RUSH TRANSCRIPT All right ░░░░░░░░ now to our top ░░░░░░░░ the White House defending ░░░░░░░░ actions of the mass ░░░░░░░░ of alleged venezuelan gang ░░░░░░░░ Stephen Miller the White ░░░░░░░░ deputy chief of staff ░░░░░░░░ here with me now ░░░░░░░░ thanks very much for ░░░░░░░░ in the arena Glad ░░░░░░░░ Thank you So you ░░░░░░░░ the judge s order ░░░░░░░░ earlier today Quote patently ░░░░░░░░ end quote and said ░░░░░░░░ it was an assault ░░░░░░░░ democracy itself Does that ░░░░░░░░ that the administration is ░░░░░░░░ this order And might ░░░░░░░░ ignore future court orders ░░░░░░░░ meet the criteria you ░░░░░░░░ out The president Of ░░░░░░░░ United States And his ░░░░░░░░ Reserve all Rights under ░░░░░░░░ Constitution to Conduct national ░░░░░░░░ operations in defense of ░░░░░░░░ United States The alien ░░░░░░░░ act which was passed ░░░░░░░░ law by the founding ░░░░░░░░ of this country men ░░░░░░░░ John Adams was written ░░░░░░░░ to give the president ░░░░░░░░ authority to repel an ░░░░░░░░ invasion of the United ░░░░░░░░ That is not something ░░░░░░░░ a district court judge ░░░░░░░░ any authority whatsoever to ░░░░░░░░ with to enjoin to ░░░░░░░░ or to restrain any ░░░░░░░░ you can read the ░░░░░░░░ yourself There s not ░░░░░░░░ clause in that law ░░░░░░░░ makes it subject to ░░░░░░░░ review let alone district ░░░░░░░░ review So Stephen when ░░░░░░░░ when you say that ░░░░░░░░ person has no authority ░░░░░░░░ all this is how ░░░░░░░░ system works It starts ░░░░░░░░ these judges And then ░░░░░░░░ up At what point ░░░░░░░░ it become in your ░░░░░░░░ legal for the justice ░░░░░░░░ to be looking at ░░░░░░░░ and making a judgment ░░░░░░░░ I fail to see ░░░░░░░░ there s any other ░░░░░░░░ But to start with ░░░░░░░░ we re starting here ░░░░░░░░ you get to eventually ░░░░░░░░ Supreme Court Well so ░░░░░░░░ of all there s ░░░░░░░░ there s a term ░░░░░░░░ law justiciable This is ░░░░░░░░ justiciable In other words ░░░░░░░░ is not subject to ░░░░░░░░ remedy When the president ░░░░░░░░ exercising his article two ░░░░░░░░ to defend the country ░░░░░░░░ an invasion or to ░░░░░░░░ a foreign terrorist that ░░░░░░░░ unlawfully in the country ░░░░░░░░ s exercising his core ░░░░░░░░ two powers as commander ░░░░░░░░ chief If Venezuela invading ░░░░░░░░ U S This is ░░░░░░░░ is a very important ░░░░░░░░ This is a title ░░░░░░░░ authority It s a ░░░░░░░░ in chief authority So ░░░░░░░░ to ask you a ░░░░░░░░ question You talk about ░░░░░░░░ the system works Does ░░░░░░░░ district court judge have ░░░░░░░░ right to direct or ░░░░░░░░ troop movements overseas Yes ░░░░░░░░ no Well Stephen my ░░░░░░░░ I don t know ░░░░░░░░ you can answer my ░░░░░░░░ first In other words ░░░░░░░░ is Venezuela Is Venezuela ░░░░░░░░ our country in a ░░░░░░░░ that would tda So ░░░░░░░░ the So I ll ░░░░░░░░ yours and you ll ░░░░░░░░ mine Under the terms ░░░░░░░░ the statute tren de ░░░░░░░░ is an alien enemy ░░░░░░░░ that has come here ░░░░░░░░ detailed at length in ░░░░░░░░ proclamation at the direction ░░░░░░░░ the venezuelan government The ░░░░░░░░ says that a president ░░░░░░░░ the ability to repel ░░░░░░░░ invasion or predatory incursion ░░░░░░░░ is directed By a ░░░░░░░░ or a government Right ░░░░░░░░ they a state or ░░░░░░░░ government This would be ░░░░░░░░ it is It is ░░░░░░░░ The tda was sent ░░░░░░░░ the venezuelan government in ░░░░░░░░ proclamation And here s ░░░░░░░░ even more important point ░░░░░░░░ the Constitution who makes ░░░░░░░░ determination A district court ░░░░░░░░ elected by no one ░░░░░░░░ the commander in chief ░░░░░░░░ the army and navy ░░░░░░░░ president and the president ░░░░░░░░ makes a decision of ░░░░░░░░ triggers that determination Think ░░░░░░░░ are actually at war ░░░░░░░░ Venezuela the nation state ░░░░░░░░ Venezuela You re not ░░░░░░░░ me and you re ░░░░░░░░ understanding me Read the ░░░░░░░░ Alien enemies act 1798 ░░░░░░░░ says if a predatory ░░░░░░░░ is perpetrated by a ░░░░░░░░ government So it lists ░░░░░░░░ three qualifying actions it ░░░░░░░░ be an act It ░░░░░░░░ say in the very ░░░░░░░░ there has to be ░░░░░░░░ declared war against a ░░░░░░░░ or a state That ░░░░░░░░ what it says No ░░░░░░░░ Look up the statute ░░░░░░░░ s on my account ░░░░░░░░ social Media actually where ░░░░░░░░ found it here The ░░░░░░░░ it says or a ░░░░░░░░ incursion or an invasion ░░░░░░░░ statute delineates three criteria ░░░░░░░░ triggering the alien enemies ░░░░░░░░ One is an act ░░░░░░░░ war which by the ░░░░░░░░ an invasion is an ░░░░░░░░ of war But put ░░░░░░░░ aside One is an ░░░░░░░░ which this is One ░░░░░░░░ a predatory incursion which ░░░░░░░░ is So it actually ░░░░░░░░ all three statutory criteria ░░░░░░░░ with respect to this ░░░░░░░░ statute it s the ░░░░░░░░ is utilizing the incursion ░░░░░░░░ invasion language in the ░░░░░░░░ So but but this ░░░░░░░░ a very important question ░░░░░░░░ No no no Hold ░░░░░░░░ This is a very ░░░░░░░░ question You said the ░░░░░░░░ our system works is ░░░░░░░░ president of the United ░░░░░░░░ commands the armed forces ░░░░░░░░ the country commands the ░░░░░░░░ policy of the country ░░░░░░░░ that s subject to ░░░░░░░░ court review That is ░░░░░░░░ untrue I never said ░░░░░░░░ Stephen I did not ░░░░░░░░ never been true This ░░░░░░░░ not a military operation ░░░░░░░░ mean A district court ░░░░░░░░ can no more enjoin ░░░░░░░░ expulsion of foreign terrorists ░░░░░░░░ foreign soil that he ░░░░░░░░ direct the movement of ░░░░░░░░ Force One than he ░░░░░░░░ direct the movement of ░░░░░░░░ aircraft carrier than he ░░░░░░░░ direct Marco Rubio to ░░░░░░░░ Do you think The ░░░░░░░░ Court has any say ░░░░░░░░ this or not Like ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court of ░░░░░░░░ United States have any ░░░░░░░░ over the things that ░░░░░░░░ were just outlining right ░░░░░░░░ I believe what the ░░░░░░░░ Court will say is ░░░░░░░░ I just said which ░░░░░░░░ that the president s ░░░░░░░░ here is not subject ░░░░░░░░ judicial You are you ░░░░░░░░ acknowledging That they do ░░░░░░░░ fact have a say ░░░░░░░░ Well Even though you ░░░░░░░░ they may agree with ░░░░░░░░ Well we are expecting ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court to ░░░░░░░░ what has always been ░░░░░░░░ case which is when ░░░░░░░░ president is using his ░░░░░░░░ as commander in chief ░░░░░░░░ determinations are not subject ░░░░░░░░ judicial review In other ░░░░░░░░ the president s designation ░░░░░░░░ tren de aragua as ░░░░░░░░ foreign terrorist organization and ░░░░░░░░ an alien enemy are ░░░░░░░░ of his inherent plenary ░░░░░░░░ There is no way ░░░░░░░░ what point There s ░░░░░░░░ way Stephen how are ░░░░░░░░ going to gain power ░░░░░░░░ are you going to ░░░░░░░░ illegal alien invaders from ░░░░░░░░ country who are raping ░░░░░░░░ girls who are murdering ░░░░░░░░ girls If each and ░░░░░░░░ deportation has to be ░░░░░░░░ in a district court ░░░░░░░░ and that means you ░░░░░░░░ no country It means ░░░░░░░░ have no sovereignty It ░░░░░░░░ you have no future ░░░░░░░░ is fundamentally incompatible to ░░░░░░░░ a country and have ░░░░░░░░ expulsions adjudicated by a ░░░░░░░░ district court judge I ░░░░░░░░ just trying to figure ░░░░░░░░ at what point Do ░░░░░░░░ because what does the ░░░░░░░░ Administration believe Because we ░░░░░░░░ have separation of powers ░░░░░░░░ this country I