NY Daily: Santa Monica Residents Wonder How Stephen Miller Came About
Stephen Miller: What went wrong?
Residents of Santa Monica, Calif. are now openly baffled by how their left-leaning beachfront city managed to produce Miller — a White House senior advisor who helped craft President Trump’s travel bans and spent his Sunday spreading unverified voter fraud accusations on political TV shows.
“Please tell me #StephenMiller's creepy power trip is only one-way. Santa Monica doesn't exactly need him back here,” local singer-songwriter Julie Silver tweeted Sunday after Miller made his rounds on morning shows.
Other Twitter users claimed to know Miller back in his high school days — and knew that he’d turn out to be trouble.

Miller penned an op-ed for the Santa Monica Outlook when he was just 16, in which he complained about “rampant political correctness” at his high school. He particularly took issue with Hispanic students, and the Spanish language, becoming part of his daily routine.

He also slammed the school’s promotion of safe sex for its students, calling it “statutory rape,” and criticized an LGBT club on campus for helping to “foster” homosexuality.
Another objection: The school had invited “a Muslim leader” to speak about Islam

Holy crap! So that's why I get a creepy Hannibal Lecter vibe when I see him!

California public schools have had their budgets slashed so severely that they don't meet expectations, therefore playing into the hands of those who want to privatize public schools.
Miller is a prime example of the results of this mad budget slashing of public school budgets!!
