Newly released FBI docs allege Stephen Miller targeted civil rights organizations

An FBI report obtained by the Southern Poverty Law Center, or SPLC, in federal court in Alabama may reveal secrets about Stephen Miller's role in the Trump administration. Miller, President Donald Trump's deputy chief of staff, has previously shielded his White House communications under executive privilege. The SPLC, which the Trump administration indicted on fraud charges, received the FBI report through discovery. The report closely mirrors a letter conservative groups sent Miller complaining about the SPLC's Hate Map, which tracks hate groups across America. The six passages matched nearly word-for-word. Miller's conflict with the SPLC stems from 2019, when the organization published pieces on emails showing he had promoted white nationalist websites and literature. After conservative activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated, Miller vowed to use Justice Department and Homeland Security resources to target liberal activist networks. The SPLC's lawyers are requesting the court order the disclosure of all communications between Miller and the Justice Department regarding the organization.Watch the video below.
