** Miller’s perspective may be losing support from the White House as it inspires a national backlash.
Leavitt “refused to comment” that is all.
Also, Trump already negatively labeled Alex Pretti as he did Renee Good!!🙄
AND, let’s not just criticize Miller!! The entire administration is just as rotten to the core!!
NumeralJoker on
I am telling you here and now, Miller is the single most dangerous man in government.
Moreso than Musk was. Equally as much as Thiel is to policy. Moreso than even Trump himself, I now believe.
Read and watch those if you haven’t already. Both definitely prove that most of what you’ve seen in the past 12 months has Miller’s hands in it, not that Trump doesn’t agree with him, but if you remove Miller from the levers of power, you likely will literally save lives. **He is basically the shadow President now, and everyone needs to say this to Trump’s face. He is very likely the origin who first suggested calling Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist, and you see him say it openly online.**

They aren’t really refusing to back him; they just refuse to answer any questions about his statements. This administration refuses to actually correct itself or apologize for any past misdeeds… and at this point, that mistake is being compounded frequently.

Do not give them any quarter. They were all in on one strategy and now they’re backing off because they’re saying it’s not working. They don’t have any regret.

There’s a false flag coming.
The sudden change of stance. It’ll last about a week before we see something that changes the game entirely and blows open the gates for the insurrection act.

This is all just covering their asses bullshit. They back Stephen Miller. They backed Stephen Miller to do everything up until this point. They didn’t have a change of heart, they just don’t like the narrative in the media.
Trump is the person behind every single piece of this. Do not let him throwing people under the bus absolve him. Trump killed Good and Pretti. Don’t let him pass the blame. Trump and Miller both need to be imprisoned for life without parole.
tom21g on
It’s poll numbers driving elected Republicans to push back hard against Noem and Miller and Bovino. Maybe not screaming publicly but backroom screaming.
But it’s not that they’ve all become humanized and sensitive and sorrowful, it’s bad poll numbers on the ICE Gestapo
whooo_me on
Whatever about any other arguments (Was Good moving her vehicle, dangerous? Why did Pretti have a gun? or even “why were they protesting?”) –
The fact that the Government immediately tarnished both victims with accusations of being paid protestors, domestic terrorists, that the victims were the ones attacking etc. is terrifying. They’re not even making the pretence of trying to find the truth, it’s straight up propaganda.

Is it real progress if the headline is “White House refuses to lie”? I guess the nonstop lying doesn’t deserve headlines anymore, but refusing to lie does. Pathetic.

During the first Trump presidency, how long did the administration last before he started turning and purging his staff? Do you all see this happening now? Also, I might be living under a rock, but this term, I have not see much reference to Melania, I can imagine she probably has a lot to say about what is going at home and across the World, but she has not said anything, I do not think that is.