hear ░░░░░░░░ you re saying You ░░░░░░░░ saying The division of ░░░░░░░░ does not The judiciary ░░░░░░░░ in the executive function ░░░░░░░░ is the separation of ░░░░░░░░ That is the Did ░░░░░░░░ ignore the judge s ░░░░░░░░ here because you thought ░░░░░░░░ could So the judge ░░░░░░░░ order and the actions ░░░░░░░░ by the departments of ░░░░░░░░ justice and homeland security ░░░░░░░░ not in conflict And ░░░░░░░░ Department of Justice has ░░░░░░░░ clear that they are ░░░░░░░░ in conflict But so ░░░░░░░░ think that you did ░░░░░░░░ along with the order ░░░░░░░░ the judge put out ░░░░░░░░ do not think that ░░░░░░░░ Trump Administration defied this ░░░░░░░░ As the Justice Department ░░░░░░░░ there is no conflict ░░░░░░░░ the judge s order ░░░░░░░░ the action is taken ░░░░░░░░ the departments I just ░░░░░░░░ But I m making ░░░░░░░░ deeper and more fundamental ░░░░░░░░ The district So yeah ░░░░░░░░ mean if you don ░░░░░░░░ have to follow Why ░░░░░░░░ t you The district ░░░░░░░░ has no ability to ░░░░░░░░ any way restrain the ░░░░░░░░ s authorities under the ░░░░░░░░ enemies act or his ░░░░░░░░ to conduct the foreign ░░░░░░░░ of the United States ░░░░░░░░ me paint a picture ░░░░░░░░ you President Trump and ░░░░░░░░ of state Marco Rubio ░░░░░░░░ engaged in intensive diplomacy ░░░░░░░░ obtain a bilateral security ░░░░░░░░ with the nation of ░░░░░░░░ Salvador If a district ░░░░░░░░ judge can enjoin that ░░░░░░░░ security agreement then we ░░░░░░░░ not have democracy We ░░░░░░░░ not have a foreign ░░░░░░░░ I ve heard you ░░░░░░░░ this Did did you ░░░░░░░░ that Did the administration ░░░░░░░░ the order from the ░░░░░░░░ judge It s a ░░░░░░░░ Question I ve answered ░░░░░░░░ I ve answered it ░░░░░░░░ ve answered it because ░░░░░░░░ Department of Justice has ░░░░░░░░ a filing in the ░░░░░░░░ But let me make ░░░░░░░░ point The judge in ░░░░░░░░ case put the lives ░░░░░░░░ every single person on ░░░░░░░░ aircraft at risk Did ░░░░░░░░ know how much fuel ░░░░░░░░ in those planes Did ░░░░░░░░ know what the flight ░░░░░░░░ Did he know the ░░░░░░░░ conditions Did he know ░░░░░░░░ many crew hours that ░░░░░░░░ knew the need for ░░░░░░░░ rest Did he know ░░░░░░░░ of that No This ░░░░░░░░ violated the law He ░░░░░░░░ the Constitution He defied ░░░░░░░░ system of government that ░░░░░░░░ have in this country ░░░░░░░░ that does seem to ░░░░░░░░ what you re arguing ░░░░░░░░ Same these same district ░░░░░░░░ judges didn t do ░░░░░░░░ thing to stop Joe ░░░░░░░░ from flooding this nation ░░░░░░░░ millions of illegal aliens ░░░░░░░░ these district court judges ░░░░░░░░ t issue any injunctions ░░░░░░░░ save the lives of ░░░░░░░░ sarlin the White House ░░░░░░░░ Riley Or any federal ░░░░░░░░ Is that what you ░░░░░░░░ saying What I m ░░░░░░░░ is that what you ░░░░░░░░ there s a separation ░░░░░░░░ powers The the the ░░░░░░░░ exercises judgment and relief ░░░░░░░░ don t speak for ░░░░░░░░ White House You are ░░░░░░░░ To speak I will ░░░░░░░░ You re here to ░░░░░░░░ for the White House ░░░░░░░░ will I just want ░░░░░░░░ to answer that one ░░░░░░░░ question I Am ready ░░░░░░░░ we go Under a ░░░░░░░░ reading of the Constitution ░░░░░░░░ court judges provide relief ░░░░░░░░ individual plaintiffs seeking relief ░░░░░░░░ court judges do not ░░░░░░░░ the authority as a ░░░░░░░░ matter to enjoin the ░░░░░░░░ of the executive Branch ░░░░░░░░ their authority is at ░░░░░░░░ lowest point When the ░░░░░░░░ is exercising his powers ░░░░░░░░ commander in chief And ░░░░░░░░ asked you a question ░░░░░░░░ never answered it Can ░░░░░░░░ judge enjoin troop movements ░░░░░░░░ Can a district court ░░░░░░░░ enjoin troop movements overseas ░░░░░░░░ Yes