"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.
All that yelling, and his eyes remained dead the entire time.
A person’s eyes are a window into their soul.
The blinds are closed with this one. Maybe even boarded up.
But the kids! Think of the kids!
(No, not those kids)
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.
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”.
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.
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.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer goblin.
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.
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!
Good catch… Then he started getting actually angry, except not about whatever he was whinging about.
Hopefully the embarrassment will encourage him to follow his hero
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. 💩
Not a lot of smiling faces there these days, I reckon
Would rather watch him have a stroke.
Pee Wee German won’t have a home after November
holy shit Pee Wee German is an incredible nickname for that fascist scumbag.
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.
Awwww poor Baby Himmler had a bad day.
