AOC hits Stephen Miller right where it hurts, and he can't take it





New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez laughed off top Trump henchman Stephen
Miller after he whined about her Monday night on Fox News.

Miller appeared for a friendly interview with right-wing hack Laura Ingraham,
during which the Fox News host asked him to respond to an Instagram video of
Ocasio-Cortez.

In the video, Ocasio-Cortez said Miller looked like “he is so mad that he is 4
[foot] 10 [inches tall] that he’s taking that anger out at any other population
possible.” She called on her supporters to “laugh at” authoritarians like
Miller as a way to undermine their power.

Miller smiled awkwardly as the clip played, then told Ingraham, “Well, we knew
that her brain didn’t work. Now we know her eyes don’t work.”

Even Ingraham didn’t laugh at the pained joke, but Miller soldiered on,
calling Ocasio-Cortez a “mess” and a “train wreck.”

Miller has been one of the most visible members of the second Trump
administration and has publicly advocated for Trump’s attacks on cities and
states led by Democrats. Miller has been railing against judges who have ruled
against the administration for violating federal law, falsely arguing that
following the law amounts to a “legal insurrection.”

Miller has also been trying to use the death of bigoted conservative activist
Charlie Kirk as the rallying cry to suppress left-of-center speech. He has
promoted a conspiracy theory of a “vast, domestic terror movement” organized
against the Trump administration, and he has announced his intention to use
agencies like the Department of Justice to oppose dissenting speech.

This is in addition to the widespread deportation actions the administration
is executing, which Miller has pushed for.

Those are the actions and rhetoric Ocasio-Cortez sought to undermine in her
Instagram video. She argued that mockery has historically been an effective
tactic against authoritarians and their culture of faux masculinity. Miller’s
decision to run to the safe space of Fox News to complain about the
congresswoman is a perfect validation of what she said.
