Western Journal reports CNN pressed Rep. Robert Garcia on Stephen Miller’s alleged “crimes.” The outlet says he couldn’t name one.
According to the Western Journal account of a CNN interview on Sunday, Rep. Robert Garcia, identified by the outlet as the incoming House Oversight Committee chairman, “failed … to name a single crime” committed by Stephen Miller, whom the outlet describes as the newly appointed White House chief of staff.
What sparked the on-air question
Western Journal says Garcia had reacted to Miller’s promotion by posting on social media that Miller “should lawyer up.” The outlet adds that a CNN correspondent it identified as “Dash Bash” asked Garcia to explain why he intends to investigate Miller, pressing with, “Do you think that he committed a crime?”
