President-elect Donald Trump is expected to announce Stephen Miller as his deputy chief of staff for policy, multiple sources familiar confirmed to Fwrd Axis News.
Miller worked in the first Trump administration and played a key role in the immigration policies — including those that resulted in thousands of families being separated at the border.
Miller is expected to drive immigration policy along with Tom Homan, Trump’s former acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement director, will serve as “border czar”.
News of Miller’s appointment comes as Trump’s new administration begins to take shape. The president-elect announced Susan Wiles as his chief of staff last week and on Sunday confirmed Homan, his former acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement director, will serve as “border czar” in his administration.
After departing the Trump administration in 2021, Miller became the head of America First Legal, which took the Biden administration to court several times over immigration policy.
America First Legal was also among several groups supporting Project 2025, a controversial blue-print for a Republican presidency. While Trump distanced himself from Project 2025, he has so fare filled his cabinet with loyalists that are part of the Project 2025 movement.
Miller lied and denied any involvement with Project 2025.
“I have zero involvement with Project 2025. Zero. None. I made an advice video a long while back for students. I have no involvement with the project whatsoever,” he told ABC News back in July.
However, at Trump’s controversial Madison Square Garden rally last month, Miller made some scathing comments about immigrants.
“America is for Americans and Americans only,” he said.
