Miller and his wife, podcaster Katie Miller, appear to have quietly fled the neighborhood in recent weeks. Neighbors say they were spotted moving out, and the house officially hit the market on October 7, according to ARLnow. The exit comes after several rounds of peaceful chalk protests on the sidewalk outside their home, with messages like “Stephen Miller is destroying democracy,” “stop the kidnapping,” and “no white nationalism” scrawled in bold letters.

While the chalk eventually washed away, the tension apparently didn’t. Katie Miller lashed out on social media: “To the ‘Tolerant Left’ who spent their day trying to intimidate us in the house where we have three young children: We will not back down. We will not cower in fear. We will double down. Always, For Charlie.”

    “To the ‘Tolerant Left’ who spent their day trying to intimidate us in the house where we have three young children: We will not back down. We will not cower in fear. We will double down. Always, For Charlie.”

    Ok. Who wants to help unravel this because it is a doozy.

    • Tolerant Left: I guess we are back to emotional appeals and centralism? That ship has sailed, Fascist.

    • Intimidate us in the house where they have three young children: crazy that they think this is acceptable for minorities.

    • Double down: you didn’t and won’t need us to do something you would always do. Double down would mean staying at home. Stephen Miller I am sure has around the clock security.

    • Charlie: Is this an a reference from the attack by the conservative Mormon community? How odd. Perhaps he is suggesting Mormons are intimidating him with chalk messages on the sidewalk?

        I guess it’s technically true since they fled in (irrational) fear.

        People with chalk: “Please stop doing what you’re doing. It’s objectively wrong and we don’t like it.”

        The Millers: “Help! We’re under attack! Run away! Run away! Flee for your lives!”

        People with chalk: “Whoa, what’s in this stuff?”

                I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don’t have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you stop making me imagine the already disgusting Stephen Miller in increasingly gross situations now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

            Well, whatever works, but I can’t believe we’ve overlooked something so simple. This entire time, all we had to do is use opioid chalk to ward off fascists like salt for evil spirits? Count me in. I’ll just make sure to wear a respirator and gloves. Bonus points if encampments form near the wards to scrape them up periodically.

        I’m sure a bunch of them called the police. Letting Ezra Benson be such a big part of church leadership really showed their true colors. Same with Oaks. He’ll play the “religious freedom” card to try to let the Mormon church have a legal and political path to get greater grip on Utah, Idaho, and Arizona.

          Oh, I’m an ex-Mormon, I know. It’s bad. In my opinion, the true colors should have been apparent since Smith, and especially Young. They’ve got themselves a full theocracy over there. Which is really fucking bad.

    People should keep chalking until Miller is holed up inside a bunker. Then circle it with chalk and salt, so that he can’t ever leave his crypt.

    No idea where they got the idea I’m tolerant. I am the exact fucking opposite of tolerant.

    Reminds me of my MAGA neighbor calling the cops on me because I called him a fascist and his wife a fat, froggy, little Nazi.

    Confront these people. Their little echo chambers tell them their behavior and flags are normal. Show your fucking disapproval.

      This. I never claimed to be tolerant of hateful bigots. They think just because I’m tolerant of people they deem as deviant, that they deserve the same respect and deference for their hate? Fuck no, and fuck you.

      (Not ‘you’ in particular, but ‘you’ as in a hypothetical reich-wing dipshit demanding my tolerance)

    Stephen Miller went a step further, calling the chalk messages “terroristic threats” during an appearance on The Sean Hannity Show. The home listing paints a very different picture from the chaos the Millers described: six bedrooms, 6.5 baths, and “luxury living at its finest,” all wrapped in “comprehensive security.” What’s less clear is how a man with no private-sector resume, no known business ventures, and no discernible talent outside of writing xenophobic policy memos, ended up in a multimillion-dollar property in one of Arlington’s wealthiest enclaves.

      six bedrooms, 6.5 baths

      There was nothing that could be considered a threat in those messages at all.

      Unless you consider anyone you don’t know knowing where you live a threat. Which is true of absolutely everywhere on the planet if you ever order a delivery of any kind. You almost certainly don’t know your UPS, FedEx, or Amazon delivery drivers, and they obviously have your name and address.

        Kinda makes sense. Separate bedrooms and bathrooms for his wife already brings the tally to 2. I’m sure the kids never want to see him, so add however many bathrooms so they can avoid his ugly mug. I mean, imagine what that thing looks like in the morning when it oozes out of its vat?

    Bro was scared off by some innocent, very mild chalk writing? lol Writing the most bland, generic, milquetoast things imaginable on the sidewalk is not meant to intimidate, Katie. If they wanted to intimidate you and your husband, they would have come with something much more substantial than that.

    “We will not back down!!”

    (immediately leaves and puts their house up for sale. )

          Do you think that Stephen Miller is going to advertise that…? Not a logical nor a tough guy thing to do. It’s not like they told anyone they moved because of the chalk either.

    Queer kids endure slurs hurled at them by groups of adults holding “God Hates F-gs” signs; while Stephen Miller sees two requests and one opinion written in chalk and sells his house. Tell me you grew up in a gated community without telling me you grew up in a gated community.
