Katie Miller made a veiled threat to deport a political commentator during a heated debate about New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani on Thursday.

The wife of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller appeared on a panel of commentators on “Piers Morgan Uncensored.” While arguing with The Young Turks co-creator Cenk Uygur, the debate quickly turned ugly. The shouting match devolved into Miller questioning the validity of Uygur’s U.S. citizenship application.

Miller accused Uygur of “racist, bigoted rhetoric” around Israel and Uygur countered that Miller was a habitual liar. When Cenk floated the idea that Israel got a “pass” on committing genocide against Palestinians, Miller wondered if the Trump administration might need to take a closer look at his recently granted citizenship.

Miller cut in. “You better check your citizenship application and make sure everything is correct,” she said. “Because you’ll be just like Ilhan Omar.”

Why do people keep giving her air time?

Shouldn't you be busy stealing free housing from our troops?

Or fucking Elon Musk while the mayonnaise matador sobs and watches from the foot of the bed?

Why do people keep giving her air time?

Young Turks does progressive political advocacy. If she's going to do probably-politically-counterproductive stuff like this on air, I suppose I'd probably give her time too.

I think a better question is why Stephen Miller has his wife off doing interviews like this.

EDIT: Man, professionally, she's even done high-level communications, too.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katie_Miller

Miller served as a deputy press secretary under U.S. President Donald Trump at the United States Department of Homeland Security from 2017 to 2019. She was the communications director for Vice President Mike Pence from 2020 to 2021 and acted as his press secretary from 2019 to 2020.

Miller was an advisor and spokesperson for the Department of Government Efficiency from January to May 2025, when she departed DOGE to work for Elon Musk in the private sector.

Maybe I'd blame Stephen less and her more.

Can't wait for that page to say "cause of death: firing squad" once people get hungry enough

i would prefer "shot by catapult" in nearly all cases when i read about shooting. it's like not having your parachute open when skydiving. it's rather enjoyable before you realize the chute doesn't work, and your last moments can be doing something fun as hell. i mean, that's if you're at peace with yourself and the world. i imagine it being quite terrifying otherwise but hey, you reap what you sow (oh deer gods you reap what you sow)

Feel free to blame her more but don't blame him less.

This was on Piers Morgan, not TYT.

Man, professionally, she's even done high-level communications, too.

The qualifications for that under Trump seem to be competence in hair spray and make-up. So, it’s not like you should expect much from her.
