Miller passionately defended the management&#8217;s record and criticized the media for its coverage of various issues. He reprimanded journalists for not addressing significant topics, such as allegations against Venezuelan President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro and issues of crime linked to immigration. Miller expressed frustration over the perceived negligence of the press regarding significant stories, stating that they are failing to inform the public about critical threats. The briefing showcased Miller&#8217;s combative nature toward the media, resulting in varied reactions from social media where conservative commentators praised his confrontational style, while critics condemned his approach as reminiscent of authoritarian tactics. Miller&#8217;s remarks underscored his influential role in the Trump administration, emphasizing the administration&#8217;s focus on American safety and sovereignty.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Stephen Miller sticks it to the press during 100-day victory lap<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2110625\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/section\/news\/white-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">White House<\/a>&nbsp;deputy chief of staff&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/stephen-miller\/\" target=\"_blank\">Stephen Miller<\/a>&nbsp;unleashed his ire on the press corps, which gathered to hear him speak about Pr<\/span>esident <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a>&lsquo;s 100th day in office, during a press briefing Thursday morning.<\/p>\n<p>After touting the Trump administration&rsquo;s record in office, Miller, standing next to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">spent roughly 20 minutes batting<\/a> down press questions and chastising the media&rsquo;s coverage of the president.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3397496\/elon-musk-doge-not-as-effective\/\">Elon Musk admits DOGE &#8216;not as effective as I like&#8217;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3397490\/watch-stephen-miller-karoline-leavitt-press-briefing-after-trump-100-days\/\">WATCH LIVE: Stephen Miller and Karoline Leavitt hold press briefing following Trump&#8217;s first 100 days<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3396820\/100-day-report-card-war-on-woke-trump-dei-efforts\/\">100-day&nbsp;report&nbsp;card: Trump makes good on pledge to restore &#8216;common sense&#8217; and kill DEI<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>At times, the deputy chief of staff appeared to yell at the journalists listening to him speak.<\/p>\n<p>In one notable moment, Miller slammed journalists for not reporting on Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro&rsquo;s alleged work with Tren de Aragua to carry out assassination attempts. Instead, Miller blasted the media&rsquo;s coverage of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland immigrant mistakenly deported to El Salvador, whom the White House has not returned to the United States.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;You may have seen recently an FBI assessment that was unclassified that says the Maduro regime is using and planning to use Tren de Aragua terrorists to carry out assassination plots on American soil,&rdquo; Miller said. &ldquo;Now, very few in this room covered that. I&rsquo;ll let you all ask yourselves why you didn&rsquo;t cover it, why your editor didn&rsquo;t assign that story to you, something you should think about on your own.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Miller also lambasted the press for not reporting on the murder of Jocelyn Nungaray, whose suspected killers were&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/immigration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">illegal immigrants<\/a> from Venezuela. In March, Trump debuted a surprise&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/executive-orders\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">executive order<\/a>&nbsp;honoring Nungaray <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3337419\/trump-executive-order-honoring-jocelyn-nungaray-joint-address\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">during his joint address<\/a> to Congress.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;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,&rdquo; Miller said. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;That is what the Biden administration&rsquo;s policy was. Most of your papers never covered her story when it happened,&rdquo; he continued as his voice rose in anger. &ldquo;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.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>Miller then slammed the press for living in homes, condos, and apartments that are &ldquo;far away&rdquo; from MS-13 gang members and other neighborhoods plagued by gangs. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;But yet you, with your coverage, are trying to force innocent Americans to have these people as their neighbors,&rdquo; Miller said. &ldquo;And then one day, their daughter may be abducted from their home and raped and murdered. So you&rsquo;re not going to get an ounce of sympathy from this administration or President Trump for the terrorists who invaded our homes and our country.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>When Miller was pressed about automakers&rsquo; warnings about increased prices and whether the administration would offer relief, Miller was dismissive.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The question, unfortunately, misses the entire point,&rdquo; he said,&rdquo; which is that U.S. automakers have announced dramatic investments and expansions inside the United States. American auto plants are growing. They are expanding. They are opening new facilities.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The antics from Miller delighted several MAGA conservatives on social media. <\/p>\n<p>Joey Mannarino, a GOP political commentator, praised Miller as &ldquo;an absolute BEAST!&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;He just completely destroyed the media,&rdquo; Mannarino said. &ldquo;This man is one of the best in the entire administration at articulating what AMERICA FIRST truly means!&rdquo;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Stephen Miller is an absolute BEAST!<\/p>\n<p>He just completely destroyed the media.<\/p>\n<p>This man is one of the best in the entire administration at articulating what AMERICA FIRST truly means!
