Capehart Unglued on Stephen Miller: ‘Behind the Killings’ of Protesters Renee Good, Alex Pretti
8th November 2026
The leftists are not feeling satisfied and charitable in victory. Rep. Hakeem Jeffries and MS NOW host Jonathan Capehart have united in virtually accusing Stephen Miller, President Trump’s new chief of staff, of murder.
Democrat Jeffries, the presumptive next Speaker of the House, made the most explosive charge. On X he wrote:
“Stephen Miller is a dangerous xenophobe and reckless extremist who has American blood on his hands. His presence in government should be eradicated like a malignant tumor.”
Jeffries gave himself a tiny fig leaf by limiting the eradication call to Miller’s “presence in government.” But pairing “American blood on his hands” with “eradicated like a malignant tumor” is not ordinary political criticism. It reads more like someone putting out a hit— not a call for bureaucratic reshuffling.
If a conservative had used this “eradicate the tumor” terminology and applied it to Jeffries or any other Democrat, the elitist media would erupt and see it as an appeal to violence.
