'Incapable of being honest': DC insider rips Trump official for 'performative hysteria'

President Donald Trump's deputy chief of staff for policy, Stephen Miller, got into a heated argument on Friday with political podcaster Jon Favreau, who served as an advisor to former President Barack Obama.

In response to a post by Favreau on the social platform X, Miller said, "Jon: your contribution to this world will have been shilling for an Administration that mass imported illegal alien rapists, terrorists and murderers to prey on innocent Americans. Are you incapable of remorse?"

Favreau responded to the Trump aide with a similar question. "Stephen: are you incapable of being honest?" he wrote.

"Stop defying the courts. Stop defying Trump judges. Stop violating the Constitution. Stop disappearing people to foreign prisons. Deport who you want by following the law. Your performative hysteria isn’t doing your boss any favors," Favreau continued.

The original post of Favero to which Miller had responded was a reaction to Miller's earlier post in which he accused "the corporate media" of "waging an information warfare campaign against deportation."

The Trump administration's recent deportations have been criticized and many legal experts say they don't follow due process.

"The top agenda item of the corrupt ruling class in this country is to nullify the election result and enshrine mass migration," Miller wrote in his post.

Several commentators have raised alarms over the Trump administration's refusal to comply with recent court orders regarding deportations.

Earlier this month, former United States attorney Joyce Vance said the Trump administration's wrongful deportation of a Maryland man to El Salvador isn't a foreign policy issue, where the president has some "latitude," but a violation of due process.

"The fight we are about to have is whether or not the president can strip people — citizens or not — of fundamental constitutional rights," she said during an appearance on MSNBC Wednesday.

Vance said the Trump administration has unwittingly put a face on its mass deportation, which is that of a dad of three kids with special needs, and who his wife wants back home for Easter celebrations in their own household. "That I think is not what this administration anticipated," she said.
