Stephen Miller said that Governor J.B. Pritzker could be arrested for engaging in a “criminal conspiracy.”
When asked by Fox host Will Cain on Friday under what authority a governor could potentially be arrested, the White House Deputy Chief of Staff said that the Department of Justice “has made clear that if officials cross that line into obstruction, into criminal conspiracy against the United States or against ICE officers, then they will face justice.”
Miller’s statement comes after President Donald Trump claimed that Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Pritzker should be “in jail for failing to protect ICE officers.”
On Oct. 23, the Illinois governor signed an executive order establishing the “Illinois Accountability Commission,” which will track “abuses” and hold Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents “accountable” following the Department of Homeland Security’s launch of “Operation Midway Blitz” in Chicago.
Calling it now, this dude will be the first to flee to Argentina.
That’s actually a really good bet, when Trump inevitably dies, all of Miller’s protection also dies. Right now Miller is essentially the most powerful man in the world because he’s exceedingly good at being Trump’s personal little Wormtongue. Trump is checked-out and bored with life in general, he only wants adoration and golf, so he’s basically letting Miller and a few other close “advisors” make all the calls.
Miller thinks he’s going to take over for Trump, he thinks he’s going to retain power and be the Wormtongue for Vance, he thinks he can sustain the momentum and that Trump’s base will like him and follow him.
I look forward to the rude awakening. He is so hated that I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the right suddenly digs up dirt on him the moment Trump is out of the picture and can’t pardon him. (I mean, some serious allegations that will actually get someone canceled from power - like messing with rich people’s money in some way.)
Why would he need to flee to Argentina? He’s winning.
Because Trump won’t live forever and few of the factions pulling Trump’s strings likes him.
Reagan didn’t live forever and we’re still sucking from the sewage hose of his politics 40 years down the line. Dick Cheney and Bill Kristol didn’t flee the country when Bill Clinton took office.
He’s very close with a certain selection of billionaire Zionists (Larry Ellison, notably). And his wife is straight up fucking Elon Musk. He’ll be fine.
If winning means being criminals and losers… then sure, he’s winning. People like him end up with their heads on a pike.
