The White Nationalist Websites Cited by Stephen Miller

WASHINGTON — Peter Brimelow, the founder of the anti-immigration website VDARE, believes that diversity has weakened the United States, and that the increase in Spanish speakers is a “ferocious attack on the living standards of the American working class.”

Jared Taylor, the editor of the white nationalist magazine American Renaissance, is a self-described “white advocate” who has written that “newcomers are not the needy; they are the greedy.”

As a young Senate aide, Stephen Miller, President Trump’s chief immigration adviser, referred to the two sources while promoting his anti-immigration views, suggesting deeper intellectual ties to the world of white nationalism than previously known.

“The heart of where these guys differ from neoconservatives and Republican orthodoxy is basically: ‘What is the American nation and what is the nature of American nationhood?’” Lawrence Rosenthal, the chair and lead researcher at the Berkeley Center for Right-Wing Studies at the University of California, said in an interview.

There's a reason for that.

They share Miller's views. Their silence has nothing to do with political calculations. They see Miller as one of their own. Until now they have had to keep their vile world view under the rocks they slithered out from under. But now they are in the light of day and are confident that they are now the mainstream. I think we're going to see more prominent republicans speaking at white nationalist events and being interviewed on similarly fascist websites, podcasts, etc.
