'Who says affirmative action is dead!' Trump slammed as he gives Stephen Miller's wife job

Donald Trump on Sunday announced a position in his new administration for the wife of Stephen Miller, Trump's key adviser, and MAGA critics lashed out.

Trump over the weekend said that Stephen Miller's wife, Katie Miller "will soon be joining DOGE!"

"She has been a loyal supporter of mine for many years, and will bring her professional experience to Government Efficiency," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Katie is a deeply experienced communications professional respected by all. Congratulations to Stephen and Katie!"

Legal commentator Liz Dye said, "Miller's vile wife heading to DOGE."

"Who says affirmative action is dead!" Dye wrote Sunday.

Forbes investigative reporter Zach Everson noted that the Millers' wedding reception was at the Trump Hotel in D.C.

Policy professor Don Moynihan said, "Stephen Miller's wife, getting a job in a Department that does not exist."

"Very curious who is actually paying her, and if having formal employees will make it harder for DOGE to claim it is not in violation of the Federal Advisory Committee Act," Moynihan further added.
