WASHINGTON — Stephen Miller was furious — again.
The architect of President Trump’s immigration agenda, Mr. Miller was presiding last month over a meeting in the White House Situation Room when he demanded to know why the administration officials gathered there were taking so long to carry out his plans.
A regulation to deny welfare benefits to immigrants — a change Mr. Miller repeatedly predicted would be “transformative” — was still plodding through the approval process after more than two years, he complained. So were the new rules that would overturn court-ordered protections for migrant children. They were still not finished, he added, berating Ronald D. Vitiello, the acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
“You ought to be working on this regulation all day every day,” he shouted, as recounted by two participants at the meeting. “It should be the first thought you have when you wake up. And it should be the last thought you have before you go to bed. And sometimes you shouldn’t go to bed.”
A few weeks after that meeting, the consequences of Mr. Miller’s frustration and the president he was channeling have played out in striking fashion.
Mr. Trump has withdrawn Mr. Vitiello’s nomination to permanently lead ICE and pushed out Kirstjen Nielsen, his homeland security secretary. The department’s acting deputy secretary, Claire Grady, and the Secret Service director, Randolph D. Alles, are departing as well. And the White House has made it clear that others, including L. Francis Cissna, the head of United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, and John Mitnick, the department’s general counsel, are likely to go soon.

Stephen Miller is just like us.
Enough with fake news already! NYT has negative credibility. Whatever they say one should just assume the opposite is true.
There are henchmen for the global cabal inside the Trump administration. Miller needs to BOOT their arses, and quickly.
Follow the money to CHEAP labor.
In other words, Trump is prevailing over all the obstacles.
Damn, it must be killing the NY Times to realize that
Denial of social benefits and employment would work better than any wall.
FIRE THEIR ASS!!
“Denial of social benefits and employment would work better than any wall.”
Yeah, and just how do you do that with our existing immigration laws and our current Marxist Judiciary? Once they are inside our country, they are NEVER GOING HOME! I mean twenty years ago or more, we allowed Salvadorans to come here on a “temporary” basis because of an earthquake in their country. Now, Trump says, time to go home, and these motherf*ckers “lawyer up” with claims that they “now have a life here” and can’t be deported. Better that we close the entire border completely! And with that closure, inform Mexico that all monetary remittances from the US to Mexico will be embargoed. When GM and Ford are faced with the closure of their assembly plants in Mexico because they can’t ship their finished cars and trucks into this country, things will end quickly at our border. When Mexico sees our “financial tit” is “closed” to them, they will help out and send the “migrants” back to where they came from.
Reading between the lines of the NYT you see why all the problems, phony establishment Rs throwing up phony roadblocks.
It’s been two years of this but they’re now losing and getting tossed
Amen!
Well, not really. I think he is a lot smarter and quicker on his feet than I am.
The solution is obvious. Mr. Trump needs to crank the firings up to 11.
(actually he should have hit the ground running and started doing this on 1/21/2017)
