The Democratic California governor, widely seen as a 2028 presidential contender, has wielded his X account like one giant roasting machine to get under Trump’s skin.
This time it processed Miller, who turned up the volume on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle.” Host Laura Ingraham claimed Newsom and allies “obviously want illegal aliens to vote” because Newsom has resisted voter ID mandates.
Trump’s deputy chief of staff then slithered into a claim that really got Newsom’s attention ― that California has stolen House seats.
“As we know, California has outright stolen House seats just by counting illegal aliens in the census,” Miller said before jacking up the decibels. “There are entire members from California whose districts only exist because their constituents are illegal aliens! They will never find an example of more direct theft of American franchise and civil rights than creating Democrat House seats comprised of illegal alien constituents.”
“Stephen, if you’re going to lie about who is stealing Congressional seats, at least stop yelling,” he wrote. “It’s very shrill.”

The governor seemed to imply it was the Republicans who were guilty of theft. Texas’ gerrymandering efforts were recently ordered by Trump to create more Republican districts so the GOP can keep control of the House.
