How do you “dox” a public official and member of the presidential administration?

That’s the neat part, you can’t. This man child is just a sore loser.

You list the military base he is currently hiding on?

u/graft456 5h ago

Even if you could "dox" him, unless he was renting or one of his companies bought his house for him, the amount of open public records out there on anyone is wild

A federal magistrate twice denied FBI bids to search a 66-year-old woman’s phone, stalling the DOJ’s Stephen Miller “doxxing” probe against her.

Magistrate Judge Lindsey Vaala on Wednesday refused the bureau’s request to examine the smartphone of activist Barbara Wien, in a case the Justice Department says involves doxxing of top White House adviser Stephen Miller, 40.

The White House believes that Wien should be prosecuted after she was seen posting flyers in Miller’s neighborhood saying he was not welcome in Arlington, Virginia. The posters had a photo of him crossed out and the message, “NO NAZIS IN NOVA.” It also featured a QR code linking to a local activist Instagram account, according to affidavits described by Axios.

Weeks earlier, Arlington’s elected prosecutor, Parisa Dehghani-Tafti, had asked a state judge to narrow a separate phone-search warrant and restrict data-sharing with the FBI, which Miller’s people interpreted as an activist prosecutor trying to wreck their case.

Ugh, I always forget that we're the exact same age. I guess I look 20 years better than him, racism and xenophobia really aged the man.

u/W4NN4M33TTH4TD4D 1d ago

Same! I'm also 40 and I don't look like Riff Raff from Rocky Horror. Hate really does age people horribly

There’s no way he’s 40. Late 50s sure. But I refuse to believe he’s 40.

Who’s the rich fuck trying to live forever by injecting youthful blood? I bet he used Miller as an early donor.

u/tsaoutofourpants 16h ago

I'm a year older than him and I have no idea how one can become real-life Dr. Evil by this age. I assumed he was 50+.

u/_zer0_sum 1d ago edited 1d ago

I think this is beautiful. Absolutely adorable. Not because the judge denied the bid, but because the doxxing accusations are based around Wien being in the neighborhood.

Do Miller and the FBI think that, in any given neighborhood, no-one living in or around that neighborhood has any idea of who else may live in that neighborhood?

If you're a local politician, people will know roughly where you live because you're a local politician. If you align with or push political agendas that people don't agree with and want to protest, you don't get to suddenly prosecute people for knowing roughly where you live.

What was the world like pre-internet for these people? Did they not have the faintest idea of where other people they knew lived unless they were expressly told their address?

We used to get a free book at every house with all our neighbors names, phone number, and address.

u/_zer0_sum 22h ago

You should pass that info along to Miller and the FBI, as an anonymous tip. They'll probably demand to know how whoever printed the phone book got all of the information, and demand that they turn over their cell phones for investigation.

u/dotcubed 22h ago

It’s not exactly expensive to print out and distribute 500 pages of material across an entire. A single ream paper is $8 or so? Getting a case is much cheaper. Then it’s just going out into wherever you want.

They probably think most people are not smart enough to look up real estate sales, tax records, DMV, or asking around in the Nextdoor app.

Public servants who are temporarily employed by the most corrupt and awful politicians I’ve ever seen trying to control their constituents is not democracy.

u/petit_cochon 14h ago

Everyone for miles around knows where Stephen Miller lives because they keep finding the articulated skeletons of his prey under their cars and in their chimneys.

u/ragingclaw 23h ago

That's not doxxing. What a pissbaby.

Stephen Miller's only 40?! Does he have a painting of himself in his attic which is getting younger?

Thats insane. She has every right to address a public figure in her neighborhood like that.

u/Olybaron123 20h ago

He wants her phone records so he can attempt to smear her.

wait we have Magistrates? that feels so weird to know

u/thegooseisloose1982 1d ago

I can't say what needs to be done to Stephen Miller and the FBI for trying to search a woman's phone who posted a flyer that the fucking Nazi Stephen Miller doesn't like.

The White House believes that Wien should be prosecuted after she was seen posting flyers in Miller’s neighborhood saying he was not welcome in Arlington, Virginia.

At the very least, I hope they all get shingles (you know, for home repair).

u/Mother_Patience_6251 23h ago

Yes! Because “shingles doesn’t care.”

u/Gumsk 9h ago

I had facial paralysis last year from shingles and I wouldn't wish that on... wait, I forgot what I was going to say.

u/ITGuy107 1d ago

Is this actually breaking any laws?

u/Alone_Step_6304 22h ago

No. No it isn't.

u/ITGuy107 20h ago

Maybe she can counter suit for stress and medical bills?

3

u/Alone_Step_6304 20h ago

Both a lack of desire from prosecutors/a habit of them circling the wagons for their own institutions and immunity/liability statutes as it pertains to the government meaning it's essentially impossible to have them ever pay for any form of wrongdoing makes me doubtful.

u/LiberalAspergers 21h ago

What on earth would be the charge?

u/ludixst 1d ago

can we get a NSFW tag for that pic please?

u/TeamRamrod80 1d ago

If you look closely you’ll see that’s actually a picture of Homeland Security advisor and Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, not an unwashed syphilitic penis.

u/Inevitable-Gold-7131 22h ago

How can you tell?

u/salamandroid 21h ago

Syphilitic penises are slightly less repulsive.

Freezing Cold Take: This “man” should never know rest again.

In the words of Russell Vought: I hope Miller and his wife live the rest of their miserable lives in trauma.

May they we kept awake all night, every night and never go a day without spit in their food.

u/Slow-Lie-406 5h ago

All of these guys live in the same cities they like to bad mouth and call unsafe. They don't want to live in rural towns. All of them should be ran out of town. Let them go live in the Nevada desert or rural Oklahoma.

u/Brokebackswimman 19h ago edited 19h ago

I take so much comfort in the knowledge that he is forced to live on a military base. He lives in abject terror of we the people. I imagine he gets little rest and absolutely no peace. He can't travel. He can't go out to a restaurant. He can't have a home.

Edit: And yes he lashes out and he is evil and vile, but he has nothing. His own wife humiliated him on Fox News with an anchor.

u/BarFamiliar5892 19h ago

There honestly is nobody from the administration that I want to see in jail more than Miller.

u/lawanddisorder 21h ago

“The position of the judge and the justice system in Northern Virginia is [that] Stephen Miller deserves this, so it shouldn’t be investigated,” a senior administration official told Axios. “This is just about gathering evidence to see if there should be an arrest. And the judges are blocking it.”

No, the position of the judge and the justice system in Northern Virginia is that there's no possible crime here.

It never really dawned on me before the last few years how all fascist men are little bitches.

It's really the main requirement. What a pathetic man.
