Attorney Avenatti pounds ‘fascist’ Stephen Miller for writing immigrant child detention policy — and vows legal action

Michael Avenatti, the attorney for adult film star Stormy Daniels, took to Twitter on Sunday morning to offer the services of his law firm to help the families who have been ripped apart by the immigration policies of President Donald Trump’s administration, resulting in children being held separately in detention camps.

Along the way, he took a shot at Trump policy adviser Stephen Miller, who bragged about being behind the detentions.

Avenatti, who later called into AM Joy on MSNBC to expand on his plans, tweeted: “If anyone knows of a parent that has had their child taken from them at the border and not returned, please have them contact me as I am entering this fight. This outrageous conduct must be brought to an immediate end. #Basta”

He later took his shot at Miller.

“Stephen Miller: Congrats, the separation policy that you sold to your boss Mr. Trump will result in images that will crater you both. We will ensure you will never escape them. In your fascist zeal, you forgot that mothers are mothers first, regardless of their politics. #Basta,” he wrote.

Do not refer to Donald Trump as Mr. President. He does not deserve the respect nor the recognition of such a title.

That title befits Trump's predecessors only.

Good on Michael Avenatti.

And trump and the gop are going to have to wear this stink from their policy forever. Everywhere they go people should confront them all for what they've done to these little children. Their policies also says intent, cutting their food programs, cutting their health care, and destroying the EPA which many will be seeing harmful consequences from doing that. Trump and the gop are abusive to children. This is going to make it a sure bet these people will lose both the House and the Senate in Nov. .

I’ve been waiting for it because nothing brings it home like a photograph of a terrified toddler to this crime against humanity.

This is the photograph that will sink Trump, Sessions and the entire Republican Party. This photo needs to be used by the Democrats to win the elections.

Miller will be sent scurrying off with his tail between his legs. He is nothing but a 30 yr old punk.

No pussyfooting, no both sides do it bullshit, no faux comity, no don't-make-waves silence. Tell the truth, call it as you see it and do it loudly and often. It's a matter of life and death.

That's the sort disgusting animal Miller is. He's a sub-human, soulless, graceless, emotionally dead peace of shit. The only time he feels any emotion at all is when he causes others to suffer. There's a special level of hell reserved for Miller.
