The chalk messages were written just days after the assassination of Charlie Kirk in Utah, prompting Miller’s wife, the podcaster and former communications official Katie Miller, to post a message of defiance on social media.

“To the ‘Tolerant Left’ who spent their day trying to intimidate us in the house where we have three young children: We will not back down. We will not cower in fear. We will double down. Always, For Charlie,” she posted via X on Sept. 14

    “Stephen Miller is destroying democracy,” “stop the kidnapping,” we [love] immigrants,” “hate has no home in Arlington,” “no white nationalism,” and “trans rights are human rights”

    For anyone curious what kinds of things were written

    Throwing out the “Tolerant Left” trope there of course, anytime someone does something that hurts their feefees.

    She may as well have said “the lefties are supposed to just be pushovers and let me do whatever I want unchallenged!”

        Democrats and Republicans have been playing a completely different game for so long, that they are actually stunned sometimes if someone on the left actually does anything close to resistance.

      Wait. Ok, we will sell up because someone deservedly pulled us up on our fucking bullshit.”

    I was so sure this was an onion type story I had to search it to see if it was real. I’m still in disbelief.

    There’s a twitter link to the post with a video of her washing the chalk messages away…

      I mean the known messages listed in the article were

      “Stephen Miller is destroying democracy,” “stop the kidnapping,” "we 🤍 immigrants,” “hate has no home in Arlington,” “no white nationalism,” “trans rights are human rights”

      Also:

      She [Millers Wife] subsequently posted a photo of “DEI enriches us all” written in chalk on a sidewalk, labeling it “the rallying cry of the losers of the Left.”

      This sounds so much like Satire. Coming from a real person this sounds so delusional, it makes my schizophrenic ex more coherent during one of their episodes.

      Also the house flipping angle (we want a Meeeellion Dollars more than what we paid for two years ago) makes this story even more absurd.

        I think they were planning to sell anyway and the chalking happened during the selling process so they thought they could drum up some outrage from it.

          Love this though–now it’s not likely gonna sell to a liberal, bc who the fuck in their right mind wants whatever that house is cursed with after that scum infested the place? But it’s also not likely to get sold to a conservative bc why would they want to make a target of themselves? I hope that place just rots on the market for eternity ♥️

    During an appearance on The Sean Hannity Show, Stephen Miller and Hannity asserted that the messages amounted to “terroristic threats.”

    The messages:

    “Stephen Miller is destroying democracy,” “stop the kidnapping,” we [love] immigrants,” “hate has no home in Arlington,” “no white nationalism,” and “trans rights are human rights” are among the chalk messages seen last month

    There isn’t a single threat in those messages, let alone “terroristic”. What a bunch of fucking fascist morons.

      Perhaps the Millers will learn their lesson on political terror when ICE comes knocking on their door. Traditionally, the goddamned Nazis end up stabbing each other in the back sooner or later—see “The Night of the Long Knives”.

      They are therefore by no means only a threat to their opponents.

      Looks like Taylor Greene will probably be one of the first to be dealt with, but of course, no one is safe from narcissistic psychopaths without a conscience. So, like anyone else, it could happen to the Millers at any time.

      It wouldn’t surprise me or make me sad in any way—quite the contrary.

        The night of the long knives was an effective consolation of Nazi power. If we see a night of the long knives it will be maga purging factions that threaten their all powerful executive branch and it’s narrative

          Yes, I think so too. And I think that ICE is intended for this purpose, since the regime cannot be sure of the loyalty of the police, let alone the military. I mean, why else would ICE need such an astronomical budget? Further embezzlement of public funds via private prison companies, in which members of the government are certainly involved, surely also plays a role. But when you look at the ruthless actions of ICE and what die-hard fascists they are, it seems pretty obvious to me that it’s already an SS-like secret police force. Maybe it will be renamed once they have seized absolute power.

          They are not there yet, but I think it is very likely that the regime will not allow free elections anymore—then it would risk being held accountable for all its crimes, which is unlikely under the US legal system, but not impossible.

    We do not tolerate intolerance, fuckwit. You’re lucky you’re only getting chalk messages considering the hateful bullshit Miller’s been responsible for.

    I hope they can’t sell it and have to drop the price drastically. I mean, what must it smell like in there?

      From here it seems 3 would be normal, one for trash, recycling, and yard waste. But that house has three bins dedicated to trash pickup every week, which seems like a lot.
