Right-wing podcaster Katie Miller was brutally mocked on Wednesday after she attacked the social media manager for the Democrats online. Miller lashed out at Paulina Mangubat, a 30-year-old who runs "The Democrats" account on X, after the account posted a nasty reply to one of Miller's husband's posts. Earlier in the day, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller claimed that the Democrats were running a "transgender" candidate in Texas, an allusion to candidate James Talarico. The Democrats account posted "shut up, you ugly f---" in response to Stephen Miller's claims. "She’s 30, unmarried, with no kids," Katie Miller wrote on X. "Put your name on it next time. This is what a sad, unhappy, female Liberal looks like. It’s why Pew reports 50% of them have been diagnosed with a mental condition." Political analysts and observers wasted no time clapping back at Katie Miller. "Ms. Miller, I wouldn’t get in a debate about looks here. That’s a losing effort for you and your Adonis-like husband. You’d be better off questioning Paulina’s non-use of a comma while accurately describing Stephen," Luis Moreno, a former U.S. ambassador, posted on X.

Host Audie Cornish noted Schilling's loaded rhetoric describing Talarico as a "leftist teacher." Seawright directly rebutted Schilling, arguing, "Conservative does not mean Christian" and "GOP does not mean 'God's only party.'"
