White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller joined Fox News Monday and ripped former FBI General Counsel Andrew Weissman as a “degenerate” who “should never be on TV anywhere.”
During a hit on the network from the White House, Miller called Weissman a “moron” who should “never be on TV anywhere.”
Miller reacted to comments Weissman made on MSNBC Sunday blasting President Donald Trump’s invocation of the Alien Enemies Act of 1798. Trump’s use of the 18th Century law to deport Venezuelan gang members faced a quick legal challenge by attorneys with the ACLU and was paused by a federal judge.
Hundreds of alleged members of the Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua were in transit to El Salvador when US District Court Judge James Boasberg ordered their return.
Weissman told MSNBC’s Michael Steele Sunday that Trump could not cite the Alien Enemies Act to deport gang members from Venezuela because the US is not at war with the gang or the country of its origin.
“There is no invasion that is going on,” Weissman said while arguing Trump’s deportation strategy is unconstitutional. “You also have to show that the people you’re removing are actually part of that gang.”
Trump has designated Tren de Aragua a foreign terror group.
Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum aired a clip of Weissman’s comments for Miller Monday afternoon and asked him for his reaction. Miller laid into the MSNBC legal analyst:
Andrew Weissman is an absolute moron. He is a moron, and he is a fool, and he’s a degenerate. Andrew Weissman has devoted his career to putting innocent Americans in jail, taking away their civil liberties. He was involved in the Mueller coup against a democratically elected president, Donald J. Trump. Weissman should never be on TV anywhere. He should hang his head in eternal shame for what he’s done to this country. And now he’s up there shilling for people who rape and murder Americans. That’s who Andrew Weissman is.
Miller later said, “I will defend American lives working for President Trump, and Andrew Weissman can defend illegal alien rapists, terrorists, and predators.”
Watch on Fox News.
