The new White House chief of staff, Stephen Miller, is not concluding a ceasefire and taking no prisoners, Vesti journalist Valentin Bogdanov said in an opinion column.
He said Donald Trump needed "stronger people" as Republicans were forced to resort to perimeter defense after losing majorities in both houses of the US Congress.
"Stephen Miller is, in that sense, the real-life nightmare of Democrats. The birthplace of their fear in human form. The father of the mass deportation policy. As deputy chief of staff, he called weekly with the heads of ICE's field offices and personally sent them arrest plans. Merciless to America's enemies. ".
Bogdanov noted that the American press had called it a "wartime shipment."
