Stephen Miller, one of President Donald Trump's top White House aides, melted down on Monday after the administration suffered a series of stinging defeats. On Monday, a federal judge in Washington, D.C. ruled that the Trump administration's Department of Homeland Security had illegally created a new voter verification database using the private information of millions of Americans to facilitate voter surveillance. Another federal judge in Minnesota squashed the Trump administration's efforts to investigate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, a Democrat, and several top state officials over social benefits fraud. The Minnesota judge found that the investigation arose in retaliation for the officials not going along with the Trump administration's immigration enforcement agenda. "A huge amount of the 'system' is just entrenched power constantly vying to make America a refugee dumping ground at any cost," Miller wrote on X in response to a post about the ruling in Minnesota. The Trump administration has sought to use the Department of Justice to exact revenge against its perceived enemies. For instance, the DOJ has launched investigations into former FBI Director James Comey for allegedly lying to Congress. Comey led the Crossfire Hurricane investigation into the ties between Trump's 2016 campaign and the Russian government. Multiple other officials who have investigated Trump or resisted his demands have also been investigated. Miller raged that rulings like the one issued in Washington, D.C., by Judge Sparkle Sooknanan seem to betray the Founders' intent, in his eyes. "Judge Sparkle decrees that America belongs to any random alien on planet earth, just like our founders intended," Miller posted on X.