sir I am ░░░░░░░░ going to get into ░░░░░░░░ the Just say no ░░░░░░░░ then you ll know ░░░░░░░░ I m right This ░░░░░░░░ a say no question ░░░░░░░░ ll know that I ░░░░░░░░ right Okay We re ░░░░░░░░ talking about other other ░░░░░░░░ The president I need ░░░░░░░░ ask you about something ░░░░░░░░ The president issued a ░░░░░░░░ delineating in detail how ░░░░░░░░ venezuelan regime sent this ░░░░░░░░ this terrorist organization to ░░░░░░░░ shores and by the ░░░░░░░░ and I love being ░░░░░░░░ but all the outrage ░░░░░░░░ we are seeing from ░░░░░░░░ Democrat party and from ░░░░░░░░ corporate media None of ░░░░░░░░ outrage was expressed when ░░░░░░░░ jocelyn nungaray was tortured ░░░░░░░░ beaten to death None ░░░░░░░░ that outrage was expressed ░░░░░░░░ our nation was flooded ░░░░░░░░ illegal aliens I have ░░░░░░░░ been simply trying to ░░░░░░░░ a simple answer to ░░░░░░░░ simple question no outrage ░░░░░░░░ about whether or not ░░░░░░░░ white House is But ░░░░░░░░ am But I need ░░░░░░░░ I need To ask ░░░░░░░░ one more question I ░░░░░░░░ going To Have to ░░░░░░░░ you go defending tren ░░░░░░░░ aragua instead of celebrating ░░░░░░░░ Trump expelling these terrorists ░░░░░░░░ our midst and I ░░░░░░░░ glad for the opportunity ░░░░░░░░ explain how the separation ░░░░░░░░ powers does work if ░░░░░░░░ president has to litigate ░░░░░░░░ national security action with ░░░░░░░░ district court judges that ░░░░░░░░ don t have a ░░░░░░░░ democracy One other question ░░░░░░░░ the president s power ░░░░░░░░ it s on a ░░░░░░░░ different topic but we ░░░░░░░░ President Trump s comments ░░░░░░░░ the use of the ░░░░░░░░ the pardons that President ░░░░░░░░ signed and I just ░░░░░░░░ to know from you ░░░░░░░░ President Trump ever used ░░░░░░░░ autopen to sign official ░░░░░░░░ either in his first ░░░░░░░░ or since he took ░░░░░░░░ a second time Trump ░░░░░░░░ sign every executive order ░░░░░░░░ whole time and every ░░░░░░░░ Have you ever seen ░░░░░░░░ Use an autopen for ░░░░░░░░ but more President Trump ░░░░░░░░ every single critical government ░░░░░░░░ document but here s ░░░░░░░░ more important point about ░░░░░░░░ even more important the ░░░░░░░░ important point is that ░░░░░░░░ Trump personally directs every ░░░░░░░░ federal government policy right ░░░░░░░░ has he ever signed ░░░░░░░░ Personally directed pen To ░░░░░░░░ knowledge every single executive ░░░░░░░░ every single proclamation every ░░░░░░░░ major government action every ░░░░░░░░ thing that affects the ░░░░░░░░ safety and livelihoods of ░░░░░░░░ American people that comes ░░░░░░░░ of the executive office ░░░░░░░░ the president he has ░░░░░░░░ but more importantly he ░░░░░░░░ directed he has briefed ░░░░░░░░ has been involved in ░░░░░░░░ this is the most ░░░░░░░░ point it s not ░░░░░░░░ that Joe Biden used ░░░░░░░░ autopen is that he ░░░░░░░░ t know it he ░░░░░░░░ not briefed on it ░░░░░░░░ was not aware of ░░░░░░░░ he did not approve ░░░░░░░░ he was not mentally ░░░░░░░░ of what the government ░░░░░░░░ doing If we re ░░░░░░░░ about the legality of ░░░░░░░░ signed with the autopen ░░░░░░░░ not I m just ░░░░░░░░ to figure out if ░░░░░░░░ s anything President Trump ░░░░░░░░ It feels like you ░░░░░░░░ missing it Stephen I ░░░░░░░░ so sorry We re ░░░░░░░░ out of time I ░░░░░░░░ appreciate how much time ░░░░░░░░ didn t know what ░░░░░░░░ being signed in his ░░░░░░░░ All right that s ░░░░░░░░ I understand I understand ░░░░░░░░ you are saying I ░░░░░░░░ appreciate you coming on ░░░░░░░░ explain your point of ░░░░░░░░ thank you very much ░░░░░░░░ being willing to be ░░░░░░░░ and I m sure ░░░░░░░░ ll talk again at ░░░░░░░░ point soon Thank you ░░░░░░░░ forward to it.
