Stephen Miller Exposes Faux-Feminism of CNN Panel with Facts About Muslim Migration and Open Borders

Julia Hahn, Breitbart, March 27, 2016

Members of Sunday morning’s panel on CNN State of the Union are oblivious to the barbaric, anti-Western practice facing hundreds of thousands of U.S. girls as a result of unbridled Muslim migration.

When the CNN panel sought to criticize Donald Trump for his so-called sexist retweet that has monopolized the news cycle for several days, Trump’s senior policy advisor Stephen Miller punched back, slamming Washington’s political class and corporate media for expressing “feigned indignation” about a retweet while ignoring serious issues facing U.S. women.

“The political class in Washington D.C. works itself up into a feigned indignation about things that don’t actually affect the lives of the American people,” said Stephen Miller. He went on:

I think it says a lot about the conscience of Washington D.C. how many hours we’ve spent discussing a retweet. And it would be nice if one-tenth the outrage that has been spent in feigned indignation over this retweet had instead been spent this summer when Kate Steinle was murdered in cold blood by an illegal immigrant in San Francisco. Congress did nothing when an American citizen was murdered and died in her father’s arms in cold blood.

Miller explained that the political class in Washington D.C. gets mad about the wrong things. Miller then proceeded to list issues that should actually be a source of righteous indignation: “We don’t get mad when Americans are murdered by illegal immigrants, we don’t get mad when people have their jobs taken by cheaper foreign workers here on visa programs, we don’t get mad when entire cities are crushed by our trade policies that send jobs overseas . . . So I think a big part of the Trump campaign is that people want to get mad about the right things.”

Miller continued:

It’s a choice that the political class makes in D.C. in terms of what they want to focus on . . . It is a trivial issue to be debating retweets when it is a fact that you have Americans dying every single day as a result of our immigration policies. You want to talk about women’s issues? Here’s something we should be talking about. This is a fact: as a result of uncontrolled migration into this country–you can look this up, this is a statistic from Equality Now–half a million U.S. girls in this country are at risk of female genital mutilation.

The fact that half a million U.S. girls are at-risk of female genital mutilation as a result of large-scale Muslim migration has been widely documented by publications ranging fromNPR, to ABC, to Reuters, to Newsweek, to the Daily Beast, to the Huffington Post, to theAtlantic, to the New York Times

As the New York Times wrote in February of 2015, “Genital Cutting Cases Seen More as Immigration Rise.”

Indeed, not only was the CNN panel unaware of the fact that half a million U.S. girls are at-risk of suffering the barbaric practice of having their external genital organs removed, but one panelist–a self-described feminist–bizarrely sought to deny the veracity of the report and cover up the gruesome reality facing hundreds of thousands of U.S. girls.

“This is exactly what happens with Donald Trump,” said Neera Tanden, a self-described feminist and president of the Center for American Progress. “He says something outrageous.”

Miller pushed back: “You don’t think that statistic is correct?”

Tanden said that she did not believe the statistic was accurate: “No, I don’t think half a million girls.”
