Yep. There are split duties here. Miller broadcasts undisguised bloodlust to the base, openly relishing the sadism and cruelty of ICE's paramilitary warfare against Americans on Fox News. Vance sells it to non-MAGA Republicans and independents by speaking piously about law enforcement under siege.
Excellent piece. Though I expect Miller to continue what is mostly his role—with notable exceptions—of going on Fox to tell Republicans exactly what Donald Trump wants them to say.
It's now very clear that JD Vance is consciously taking on the role of putting a softer face on Stephen Miller's fascism. Vance is becoming chief propagandist for ICE's violent paramilitary warfare against Americans.

"Vance’s position is that even if they’re doing things by the book, they’re nonetheless here illegitimately. Period. We’ve seen this in other contexts: In 2024, he claimed that those 'dog-eating' Haitians were also here illegally. Most were here lawfully under a form of humanitarian protection."
