Miller Tells WH Reporters: You All Choose To Live As Far From These Gang Bangers As You Possibly Can

Tim Hains – White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller told reporters during a briefing Thursday morning: “You all choose to live in condos or homes or houses as far away from these kinds of gang bangers as you possibly can… And yet you, with your coverage, are trying to force innocent Americans to have these people as their neighbors.”

STEPHEN MILLER: We talk about due process. The Biden administration made the decision to give extensive due process to two Tren de Aragua terrorists who were apprehended at the border just a couple of years ago. Two gentlemen from Venezuela, members of Tren de Aragua.

The Biden administration’s border patrol apprehended them and made the decision to provide them with extensive “due process,” put them on a program of supervised release, and put them on ankle monitors. So they could go through a lengthy, judicial, legal determination as to whether these illegal aliens, who just set foot on U.S. soil, might want to live in the U.S. for the rest of their lives.

What was the result of that decision? What was the result of that choice?

Those two men kidnapped a young girl named Jocelyn Nungaray from her family. They beat her. They sexually assaulted her. They tortured her. They stripped her. They murdered her, and they dumped her body.

That is what the Biden administration’s policy was.

Most of your papers never covered her story when it happened. To the extent that you covered it at all, it was because President Trump forced you to cover it by highlighting it repeatedly over and over again. He had to shame you into covering it!

Each and every one of you decides, over and over again, these MS-13 terrorists, to the extent you have the financial means to do so, you all choose to live in condos or homes or houses as far away from these kinds of gang bangers as you possibly can.

If I offered any one of you a rent-free home, no taxes, in any of these gang neighborhoods, and told you your neighbors are MS-13 terrorists, or Mexican mafia, or Tren de Aragua, I couldn’t pay you to live there. And yet you, with your coverage, are trying to force innocent Americans to have these people as their neighbors. And then, one day their daughter may be abducted from their home and raped and murdered!

So you’re not going to get an ounce of sympathy from this administration or President Trump for the terrorists who’ve invaded our homes and our country.
