California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) accused President Donald Trump of using Kristi Noem as a “scapegoat” after her sudden removal as Homeland Security secretary, instead pointing the finger at the White House’s hardline deportation policy architect Stephen Miller.

Trump fired Noem late Thursday and nominated Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) to replace her after reportedly being angered by testimony she gave earlier in the week before the Senate Judiciary Committee. During the hearing, Noem was grilled by Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) and claimed the president had commissioned a $220 million advertising campaign designed to encourage undocumented migrants to self-deport.

Newsom seized on the shake-up while speaking in New Hampshire during a tour promoting his new book, Young Man in a Hurry. Appearing on-stage with Gen Z liberal influencer Jack Cocchiarella hours after the ouster, the governor was asked about Noem’s firing but quickly redirected attention toward Miller, who serves as White House deputy chief of staff.

“Let’s be honest here. The dark heart of this administration is not known, it’s Stephen Miller and he needs to be next. And it’s really true,” Newsom said.

1. They both need to go.

2. So True

In a world of uncertainty Gavin Newsom nails reality to the wall—Noem is just a Stephen Miller wannabe, a power-hungry loser.

By comparison, the current POTUS is a professional salesman, a shameful exploiter of those who trust him. Not having any moral guardrails, he can’t resist stealing from his employer like a common criminal. He can’t resist sell ketchup popsicles to a woman wearing white gloves, as the tired old expression says. But still the #2 salesperson behind Obama. Or maybe #3 if Bill Clinton is considered.

Newsom is genuine, his words carry the potency of the truth. He isn’t just a salesman, he’s a statesman (pardon the tradition gender terminology). He just needs to resist the hard sell, let his power lie in the potency of truth.

4. Absolutely. But Newsom also knows the felon won't ever let Miller go.
