"Why are you yelling?” the reporter asked as Trump’s senior adviser refused to clarify the source of information he was spreading about Venezuela’s crime rate.
Trump senior adviser Stephen Miller had an on-camera meltdown after being asked by a journalist to back up questionable claims he was making about Venezuela’s crime rate, video of the episode posted to social media shows.
The four-minute video shows an emotional Miller yelling at NTN24 reporter José María del Pino on Tuesday after del Pino questioned Miller over his claims that Venezuela has become safer than the United States because its convicts are now all in the U.S.
Miller also repeated a since-debunked story that a Venezuelan gang has taken over Colorado apartment complexes.
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.
It makes me sick that these fuckers have forced me to hate other humans with such vitriol.
I don’t want this…
They hate people for existing, you hate people for their actions and harm done to others… These forms of hate are not the same.
Yeah but I don’t want to hate anybody.
That just means you’re normal

Refreshing like cracking open a cold one.
Hopefully the embarrassment will encourage him to follow his hero

Wikipedia about this sourceHats 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!
Good catch… Then he started getting actually angry, except not about whatever he was whinging about.
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.
Yeah, it’s very easy to set them off and make them lose it by just being consistent and not backing down or following their rambling.
This reporter showed exactly how every question put to them should be handled.
Whataboutism on display and a beautiful parry back to the question he asked everytime. That reporter should be commended for his tenacity.
Wait? You mean Trump and his gaggle of kleptocrats could have been easily defeated all along if the mainstream media were populated by actual journalists instead of agreeable sycophants who just nod their heads and continue manufacturing consent?
Everyday we’re not talking about Jan 6th because it’s not great for ratings is another day the media failed us.
Would rather watch him have a stroke.
Anyone have a video link that doesn’t go to that shithole twitter?
It doesn’t go to Twitter, it goes to an even worse shit hole called X.
A pile of shit is still a pile of shit no matter how many smiling faces you put on it. 💩

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”.
He is also making such a bs argument. Does anybody believe that Maduro lets out criminals in the hope that they will cross the Dorian gap to go to the US? That makes no sense. It’s much more likely that those criminals, once let out of prisons, remain in Venezuela.
Seeing his reaction to facts and logic is like watching a cartoon robot’s reaction to a logic bomb.
The worst part is the racist cult Miller is performing for will see the interview and ask why the reporter wasn’t as angry as Miller.
Eh. The actual answer to that question is “he’s genuinely good at and cares about his job as a journalist”. Simple as that.
That is an answer for reasonable people, and they already know.
You’re trying to apply logic and values as a reply to a comment saying that those values and logic don’t exist.
I cannot see this guy and not think of Riffraff from Rocky Horror. What an absolute ghoul.
The difference is that Richard O’Brien is a decent guy.
Buster really went off the deep end after arrested development ended
What do you mean after it ended?
Did you watch the last episode (Netflix, not the original) ?
It’s been a long time, can you give me a hand
Sure, Maybe you’ll get hooked again:
In case you actually needed a refresher:
(spoilers fot the ending of Arrested Developement, obv.)
I turns out that Buster killed Lucile (2).
If you can’t pound the facts, pound the table…
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.
Venezuelan gang has taken over Colorado apartment complexes
This doesn’t work like that.
In one of my small town, 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.
Had a drug dealer as neighbor, for about a decade. He wasn’t a low level dealer, dude was moving weight. Must have been distributor level.
While I wouldn’t want him as a friend, he was a good neighbor.
He kept his business to himself. Kept an eye on anything suspicious.
Visitors only would have their stereo up once. After that, you’d hear them turn it down when they got to the corner about a block away.
