Senior White House adviser Stephen Miller, author of President Donald Trump’s fiery screeds warning of the dangers of illegal immigration, is not known to be passionate about child care or family leave policies. According to a Friday report in Politico, however, the immigration hardliner has added “women’s issues” to his portfolio.

This new focus is a strategic move on Miller’s part, according to Politico. Chief Strategist Steve Bannon, a fellow immigration hardliner and “America First” nationalist, is being shunted aside as Trump tires of headlines proclaiming him the secret puppet-master of his White House. Power is shifting towards Trump’s son-in-law and top adviser, Jared Kushner, and his wife, Ivanka Trump, and Miller is apparently doing his best to ingratiate himself with the couple.

He is working with Kushner’s Office of American Innovation and assisting Ivanka Trump with her work on “women’s issues,” according to Politico.

This bolsters the Washington Post’s report earlier this week that Miller has “strategically aligned himself with Kushner” as Bannon’s star in the White House fades.

1. I cannot believe Trump is letting old dead eyes near his daughter on a daily basis. He will

destroy what is left of her heart, guts and brain.

2. So this little worm is going to herald in the

beginning of "A Hand Maiden's Tale". Great, I'll sleep better tonight.

3. Maybe Ivanka has a thing for dead eyed men.

Jared's aren't much better.

4. That's very GOP - having a man in charge of things that matter to women.

At least they could have picked a sane male. Miller is an authoritarian oaf. I'm sure his agenda will include dictating pregnancy, homemaking and being submissive.
