White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller was booed and disrupted by protesters while speaking to National Guard members in Washington, D.C. on Thursday.
Miller was speaking with Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and National Guard Bureau Chief Gen. Nordhaus at Meridian Hill Park, where they were hosting a DC Safe & Beautiful Task Force Ceremony with about 200 National Guardsmen, according to CNN Pentagon reporter Haley Britzky.
Video footage captured Miller trying to speak over the sound of chanting and sirens.
The internet mocked Miller for the embarrassing moment.
"Incredible how this white supremacist is the worst possible example of white supremacy," writer and podcaster Hemant Mehta posted on X.
"Ha! Stephen Miller deserves it!" Political commentator Lucas Sanders wrote on X.
"I love this for Stephen Miller," journalist Aaron Rupar wrote on X.
"Temu Goebbels is at it again, this time in front of a DC public he swears are leftist criminals," political commentator Anna Baxter wrote on Bluesky.
