White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller unleashed his ire on the press corps, which gathered to hear him speak about President Donald Trump‘s 100th day in office, during a press briefing Thursday morning.
After touting the Trump administration’s record in office, Miller, standing next to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, spent roughly 20 minutes batting down press questions and chastising the media’s coverage of the president.
At times, the deputy chief of staff appeared to yell at the journalists listening to him speak.
In one notable moment, Miller slammed journalists for not reporting on Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro’s alleged work with Tren de Aragua to carry out assassination attempts. Instead, Miller blasted the media’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.
“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,” Miller said.
