Stephen Miller's family should be safe in their own home.
But a radical activist targeted them just 24 hours after Charlie Kirk's assassination.
And a Democrat judge put Stephen Miller's family in danger with this sick decision.
Activist posts Miller's home address with "I'm watching you" threat
Barbara Wien, a 66-year-old retired "peace studies" academic, blanketed White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller's Arlington, Virginia neighborhood with flyers on September 11.¹
The flyers featured Miller's photo with a red circle and cross through it, declared "NO NAZIS IN NOVA," and included his exact home address plus a QR code linking to the activist group Arlington Neighbors United for Humanity.²
Wien then walked directly past the Millers' home and made deliberate eye contact with Miller's wife, podcaster Katie Miller, who was on the front porch.³
Secret Service surveillance footage captured Wien making an "I'm watching you" gesture by pointing her index and middle fingers to her eyes, then pointing directly at Katie Miller.⁴
This happened exactly 24 hours after the September 10 assassination of Charlie Kirk, a close friend of the Miller family.⁵
The timing wasn't coincidental.
Two judges and a Soros-backed prosecutor block FBI investigation
The FBI sought a warrant to search Wien's phone to determine if she lied to investigators and whether she's part of a larger coordinated group targeting Miller and his family.⁶
Magistrate Judge Lindsey Vaala denied the FBI's warrant request twice – first on Wednesday and again on Thursday last week.⁷
Vaala contributed to Barack Obama's and Joe Biden's presidential campaigns before her 2022 appointment to the bench.⁸
The situation gets worse.
Arlington County Commonwealth's Attorney Parisa Dehghani-Tafti actively sided with the defense against the FBI investigation.⁹
Dehghani-Tafti's campaigns received over $515,000 from George Soros-linked groups – $325,000 from Democracy PAC II and $190,000 from Justice and Public Safety PAC.¹⁰
Her Facebook page features posts critical of Stephen Miller and the Trump administration, and she follows Arlington Neighbors United for Humanity on Instagram – the same activist group Wien promoted in the doxxing flyers.¹¹
Virginia State Police initially obtained a warrant from Judge Judith Wheat on October 1 and seized Wien's phone.¹²
But Dehghani-Tafti intervened, persuading the state judge to amend the warrant to limit the search and block information sharing with the FBI.¹³
Virginia officials describe unprecedented prosecutor obstruction
Richard Cullen, counselor to Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin, explained the alarming nature of Dehghani-Tafti's actions.¹⁴
"A prosecutor is usually on the same team as the investigators trying to make a case," Cullen stated. "But in this case, it's the opposite. She's been stymying the investigation, it appears."¹⁵
"In all my years, I've never seen anything like the way this case is being handled," said an investigator involved with the case.¹⁶
State and federal law enforcement officials say the original warrant approval was routine – the sharp contrast came only when partisan Democrat judges and prosecutors got involved.¹⁷
This wasn't Wien's first attack on the Millers.
Court documents revealed Wien wrote about the couple: "His wife sits their smugly swilling wine on their patio, while her husband orders the arrest of more and more of our Muslim, Arab American, and Hispanic brothers and sisters."¹⁸
"My Showing Up For Racial Justice (SURJ) chapter in N. Virginia intends to make his life hell," Wien wrote. "We have set up a carefully vetted Signal group."¹⁹
Pattern of leftist doxxing against Miller and Trump officials
This marks the second major doxxing campaign targeting Miller.
In 2018, left-wing journalist David Klion spread Miller's cell phone number on Twitter after obtaining it from Splinter News, declaring "This is war."²⁰
Klion defended his actions by claiming Miller's position as a "powerful" official made him "fair game" for doxxing.²¹
The intimidation campaign forced the Millers to abandon their Arlington home.
They moved their family – including three young children – into taxpayer-subsidized military housing on a secure base.²²
Other senior Trump administration officials have been forced to relocate to military bases following similar harassment campaigns and the Charlie Kirk assassination.²³
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem moved to Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling after facing "a surge in death threats and vicious doxxing" when a media outlet published her Washington, D.C. apartment address.²⁴
Dehghani-Tafti's radical resistance agenda comes full circle
Dehghani-Tafti publicly outlined her "resistance" strategy at an Arlington Senior Democrats gathering in November 2024.²⁵
"The resistance doesn't look like marches any more – a march can be weaponized against us, and it doesn't do very much," she declared. "You need three-and-a-half percent of the population constantly, consistently disrupting things."²⁶
She explicitly called for new tactics to "stymie Republicans eager to impose the national agenda on areas like Arlington."²⁷
Now she's putting those words into action by blocking law enforcement from investigating someone who posted Miller's home address and threatened his wife one day after Kirk's assassination.
Virginia law makes it a Class 1 misdemeanor to publish someone's name or photo with their residential address when done with intent to coerce, intimidate, or harass them.²⁸
Federal doxxing statutes provide additional criminal liability.²⁹
But partisan Democrat judges and prosecutors are protecting the activist who violated these laws.
A White House official explained the impossible situation Trump administration figures face: "The position of the judge and the justice system in Northern Virginia is, Stephen Miller deserves this, so it shouldn't be investigated."³⁰
"A lot of administration officials feel it's a problem that you have to live in Virginia or D.C. or Maryland," a White House official added. "But the criminal justice system will not protect you and your family."³¹
The Miller doxxing case exposes how far left-wing officials will go to protect political intimidation campaigns against Trump administration figures – even when those campaigns occur just 24 hours after a conservative leader's assassination.
