politics

Genuinely, that’s one of the most impressive examples of a serious journalist being an absolute fucking pitbull on a question, and as a result making the populist idiot spewing racist bile look like a complete imbecile, and laying bare the fact that he’s very obviously trying to push an agenda. Miller even fuckin pivots to MS-13 - an El Salvadoran gang (but all look same amirite /s) - because he realized he’s floundering, and reflexively reaches for more pathos of the “scary Latin people” conservative trope. Truly, this is an incredible interaction to watch. And the expressions of the people in the background are like “wow holy fuck lil’ fascist Stevie is getting OWNED”.

Whataboutism on display and a beautiful parry back to the question he asked everytime. That reporter should be commended for his tenacity.

Hats off to how professionally calm José María kept his voice on the follow up questions, making it clear that Miller was pretending to be outraged. A calm question after an angry rant meant Miller would start quiet again and have to dial his pretend rage back up. You could see Miller catch himself not being angry enough!

Fantastic!

Oh fuck, was that a journalist actually doing his job?

I almost forgot what that looks like.

It also beautifully displayed how fragile they are. Just push them a tiny bit and they go apoplectic that you don't just swallow their bullshit like their eager sycophants.

haha - what a dumb insecure little pathetic fuck of a nazi dipshit....

I love the reporter not letting it go so the little manchild is losing it.

Steven Miller is a mega-racist pile of hot garbage. I would expect no less.

Reporters just need to do exactly what this guy does... Press them on their "facts." I love it how badly Miller loses it.

Pee Wee German won't have a home after November

It is amazing to me that these assholes will say "thoughts and prayers" or completely deny that things happened when it comes to schoolchildren being murdered in their classrooms, but expect people to be filled with righteous anger when it comes to brown people entering the country. If school shootings are a "fact of life" in America, assuredly immigration is a "fact of life" here...and it is one that has the advantage of being beneficial to the country.

Another thing that irritates me is that these babbling gobs (and particularly this caricaturistic, flanderized bobble head) prevent actual debate around how immigration should function in this country...ensuring that we will continue to be told by the media that there are only two positions on immigration: become a country that nobody new can enter even as we dwindle in population and inventiveness, or have "open borders" that allow absolutely anyone into the country.

I know the reality is that the Democratic party has nuanced positions on asylum and immigration, but the straw man position the Republicans keep insisting Democrats have completely chokes the public discourse to death leaving us continually discussing the two "options", and thanks I fucking hate it.

Miller is literally a Nazie. Dude will say anything to kill, enslave, deport, or incarcerate anyone who does not fit his perfect all white Christian America. Anything he says by default is to be scrutinized and shouted down.

Venezuelan gang has taken over Colorado apartment complexes

This doesn't work like that.

In one of my home-towns, a small one, apartment complexes are 'managed' (owned and operated) by known-criminal organizations, and have been for a while. The oft-repeated rumours are this:

• one building is owned by an organization of Italian origin -- maybe 20 unit.
• two buildings across the street are run by triads -- 4 storeys, perhaps 80 units total
• no mob wants cops snooping around, so one keeps the cops at bay with a very firm, paternal hand on the residents and the building -- noise complaints, lights out, the occasional ruckus, and either this old man with an accent or his underling takes two very large 'witnesses' for quick investigation. The offender need not fear anything but abrupt eviction with no recourse at most as, again, the building doesn't want to be the target of investigations or similar unwanted attention.

Mob apartments are very well-run units, and ridiculously safe, in my limited experience.

If you can't pound the facts, pound the table...

What a little pissbaby

By the way, the "dictators will empty their prisons and send them to our borders" is projection. He's telling us exactly what he wants to (and very well might) do.

Buster really went off the deep end after arrested development ended

All that yelling, and his eyes remained dead the entire time.

Oh if only he had the power he craves, this journalist would be in a camp for making him feel uncomfortable. Nasty little angry fascist.

Awwww poor Baby Himmler had a bad day.

Lol fuck that guy

Miller got completely and thoroughly Harrised by that reporter

Now this is fucking journalism. Answer the damn question Steven, you walking Adderall pill

Even el Salvador has lowered it's crime rates by 60% but they did it by throwing every suspect in prison for life no trial or anything. So you just know there are innocent people sitting in that inhumane prison they built. So yeah you can lower a crime rate that much, but you're not gonna do it without stomping on human rights and the blood of innocents

Couldn't happen to a nicer goblin.

"THE CHILDREN WILL BE SAVED!"

Are most Republicans in the States so emotionally unstable and easy to manipulate, or is this guy an outlier?

I don't know what his professional role is, but if he's a public speaker he should probably be fired. That was embarrassing to watch.

He should have ended it with "So you have nothing but fearmongering and hyperbole to go off of. Got it."
