The i Paper: Stephen Miller is Trump’s Rottweiler. Now he wants to dismantle the Democrats
The deputy chief of staff’s power at the White House appears to know no bounds, and his voice is one of the most influential in the President’s ear
If civil war begins in the US – and with Donald Trump’s commitment to deploying troops on the country’s streets, there is every possibility that it might – Stephen Miller will probably view it as his own personal, signature achievement.
No figure in Trump’s inner circle exhibits more zealotry than Miller – the White House deputy chief of staff for policy – about the revolutionary ambitions of the “Make America Great Again” movement. Nor more of a willingness to lay waste the country’s constitutional guardrails in an effort to supercharge the President’s powers, disregard Congress, and ignore court rulings that fail to go the administration’s way.
Last week, even Trump acknowledged the extremism of the Rottweiler in his midst.

San Francisco Chronicle: Protest of Bay Area immigration crackdown met with apparent stun grenades at Coast Guard base
During the fracas at the Coast Guard base, federal agents deployed apparent flash-bang grenades to disperse the crowd and fired a pepper round that struck a clergyman near the chin. The impact caked his face and clothing in orange powder.
The Rev. Jorge Bautista, pastor of the College Heights United Church of Christ in San Mateo, said an agent shot him in the face with the projectile from about 5 feet away.
“I’m in a lot of pain,” Bautista texted the Chronicle from an emergency room in Oakland. “He clearly was aiming for the face.”

Independent: Trump’s ‘election integrity’ chief claimed president has future powers to declare voting emergency
Heather Honey’s statements follow president’s aggressive effort to radically reshape elections before 2026
Trump says FBI and Tulsi Gabbard ‘working on’ elections plan as he repeats bogus claims
It was clear from the outset that Donald Trump’s administration would include high-ranking government officials who either endorsed his false claim that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him, or refused to publicly admit he lost.
The president continues to hammer a baseless narrative that the election was rigged against him, vowing publicly that it must never “happen again” as he deploys officials to prepare for midterm elections with the balance of power in Congress — and his agenda — at stake.
Before she was tapped as Trump’s “election integrity” official at the Department of Homeland Security, Heather Honey reportedly told a group of right-wing activists in March that the president could declare a “national emergency” to effectively take control of local election administration.
She said the move would follow an “actual investigation” of the 2020 election, if it revealed “manipulation” of the results, according to The New York Times, which had a recording of the call.
“We have some additional powers that don’t exist right now,” she said. “[W]e can take these other steps without Congress and we can mandate that states do things and so on.”
