Thom Tillis says he believes Miller has \u2018outsized influence\u2019 over operations of Trump\u2019s cabinet \u2013 key US politics stories from Sunday 8 March at a glance
The Republican senator Thom Tillis said on Sunday that he believed the White House adviser Stephen Miller \u201cshould go\u201d and that his role in the Trump administration<\/a> has been a \u201cbig problem\u201d.
The senior senator representing North Carolina, when asked on CNN\u2019s State of the Union if he thought Miller should go during a conversation about the administration\u2019s immigration crackdown, responded to the host Jake Tapper by stating: \u201cOh, of course I do.\u201d
\u201cHe is not worried about substance. He\u2019s more worried about form, but I also think that he has an outsized influence over the operations of the cabinet. And I believe we\u2019ve got qualified cabinet members there that sometimes are doing less than what they want to, because of his direction and his outsized influence. He\u2019s a big problem in this administration. He has been from the beginning,\u201d said Tillis.
Here are the big stories:
Tillis affirmed support for the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security pick Markwayne Mullin to replace Kristi Noem<\/a>, saying he believed that Mullin will be independent from Miller\u2019s influence, even though Mullin repeated similar falsehoods about the killings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good by federal agents.
\u201cIt gives me pause that you had people like Stephen Miller calling the shots,\u201d Tillis added. \u201cIt was Stephen Miller who said it was the position of the United States that we should go after Greenland. And Stephen Miller, that\u2019s been repeatedly responsible for embarrassments for the president of the United States by acting too quickly speaking, first, and thinking later.\u201d
