The perversity of Stephen Miller channeling Joseph Goebbels cannot be overstated. The descendant of Jewish refugees from Belarus mimicking the words and attitudes of the chief propagandist of Nazi Germany is sickening. Do not turn away. Remember this. Stand up against this.

It's impossible to overstate how problematic it is for the White House to demand payouts or company stakes in the course of approving deals, hand-selecting acquirers, demanding corporate compliance or anything else.
