Stephen Miller Threatens Suit Against Schools Who Ignore SCOTUS Affirmative Action Decision


Stephen Miller Threatens Suit Against Schools Who Ignore SCOTUS Affirmative Action Decision
The former Trump adviser told 200 law school deans to respect the court's decision or see him in court.

Former White House adviser Stephen Miller sent a testy message to top law schools over the weekend following the Supreme Court’s decision banning colleges from using affirmative action in their admission decisions.

The Republican gadfly preemptively pestered 200 of the nation’s law school deans with the threat of legal action if they “violate, circumvent, bypass, subvert or otherwise program around” the ruling in Students for Fair Admissions cases against Harvard University and the University of North Carolina.

In its decision, the Supreme Court determined colleges cannot consider race as a factor in admissions based on the 14th Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause.

Miller, who served as a top adviser to President Donald Trump from 2017 to 2021 and is now the president of America First Legal, announced his legal plans in a smug Twitter video on Saturday.

Wouldn’t America First mean liberty and Justice for all?

Should we feel sad for all the white kids who never had the opportunity to streak through the quad? I’m dating myself, which should be uncomfortable. (Dickson Street, University of Arkansas 1976) but I digress.

Steven Millers a bad ass. First line in his resume - top advisor to trump.

Yes Steve, we need more cavanaughs and cone heads directing our path to the future. Because you, a Nazi says so?

I bet Harvard had pretty good lawyers for their case at the Supreme Court. It did not go too well for them.
