Boo fucking hoo
Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and others have taken over homes that until recently housed senior officers.

For weeks before Kirks death, activists had been protesting the Millers presence in north Arlington, Virginia. Someone had put up wanted posters in their neighborhood with their home address, denouncing Stephen as a Nazi who had committed crimes against humanity. A group called Arlington Neighbors United for Humanity warned in an Instagram post: Your efforts to dismantle our democracy and destroy our social safety net will not be tolerated here. The local protest became a backdrop to the Trump administrations response to Kirks killing. When Miller, the architect of that response who is known for his inflammatory political rhetoric, announced a legal crackdown on liberal groups, he singled out the tactics that had victimized his familywhat he called organized campaigns of dehumanization, vilification, posting peoples addresses.
Stephen Miller soon joined a growing list of senior Trump-administration political appointeesat least six by our countliving in Washington-area military housing, where they are shielded not just from potential violence but also from protest. It is an ominous marker of the nations polarization, to which the Trump administration has itself contributed, that some of those top public servants have felt a need to separate themselves from the public. These civilian officials can now depend on the U.S. military to augment their personal security. But so many have made the move that they are now straining the availability of housing for the nations top uniformed officers.
