Is Gavin Newsom Trying to Get Stephen Miller Killed? He Responds to Vile X Post

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) drew criticism this week after his official press office account referred to White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller as a “fascist” and “SS” in a post on X.

The Governor Newsom Press Office account, which posts both formal updates and partisan commentary, published the message on Monday.

“STEPHEN MILLER IS A FASCIST!” the account wrote in all caps, before also using “SS,” the abbreviation for the Schutzstaffel, the Nazi regime’s paramilitary corps responsible for orchestrating the Holocaust.

MANY PEOPLE ARE SAYING THAT “SUBMISSIVE STEPHEN” (“SS”) MILLER IS THROWING THE BIGGEST, MOST PATHETIC “TANTRUM” IN THE ENTIRE WEST WING. CRYING, STOMPING, WAILING, “OUR QUOTAS! OUR ARRESTS OF CHILDREN! HOW WILL WE SURVIVE WITHOUT RAIDING THE INNOCENT?!” HIS TANTRUM WAS SO LOUD IT…

Miller is Jewish.

The post quickly generated attention online, with Breitbart News Senior Editor-at-Large Joel Pollak reporting that Newsom had “launched an antisemitic attack” by employing Nazi imagery in reference to a Jewish official.

Critics said the choice of language was inflammatory and dangerous.

Public figures and commentators voiced alarm over the remarks. Andrew Kolvet, executive producer of The Charlie Kirk Show, posted, “You’ve got to stop this.”

You’ve got to stop this. Seriously.

Another user added, “California Governor Gavin Newsom is inciting violence against White House senior staffer Stephen Miller.

This comes a week after Governor Gavin Newsom called for doxing ICE agents even as Antifa terrorists were shooting at ICE agents.”

The statement marked a continuation of combative messaging from Newsom’s press office, which has previously used its platform to attack President Donald Trump and members of his administration.

However, the direct reference to Nazi terminology brought a heightened level of backlash, particularly given Miller’s faith.

Responses to the post varied.

While some echoed Newsom’s description of Miller as a “fascist,” others condemned the rhetoric and called for restraint.

Several posts accused Newsom of trivializing historical atrocities for partisan purposes.

The criticism followed recent controversy surrounding Newsom’s call for publishing information about Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel.

That push coincided with reports of Antifa-linked violence targeting ICE facilities and agents, prompting further accusations that the governor’s rhetoric could endanger federal employees.

The remarks remain under scrutiny from political observers and members of the public who argue that elected officials should avoid employing comparisons to Nazi organizations in political discourse.

Miller, who has served as a senior policy advisor to President Donald Trump since his first administration and now holds the position of Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, has frequently been a target of partisan attacks for his role in shaping immigration and border enforcement policies.

The controversy over Newsom’s post adds to the ongoing tension between California’s governor and President Trump’s administration.

It also raises new questions about the boundaries of official government communication and the consequences of invoking Holocaust references in political disputes.
