White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, who polls show is losing the battle of public opinion over flooding the streets of Minneapolis with armed ICE agents, made a baseless claim on Monday morning that police in the embattled city have been told to let protesters do what they want.Contrary to viral videos of Minneapolis police showing up and standing between protesters and masked ICE agents who have been using chemical weapons on their antagonists, Miller used two posts on X to make his latest inflammatory announcement.“Only federal officers are upholding the law. Local and state police have been ordered to stand down and surrender,” Miller wrote in response to Miranda Devine, a Fox News contributor and New York City author with only 6,506 followers writing, “Local cops have gone AWOL.”Divine arrived at her conclusion from a post by podcaster Tim Pool, who has previously been exposed for being “duped” into spreading Russian propaganda, according to PBS.Late Sunday, Pool posted without evidence, “The things I’m hearing out of Minneapolis are insane Activists forcing their way into churches, attacking random pedestrians, stalking SUVs, Wtf is going on?”Responding to Miller’s claim, X user Skyline News turned to Elon Musk’s AI assistant Grok which provided evidence that Miller, Devine and Pool are wrong because they are exaggerating “non-cooperation as surrender, ignoring federalism.”
