Former Breitbart Editor: Stephen Miller is a white supremacist. I know, I was one too.

(CNN) — She was already a racist when she took a publishing job in Washington, DC. But when she became a reporter for Breitbart News, Katie McHugh says she was taken to new depths of hate with the help of Stephen Miller.
***
McHugh was a willing acolyte of Miller who she says further radicalized her.

“I was a white nationalist,” she says. “Whatever you want to call it – white nationalist, white supremacist. But that part [of me] is dead.”
***
She says she is doing this as part of her own journey to healing and repentance for the life she used to live and the people she hurt.

With publishers mostly pushing a one-sentence-per-paragraph rule, it is hard to give anything like a summary in only four paras. This woman was basically groomed to be a white supremacist by a Trmp ally -- who is himself a blatant white supremacist. No GOPer has ever called for Miller to exit.

And he was Jewish. His parents were Jewish. Our grandparents were Jewish.

You never met a more xenophobic person than my cousin.

He was unbearable.

His parents/my uncle and aunt were Communists in the 1930's. My theory is that their son/my cousin went 180 degrees away from them raising him as a red diaper baby.
