White House policy adviser Stephen Miller takes notes as President Trump holds a meeting with Republican House and Senate leadership at the White House on Sept. 5. But one religious leader took the holiday as an opportunity to send a message to a man who he said was a former congregant: presidential adviser Stephen Miller. The White House did not return a request for comment. Comess-Daniels framed Miller’s role in the White House as a potential failure of his synagogue and its teachings. Comess-Daniels pointed to the long history of Jews as refugees and said that the practice violated fundamental Jewish tenets.
