'What the hell?' CNN conservative astounded by Stephen Miller's wild claims

Conservative commentator Jonah Goldberg had a sharp response Monday to White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller's unfounded claims that local and state police should "stand down" and "surrender" to ICE agents.

Goldberg was on a CNN panel responding to Miller's comments on X that alleged police in Minneapolis — where ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed mother Renee Good in her car this month — have allowed protesters to do whatever they want.

"First of all, on the Stephen Miller thing, I've read the Constitution a couple of times. Nowhere in there does it say that the White House deputy chief of staff can order local law enforcement in a sovereign state to do — I almost cursed — anything, and it's all not like maybe I missed some reporting that there has been some order or request made from federal authorities," Goldberg said.

Miller, the architect of the Trump administration's aggressive immigration policy, has argued that local law enforcement hasn't cooperated with federal law enforcement — a baseless statement.

"But like the president, never mind the White House chief of staff doesn't get to tell local law enforcement officers to lay down their weapons and surrender. I don't know what the hell that means," Goldberg added.
