    Is Stephen Miller A Sociopath? Examining His Controversial Actions And Rhetoric

    Signs And Symptoms

    Identifying sociopathy involves recognizing specific signs and symptoms. Here are common indicators:

    Disregard for Laws and Social Norms

    Sociopaths often ignore rules and boundaries, engaging in illegal or unethical behaviors without remorse.

    Frequent Lying

    Sociopaths tell lies with ease, using them to gain trust or manipulate others. They may present a false image of themselves to achieve their goals.

    Inability to Form Lasting Relationships

    Sociopaths struggle to maintain deep relationships, often viewing others as tools for personal benefit.

    Easily Bored

    Sociopaths frequently seek new thrills. This need for stimulation can lead to risky behavior and frequent changes in jobs or relationships.

    Hostility and Irritability

    Sociopaths may exhibit aggressive behaviors when challenged or threatened, leading to conflicts in various settings.

    How can service members be confident enough that the order is illegal, to refuse it, or believe adhering to their oath offers any protection from retaliation?

    “It is insurrection, plainly, directly, without question,” Miller later told Fox News. “It’s a general call for rebellion from the CIA and the armed services of the United States by Democrat lawmakers, saying that you have not only the right, but the duty and the obligation to defy orders of the commander-in-chief that those who carry weapons in America’s name should defy their chain of command and engage in open acts of insurrection.”

    Always lovely how on Fox news you can twist words, twist reality, outright lie, it’s all fine, because as they claim themselves z they’re not a news channel but an entertainment channel. Even sued the government to be able to lie…

    And these magats just eat it up like cupcakes

    After all this is over and Stephen Miller is placed under arrest or whatever else it may be, I will celebrate in the streets.

    It’s a short article that’s mostly his quotes, worth the read.

    Didn’t they already downplay the whole insurrection thing? Hard to take these clowns seriously.

    Our insurrection was invading the capital with the intention of killing the Vice President!

    Your insurrection is telling the army it is okay to refuse to attack US citizens!

      They do that deliberately. You see that a lot among Republicans. I assume it’s similar motivations as when they say the US is “a republic, not a democracy”. Apparently it irks them that they have democracy in the name.

          They have been doing it for decades. I’m fairly certain Newt got them to do it as part of his intentional strategy to divide Washington (then, in lockstep, all these fuckers started talking about how “divisive” Obama is, imagine that) with his GOPAC training.

          But it predates even that by decades.

          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democrat_Party_(epithet)

          It annoys me because every time I hear some brat of a Republican in a high position use it, they sound exactly like that stupid kid that knew that “ain’t” is not a word, but they’d say it anyway to annoy teachers (or anyone that knows the English language, really). Or when you hear someone who has probably been corrected a thousand times on words like “supposedly” still say “supposably”.

          It just sounds like a defiant jackass demonstrating the Peter principle.

          I wish to Zeus that reporters would make a pact to ALL start asking Republicans that do this simple questions such as: “You don’t know the proper name of the DemocratIC Party?” or “Surely you know the name is the DemocratIC Party? Why don’t you say the right name?” or “Do realize how childish your entire party comes off when you cannot even say ‘the DemocratIC Party’?”

          Really just shame these motherfuckers. At every chance when they do this. I wish Democratic Senators and Reps would do it on the floor, too. Same with guests on outlets like Faux, because Faux does it, too.

          It’s not a huge thing, but the complete childishness of the Republicans ALL doing it nearly uniformly should be pointed out as the childish and juvenile bullshit that it is.

    Classic FOX blaming the “Democrats” from the civil war, which were in fact what we call today Republicans.
