Stephen Miller celebrates Trump’s ‘politically incorrect’ Iran war and lashes out at previously ‘woke’ Pentagon
The U.S. military under President Donald Trump is now free to fight wars without its hands tied behind its back, White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller has claimed.
Miller celebrated the joint US-Israeli strikes on Iran as “politically incorrect” and lashed out at what he called the “woke Pentagon” under previous administrations.
“What you're seeing right now … is a military under President Trump's leadership that is not fighting politically correct. That isn't fighting with its hands tied behind its back,” Miller said.
”One of the reasons why people lost faith in the military and the capacity to use that military to defend us is because we had a woke Pentagon. Because we had a military who at the very highest level – not the war-fighters – was forced to fight a less than full fight.”

In a previously unreported petition filed March 8 in Kings County Supreme Court that aims to unmask the alleged blackmailer, the Brooklyn resident is described as a “highly accomplished” soldier who has been “recognized with several awards” across “multiple deployments.“
“John Doe,” as the victim is being identified in the proceeding, was initially targeted last November while on FetLife, a site for members of the fetish community to connect. Users fall into some 600 different categories, FetLife tells visitors, listing such subsets as “Boot Slut,” “Fallen Angel,” “Rubberist,” and “Pig.”
Since then, several explicit selfies the veteran shared with the person – who posed as a woman but turned out to be a man ..
Kamala Harris blasts Trump’s leadership and claims ‘both parties have failed to hold the public’s trust’ in speech to DNC
Former Vice President Kamala Harris offered a rebuke to both Democrats and Republicans during a recent speech, delivering a warning that Americans feel betrayed by their political institutions.
During comments she made Friday to members of the Democratic National Committee, Harris warned that the American dream is dying — and that Democrats had a hand in its demise.
“We must be honest that for so many, the American dream has become more of a myth than reality,” she told the assembled Democrats.
She noted that the growing costs of food, housing, transportation and energy have sparked an affordability crisis. President Donald Trump and his administration have insisted there is no such thing, and messaging suggesting otherwise has been deemed by his camp as a “Democratic hoax.”
This isn't Harris's first time critiquing the nation's political institutions. Earlier this year, she told Stephen Colbert on CBS’s The Late Show that American politics are “broken.” She has offer..
