Stephen Miller Slams WH Press for Ignoring Biden's Decline

Miller's Fiery Defense of Presidential Authority

At a Thursday, February 20, White House press briefing, Stephen Miller took the opportunity to school reporters on presidential powers, addressing concerns about Elon Musk's role in government while criticizing the media's reluctance to cover former President Joe Biden's declining mental state. 
Miller also emphasized that the president is the only official elected by the entire nation and holds the power to appoint staff who execute his democratic mandate. He framed this as a fundamental aspect of the U.S. Constitution's Vesting Clause, which places executive authority solely in the hands of the president.
Here are three key points from Miller's remarks.

Calling Out the Bureaucratic 'Threat to Democracy'

Miller shifted his focus to what he believes is the real danger to democracy: unelected bureaucrats who act independently of the elected government, Fox News reported.
He called out officials within the FBI, EPA and DOJ, accusing them of obstructing President Donald Trump's agenda despite being lawfully obligated to implement it. According to Miller, these career government employees operate with impunity, resisting reform even when voters demand change. 
He argued that Trump's efforts to remove these bureaucrats were not anti-democratic but necessary steps to uphold the will of the American people.

Conservatives Applaud Miller's Pushback Against the Press

Miller's speech was met with praise from conservative figures on social media, who viewed it as a much-needed rebuke of the mainstream media. 
Comedian Tim Young lauded Miller for "torching the media" with his civics lesson, while National Review's Dan McLaughlin simply stated, "He's right, you know." 
Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs likened the speech to Schoolhouse Rock! for its straightforward breakdown of government function. Meanwhile, Senator Josh Hawley's communications director Abigail Jackson cheered Miller's direct callout of the press for avoiding discussions of Biden's competency.

A Rallying Cry for Trump's Government Overhaul

Miller concluded by reinforcing that Trump's mission is to replace bureaucrats who resist his lawful orders with individuals who respect the electoral process. This aligns with the administration's broader push to reshape the federal workforce and limit the influence of entrenched civil servants. 
Conservative journalist Ian Miles Cheong echoed this sentiment, stating that Miller's remarks "explain in very clear and concise terms" why Trump was elected to implement change. 
With Republicans rallying behind this message, Miller's defense of Trump's governance strategy signals a continued effort to challenge Washington's bureaucratic status quo.
