POLICY WIRE — Washington, D.C. — Former Justice Department officials have raised concerns over the recent appearance of Stephen Miller, a top Trump adviser, at an FBI training session focused on domestic terrorism. The event, which took place last week, has drawn scrutiny due to Miller’s personal connection to the subject matter and his role in the administration’s broader strategy against political violence.
Mitchell, who was briefed on the meeting, revealed that Miller emphasized the personal stakes behind the administration’s counterterrorism efforts, citing the 2025 assassination of his friend, conservative leader Charlie Kirk. He urged federal agents to take all threats seriously, regardless of the target, including public figures, family members, or campus speakers. The FBI official said this aligns with a larger push to proactively address potential mass-casualty events by investigating threats before they escalate into violence.

The training, attended by FBI assistant special agents in charge and representatives from other law enforcement agencies, centered around the White House’s National Security Presidential Memorandum-7, which mandates a coordinated national strategy against domestic terrorism. While the FBI defended the event as appropriate given Miller’s role as a homeland security adviser, critics argue that his involvement raises questions about the separation between political influence and law enforcement operations.
