'Acolyte of an elderly man': Stephen Miller bashed after attacking 'elderly' protesters

By Sarah K. Burris
Published August 20, 2025 3:15 PM ET

President Donald Trump's deputy chief of staff, Stephen Miller, was on hand with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on Wednesday when the group visited a Washington, D.C. Shake Shack.

A crowd of protesters and travelers shouted up at the second floor of the Union Station balcony as National Guard soldiers surrounded them.

"All these demonstrators that you've seen out here in recent days, all these elderly white hippies, they're not part of the city and never have been," Miller, who is from California, told the press. "We're gonna ignore these stupid white hippies that all need to go home and take a nap because they're all over 90 years old."

Never doubted it since I was 16. I’ll be 79 in October.
I’ve hopscotched around many beliefs and principles in my life.

Never that one.

And Mr. Miller had best not find himself in front of my walker any time soon. I mean it.
