Stephen Miller dismantles CNN host Pam Bondi's arguments, defending executive authority against judicial overreach and rejecting the term "undocumented" in favor of "illegal alien." He highlights the Supreme Court's approval to end Biden-era parole programs for 532,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, while detailing plans to defund non-compliant sanctuary cities like Nashville. Miller also addresses a claim that an undocumented migrant threatened the president, insisting on removal regardless of alleged DHS framing. Ultimately, the segment underscores a fierce ideological clash over immigration enforcement and federal power. [Automatically generated summary]

Stephen Miller Obliterates CNN Anchor00:08:43
Stephen Miller just obliterated, obliterated a CNN anchor, if you can call her that, on the program this morning.
I got to show you this because he's got a certain magic about him.
I mean, he knows the law inside and out, and he is so unafraid and just willing to call it as he sees it.
Let's take a listen.
Do you think a judge should just rubber stamp what your White House does?
If not, what checks and balances do you think should be in place for this White House?
The president.
It is not the job of a district court judge to perform an individual green light or red light on every single policy that the president takes as the head of the executive branch.
Just think about the premise baked into your question, respectfully, Pam.
You're saying that when the American people elect a president of the United States of America, well, it's the implication, who is the sole head of the executive branch.
Well, let me finish.
I will answer the question happily.
But look, when you have these kinds of lazy assumptions built into questions, it makes it hard to have.
Constructive.
What is a lazy assumption?
I said you all had a win.
Meaning, you said, no, you said, is it my expectation?
I'm speaking in the same language.
You said, is it my expectation?
It's not just you, it's the whole media.
In other words, when you hear a sentence like.
It is a completely different question.
You say, Doug's going to be the president of the White House.
And I will gladly answer it.
When you say, do we think district court judges should rubber stamp each action?
There is a premise that is built into that that is absurd.
The president is the sole head of the executive branch.
He's the only officer in the entire government that's elected by the entire American people.
Democracy cannot function.
In fact, democracy does not exist at all.
If each action the president takes, foreign policy, diplomatic, military, national security, has to be individually approved by 700 district court judges, that's democracy.
So if there are 15 communist crazy judges on the court, that each of them as a team working together can block and freeze each and every executive action.
Right?
Then you get a problem.
And that's exactly what keeps coming up over and over again.
So this was a small-time judge, right, a lower court injunction that had stopped the administration from trying to get rid of this parole program for 532,000 people that somehow Biden just like waved a magic wand and said, come on in.
Do not forget, again, the U.S. Constitution, the supremacy laws in the U.S. Constitution, which, by the way, was challenged in 2012 out in Arizona over the exact issue of immigration.
And what was decided was that the federal government has full jurisdiction over who is in this country.
And so you can do sanctuary cities all you want, but you know what?
If the federal government decides to challenge it, as they are challenging it right now, it's game over.
That's when the feds win.
And so as a result of that, you now have the administration coming out DHS and saying, we got 30 cities, 30 cities that are all sanctuary cities.
And we're going to strip them of all federal funds because they are not cooperating with ICE.
They are not adhering to the law.
And so they will be defunded.
Why are federal taxpayers paying?
For the support of people who are here in the country illegally while federal taxpayers elected the president of the United States to get rid of all this stuff.
Here is, I'm telling you, it's like the Stephen Miller show today.
For goodness sakes, he's great.
I mean, he's always great, and he happened to do a lot of TV yesterday and today.
So let's listen in.
A goal of a minimum of 3,000 arrests for ICE every day, and President Trump is going to keep pushing to get that number up higher each and every day.
Every single day, so we can get all of the Biden illegals that were flooded into our country for four years out of our country.
And we can't take the risk of letting these Biden illegals roam around freely so the next American daughter can get raped, the next American kid can get murdered, the next American family can get splintered and torn apart by people that came into this country unchecked, uncontrolled, unbedded, uninvited by the American people.
As to the reconciliation bill, Sean, there's been so much said.
About how incredible the big, beautiful bill is.
The largest tax cut and reform in American history.
The most significant energy reform, unlocking American energy in American history.
Deregulation like we have never seen before.
The most significant, largest welfare reform in American history.
But the bill also includes the complete fulfillment of President Trump's campaign promises on every aspect of immigration and homeland security so that we can have permanently the safest, strongest, most secure immigration system.
in American history, Sean.
Wow.
So that was there on Hannity last night.
As I said, he's been on the airwaves.
He's very passionate about this issue.
You had four years to think about it, guys.
That was the problem, right?
You know what?
Y'all allowed him to fall back in.
And this is not the same administration that we saw before.
No way, Jose.
All right.
Nashville versus the feds.
Nashville, Tennessee, for some reason, is fighting this hard.
You get Freddie, Freddie O'Connell down there.
In Nashville, the mayor who said he's going to do everything he can to protect the migrants.
Again, I'm like, guys, you know, you keep trying that.
You're going to lose all your federal funding and you yourself may actually find yourself in federal prison because you're obstructing the law.
Supremacy clause, commerce clause, naturalization clause, you name it.
It's all over the Constitution.
So anyway, the feds did raid this construction site, construction site in Nashville, Tennessee today.
And this just came into us.
Apparently, there were some illegal migrants working there.
