Democrat Rep. Embroiled In Firestorm After ‘Disgusting’ Attack On Stephen Miller

A Democrat congressman is facing intense backlash after making what many are calling an appalling and antisemitic comment aimed at Trump advisor Stephen Miller.

Rep. Mark Pocan (D-WI) is under fire after responding to Miller’s criticism of Democratic immigration policies by suggesting he “go back to 1930s Germany”—a comment that quickly sparked outrage across the political spectrum.

Miller, who is Jewish, had recently posted on X that New York City’s mayoral primary result—in which socialist Zohran Mamdani won the Democratic nomination—was “the clearest warning yet of what happens to a society when it fails to control migration.”

Miller’s remarks, though harsh, echoed the immigration enforcement stance that has defined much of his tenure as Trump’s top policy adviser. But it was Pocan’s reply that ignited a full-blown firestorm.

“Racist f*ck. Go back to 1930’s Germany,” Pocan wrote.

“The absolute gall of you, in all of your self-righteousness, to tell a Jewish man to go back to 1930s Germany… simply because of policy differences of opinion. Shameful behavior from a sitting representative,” one user posted.

Others called for Pocan’s resignation or censure, describing the comment as “absolutely disgusting,” “vile,” and “an inexcusable low for any elected official.” Many users also tagged Elon Musk, calling for Pocan’s account to be suspended or banned for violating X’s rules on hate speech.

Miller himself did not directly respond to Pocan’s comment.
