Stephen Miller's cousin, Alisa Kasmer, has publicly disowned him in a resurfaced emotional Facebook post in which she condemned his role as the architect of the Trump administration's hardline immigration policies. Kasmer, Miller's cousin on his father's side, recalled their childhood together, describing him as an "awkward, funny, needy middle child who loved to chase attention" but was "always the sweetest with the littlest family members." She once saw him as "young, conservative, maybe misguided, but lovable and harmless." But in her scathing post, Kasmer wrote, "I am living with the deep pain of watching someone I once loved become the face of evil. I grieve what you've become, Stephen ... I will never knowingly let evil into my life, no matter whose blood it carries"including my own."
The post was made this summer, but resurfaced this weekend after she made a new social media entry in which she revealed most of Miller's extended family had disowned him.
Drawing on their shared Jewish heritage, Kasmer highlighted the family's history of surviving persecution. "We celebrated holidays each year with the reminder to stand up and say 'never again,'" she explained. "But what you are doing breaks that sacred promise. It breaks everything we were taught."
Kasmer criticized Miller's role in developing immigration policies that set aggressive enforcement targets. Miller was among top Trump officials who established a quota of at least 3,000 ICE arrests per day, though data shows these targets were not met.
She challenged Miller's motivations, asking, "Where does this hateful obsession end? What are you trying to build besides fear? Immigrants were a part of your upbringing. Is this cruelty your way of rejecting a part of yourself?"
