Stephen Miller: ICE’s ideologue-in-chief
Posted on: Jan 26, 2026 16:30 IST | Posted by: Cbc
monolithic anti-ICE protests in Minneapolis intensified o'er the weekend, in the backwash of the endorse fateful shooting of an American citizen involving federal law enforcement agents in the city this month. On Saturday, border patrol agents shot and killed Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a 37-year-old intensive care nurse.
Today, weâll be talking about Stephen Miller, Donald Trumpâs deputy chief of staff for policy, and how the deadly ICE surge in Minnesota is only the latest example of domestic policy that he has championed. In Trump's second administration, Miller is emerging as the main architect and enforcer of Trump's signature policies: from hardline immigration policies and mass deportations, to retaliation against the administration's perceived enemies, to increasingly aggressive foreign policy.
To talk about all that weâre joined by Michael Scherer. He is a staff writer at The Atlantic, where he covers American politics, and in particular the people behind it. He's the co-writer of a recent profile called "The Wrath of Stephen Miller."
And please note, we spoke to Michael before this latest shooting and its aftermath in Minneapolis.
