Would You Let Stephen Miller Babysit Your Kids? -- Tom Sullivan [View all]

“Righteous fury” aimed at you-know-who


Donald Trump’s pet psychopath (and White House deputy chief of staff) spoke on Sunday in Glendale, Ariz. at the memorial service for slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Jim Stewartson of MindWar did not need much prompting to hear in Stephen Miller’s speech of “righteous fury” echoes of another delivered in Germany in 1932.

Miller spent much of his speech calling for victory in a war for western civilization against “our enemies,” “the forces of wickedness and evil.” He predicted a coming “storm” of backlash over “what you did to us.” Miller attacked an unidentified “you,” “they,” and “those” — the Other — three dozen times and let his audience fill in the blank.

“They cannot conceive of the army that they have arisen in all of us because we stand for what is good, what is virtuous, what is noble. And to those trying to incite violence against us, those trying to foment hatred against us, what do you have? You have nothing. You are nothing. You have wickeness. You are jealousy. You are envy. You are hatred.”

“We have beauty. We have light. We have goodness,” Miller continued. “We built the world we inhabit now, generation by generation,” he said, basking in the legacy of Greece and Rome.

Stewartson’s ears were burning:

Stephen Miller’s speech at Charlie Kirk’s memorial was essentially plagiarized. See if you can spot the similarities.

The Storm is Coming by Joseph Goebbels (1932)

“So our dead comrade Horst Wessel wrote, and we are fulfilling his prophesy. The others may lie, slander, and pour their scorn on us — their political days are numbered.”

“They promised you, workers, citizens and creative Germans, a Reich of freedom and beauty and dignity.”

“People, rise up, and storm, break loose!”

“You are the witnesses, the builders, the will-bearers of our idea and our worldview.”

“Well, we the people have awakened! We have risen against oppression, 15 million people have joined in an army of revenge.”

“You, men, women and comrades, are the bearers, witnesses, builders and finishers of this unique people’s uprising… We have served the truth, and only the truth. For twelve years, they have insulted and outlawed and slandered and persecuted us.”