So they're doing business.
They're very, very serious about this.
And so they are going after the people there.
Now they have the Supreme Court allowing for them to deport people, 532,000 non-cities from the four countries, Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, that the previous administration, Joe Biden, was somehow given a green light to.
It's all coming as the representative from that area in Nashville, Tennessee, Representative Ogles, Andy Ogles, says he's launching an investigation into the mayor because they don't understand.
How it is that the mayor can be using federal funds to allow for all this illegal migration to continue.
I will always stand on the rule of law and with ICE.
And I don't just stand with ICE, I'll stand in front of ICE.
Because we, the people, have had enough.
I choose my community, my state, and my family over this type of nonsense.
Which is why, due to the remarks of Freddie O'Connell and the potential for aiding and embedding illegal immigration, The Homeland Security and the Judiciary Committees will be conducting an investigation into the mayor of Nashville, his conduct, and whether or not federal dollars have been used in criminal enterprise.
I will not back down.
I will not relent.
And I will always stand with law enforcement.
I want my community and I want my country back.
This is Andy Ogles.
Thank you for being here.
Just amazing.
Just amazing.
Andy Ogles, again, a pretty impressive, passionate commentary from him.
I just want to say thanks to Trace, one of our viewers here, for your generosity and for your kind words and importantly, for your service.
He is a Marine Corps vet.
Thank you so much for that.
And thank you for saying congratulations on 800,000.
I'm just blown away because we are one of the top, I mean, think of all the podcasts in the world, right?
Top 100 podcasts on all of YouTube.
So that is thanks to you guys.
I mean, we're beating out.
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
I think we beat Ben Shapiro, who I love.
But by the way, that's kind of an accomplishment because I think he has 8 million subs.
We only get 813,000.
So we're growing, growing, growing, and we're going to keep it up.
30 sanctuary cities going to be defunded by DHS.
DHS Defunds Thirty Sanctuary Cities00:03:56
And this is turning into a major ordeal.
Okay.
So impressive what we've seen thus far, if you would, from they call her Ice Barbie.
And that's meant to be derogatory, but I actually see it as a compliment.
Because she's so pretty Christy Nome i'm talking about.
I mean, she's so pretty that the joke is, people are like, oh wait, I just want to get I, I want to pretend i'm a migrant, get like arrested by Christy.
She's taking it on in a really really, really big way, Nashville, watch out.
New York City, watch out.
Boston, watch out, Los Angeles, watch out.
I can go on and on and on.
Um another big story that is in the news today, the liberal media report reporting that a migrant has been framed and that it is not fair because DHS, the Department OF Homeland Security, again, Christy Gnomes beat, they are coming out and saying that this illegal migrant threatened the life of the president and did so in a letter.
And so now they are going after this illegal migrant.
And they're saying this isn't fair, that actually he's being framed.
I want you to hear Miller's response.
I told you the Miller show today.
My goodness, it is Miller time.
All right, here he is.
I think this one's on CNN.
You get the CNN host.
Very inarticulately trying to defend here this migrant.
And he's like, I'm sorry, you had me at illegal.
Undocumented migrant sent a letter threatening to kill the president, promising to self deport after the assassination.
CNN reporting shows that investigators believe the migrant was set up, it was a victim of a setup.
What is the administration going to do now?
And this is an undocumented immigrant.
Note that, but this was someone who came forward, was a victim of a crime and now law enforcement believes he was set up.
Go ahead.
Well, I want to clarify what you mean.
So we're talking about the same thing.
Are you saying this?
This immigrant was here illegally?
Yes, but I am, and that's why I said that.
I clarified that.
You said undocumented and I wasn't clear what that means.
I'm assuming they have a fake ID.
I'm assuming they have a fake social security.
That's neither here nor there.
That's gain away from the question Steve, it.
I want.
I want this to be and call me naive a good faith discussion about What's happening right now.
When we use language that's designed to obscure the truth, that's not good faith.
Oh, it doesn't exist.
It's an illegal alien.
They're not an undocumented man.
Okay, that's fine.
That's another discussion we're having.
We will have another date.
I don't know the details of the assassination threat.
All I can say, based on what you're telling me, is there's an illegal alien in our country who's making menacing threats.
Regardless of the facts or circumstances, we don't want him here.
We're going to get to the bottom of it, and I would gladly come back on whatever the situation is.
They were set up, just to be clear.
But quickly, where is the legal alien?
I'm sure the legal alien was treated very unfairly.
Yes, where is the legal alien?
But I think his point is he's here illegally.
So if you're here illegally, you're here illegally.
Like it's kind of hard to get beyond that, right?
That's the elephant in the room.
This is what happened with the Garcia thing.
I mean, okay, so apparently he's wrongly deported, but you heard Miller on that one.
He's like, he's really not wrongly deported because he was deported because he was believed to be involved in a very serious criminal organization, MS. uh 13.
And so, as a result, you know what you're going to send them out like.
What do you expect us to do?
Roll over backwards and say, you know, we want to.
We want to do everything we can for you, to help you, to rehabilitate you, I guess.
I mean, why else was Biden saying 532 000 non-citizens from four countries could come into this country via this parole program, a parole program that now the Supreme Court is allowing the Trump administration to get rid of?
