Miller Defends Terminology

Stephen Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff, took aim at CNN's Pamela Brown for her choice of words, calling out her use of "undocumented migrant" instead of "illegal alien" while discussing an arrest linked to threats against President Trump. He underscored the need for precise language in media. Additionally, Miller revealed the deportation of a Colombian family's members following a tragic accident in Colorado.
