1. Jesus, another one.

truth is, they are everywhere. like cancer cells.

I had cancer, I know.... but I have been lucky..... so far.

We need to inject some R-CHOP into this poisonous body...

2. Miller is a self regarding twerp with delusions of grandeur.

We shall see what "will be questioned." He is drunk on his moment of power and does not impress me in the slightest, let alone terrify me. He's going down.

3. Actually, the judicial branch is on the same level as the executive branch

I realize he would like it to be otherwise but there you have it, deal with it. This is not, yet, a dictatorship and the president can, will, and should be questioned.

4. I mentioned on another thread about scaring my pets when I yelled at the TV

This guy is frightening. Soulless, dead-eyed, relentless.

They should cast him in The Walking Dead.

5. Phony babyman

Male pattern baldness, dead eyes, unqualified, unworthy

Putin wannabe ( or perhaps appointee?)

6. I'm not particularly scared

So far these folks can't do anything right. They think they run everything but nobody is following their orders.

7. Holy crap - he was almost a caricature of nazi/KKK/I'm going to F#$k you up kind of guy issuing

terrifying anti-American orders and threats. Yes, he scared me - I was waiting for the sharp "heil Hitler" salute.

9. He's a nazi

No doubt about that.

8. Somebody (don't remember who) said that Miller and the other Trump minions

who do the cable interviews are speaking to only one audience: Trump. They've gone full Baghdad Bob; they dare not speak words not approved by SCROTUS. Baghdad Bob, as you recall, was Saddam Hussein's Information Minister who regularly delivered hilariously wrong "information" during Gulf War I.

His pronouncements included claims that American soldiers were committing suicide "by the hundreds" outside the city, and denial that there were any American tanks in Baghdad, when in fact they were only several hundred meters away from the press conference where he was speaking and the combat sounds of the nearing American troops could already be heard in the background of the broadcast. On another occasion he spoke of the disastrous outcomes of previous foreign attempts to invade Iraq, citing an unspecified western history book and inviting the journalists present to come to his home to read it. His last public appearance as Information Minister was on 8 April 2003, when he said that the Americans "are going to surrender or be burned in their tanks. They will surrender, it is they who will surrender".

Poor "Bob" was in a tough spot. If he had said anything that actually approached the truth about the invasion, Saddam probably would have had him shot; no doubt his audience was Saddam as much as it was the Iraqis. While SCROTUS is not likely to have Miller or Spicer shot if they don't repeat their Trump-approved lies like automatons (at least not yet), he will most certainly fire them. Their lies are approaching Bob-like craziness but they have to tell them. Why anyone would actually want to be SCROTUS' spokesperson is beyond me.

10. The Big Lie

Big lie

A big lie (German: große Lüge) is a propaganda technique. The expression was coined by Adolf Hitler, when he dictated his 1925 book Mein Kampf, about the use of a lie so "colossal" that no one would believe that someone "could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously."

Think of Miller as a Goebbels wannabe and Muslims as his Jews, and it all begins to make a macabre, nightmarish kind of sense.

11. WaPo and NY Times both profiled Miller today.

In depth. He sounds insane, but because of his position he is dangerous.
