'Stephen, let's calm down': Yelling Trump aide berates host as he loses cool live on CNN

White House aide Stephen Miller launched into a barrage of shouting aimed at CNN's Brianna Keilar Tuesday as she grilled him on cuts being made by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency and the sensitive information the billionaire's team might be accessing.

An animated Miller proclaimed, "You may assert there is no waste in the Pentagon. You may assert there is no waste in Treasury. You may assert there's no wasted in HHS."

Keilar tried to interrupt, "Stephen. Stephen, I don't think anyone — "

"Then why are you not celebrating these cuts?" Miller exploded, raising his voice to shouting level. "If you agree there is waste, if you agree there is abuse, if you agree there is corruption, why are you not celebrating the cuts, the reforms that are being instituted. Every day that no action is taken, the entire salaries of American workers that are taxed disappear forever!"

"Stephen, let's calm down," Keilar admonished. "We're not having a debate —"

"Well, you're clearly trying to debate me, and I will be as excited as I want to be about the fact that we are saving Americans billions of dollars, that we are ending the theft and waste and grift and corruption, that we are stopping American taxpayer dollars from subsidizing a rogue federal bureaucracy that has been relentlessly weaponized against the American people."

Keilar and Miller continued to argue over one another until Keilar finally said, "Stephen, I'm just asking — I wanted to get your position on some things. We're not taking a position here, we wanted to get some answers."

Miller shot back, "It doesn't sound to me like you are indifferent or unbiased on these questions, but thank you."

His response left Keilar visibly shocked. She responded by saying goodbye.
