I am a little disappointed in Miller's apology to the Accoster. According to The Guardian article, Jim the Accoster asked about '...what the bill would do to the racial composition of immigrants to the US...', to which Miller replied, "That is one of the most outrageous, insulting, ignorant and foolish things said you’ve ever said." Miller stated a fact, so there was no need for an apology!
Jim the Accoster is so full of himself, a self righteous, socialist turd, that if he ever got a needle, he would blow up, killing many around him. His ego is so large, I'm not sure how anyone can fit into the same room with him! He IS CNN! Loud, obnoxious, lacking in intellect and integrity.
The only immigrants mentioned at the dedication in 1886 were the “illustrious descendants of the French nobility” who fought on behalf of the United States against Britain during the American Revolution.
Emma Lazarus’s poem only belatedly became synonymous with the Statute of Liberty.
Barry Moreno, a historian of the statue for the National Park Service, recalled that it “was never built for immigrants.”
“It was,” he recalled, “built to pay tribute to the United States of America, the Declaration of Independence, American democracy, and democracy throughout the world. It honored the end of slavery, honored the end of all sorts of tyranny and also friendship between France and America.”
Only later, he added, “letters were written home, word of mouth, taught people that you would see this wonderful goddess in New York Harbor when you arrived in America to welcome you.”
Jim Acosta is an activist provocateur, not a journalist. He doesn’t ask questions so much as argues, interrupts, gives speeches and over talks presenters.

Yes. I just watched the clip and that was evident. What’s surprising is that the other members of the enemy press let this douchebag get away with hogging so much time.
On a network filled with stupid people Jim Acosta tops them all.
I want Trump to yank CNN’s credentials. That asshole acosta didn’t ask a question. He made a speech.
Jim Acosta is a big whinny baby who isn’t used to people putting himself in his place.
Gosh, I sure loved that spar. CNN looked like a jackass and Miller creamed him.
To a liberal, the constitution is simply words written by old white men and can be ignored or changed at will, but an inscription on a French donated statue is wisdom for all ages.
Thanks for the link.
Watching it, I wanted to say, “Shut up, Jim Acosta!”
If I had skills, I’d put that on the often-posted graphic of the woman with her hands to her ears, screaming, “Shut up, Obama!”, just replacing Obama with Jim Acosta.
Fills my heart with JOY unspeakable, 8 long years of this.
Finally someone will stand up to these slack-jawed, greasy, scum bags.
He apologized to keep the higher ground.
The apology was really one more chance to put Acosta down by apologizing and then saying in essence that Acosta had been outrageous. Also preempts people muddying the waters asking him, asking Sarah if Miller should apologize. Miller by apologizing in that “Ok sorry if I was hard on you but you were an idiot” fashion reinforced his own position.
The goateed, round horn-rimmed glasses Vladimir Lenin wannabe, Glenn Thrush, and sidekick Jim Acosta, stopped being journalists a long time ago. They, like many in their profession are just Propagandists for the far Left agenda. It was an absolute joy watching Stephen Miller take these biased Leftist masquerading as journalists to the woodshed.
I was yelling that (shut up, Acosta!), the entire time I watched it.
BEST Acosta take down meme of the day....click pic.twitter link...
Sniveling @Acosta trying to command the White House briefing, Stephen Miller shuts him down! #PressBriefing #GoodJob pic.twitter.com/21whvhVU81— AmERIKAn Girl! 🇺🇸 (@ms_erika74) August 2, 2017
Thanks for the historical background information; really pertinent to the discussion on green cards that begins today.
I realize now that the Liberals co-opted the Statue of Liberty and wove it into their own agenda for so long they thought they owned it. They can’t believe this construct they made is coming unglued.
Again the schadenfreude...liberal tears = balm to my spirit following all the damage Liberals have inflicted on our Nation.
Acosta is a very ignorant man. He must have been public-skooled. Does he not know the difference between the words of the Constirution and the words of a starry-eyed 14 Year old immigrant Jewish child?
Stephen Miller proves knowledge commands a stage.
Miller Time should take over the press briefings. Edge of my seat watching a master performance.
He is the caliber of linguist needed in the daily presser.
Encouraging that they melt so easily. When the subject of ‘anchor babies’ comes to the forefront, they will melt as if they’d been hit full in the face with our bright, warm Texas sunlight
BTW, my grandparents (dad side) were of German descent. They migrated from ...hold your hat - Odessa,RUSSIA, Russia, Russia. Like all others, they had to learn English. They spent unknown time on Ellis Island before moving westward as American citizens.
Morning has broken and so has the dam discovered a crack.
Well said! Agree, my grandparents, also, came through Ellis Island and NEVER asked for or received public assistance!
Acosta’s behavior was obnoxious.
