Katie Miller completely lost her cool and seemingly threatened the US citizenship of a left-wing commentator during a fiery debate on Piers Morgan Uncensored this week.
The conservative podcaster, 34, who is the wife of United States homeland security advisor Stephen Miller, was debating progressive pundit Cenk Uygur and political analyst Omar Baddar about Zohran Mamdani when things went off the rails.
'Why is it that every time someone wants to criticize Mamdani it immediately comes back to the Jews and the anti-Israel movement, instead of actually talking about his viewpoints?' Miller asked.
Uygur fired back, 'Nobody said Jews! You just said it. You always do that. We say Israel, you say Jews. We say, "Israel is a government, please don't make it about Jewish Americans," and you come back with, "You have to make it about Jewish Americans!"'
Furious with his response, Miller snapped and started repeatedly asking, "Is Israel a Jewish state? Is Israel a Jewish state? Yes or no?'
'What's wrong with you?' barked Uygur. 'So, Saudi Arabia is a Muslim state. You can criticize it all day long! There's no special protections [inaudible] for anyone who calls themselves a Jewish state or a Muslim state.'
Miller then accused Uygur of using 'coded language' to 'attack American Jews'.
Cutting Miller off mid-rant, Uygur insisted that he wanted 'Israel to be safe' before accusing Miller of 'totally lying'.

'That's very normal for a Miller to be completely and utterly lying,' he added.
Growing increasingly agitated, Miller took things further by claiming that she was the victim of 'racist attacks' from Uygur before threatening to quit the segment altogether.
'I'm really sick and tired of this racist bigoted rhetoric that comes from people like you against my husband, against my family and my children,' she said.
'I am raising Jewish children in this country,' she screeched, before Uygur cut her off and said, 'Who brought your children into this? What a weirdo!'
Miller, seemingly at her wit's end, then turned to Morgan and said, 'Piers, I'm gonna be done with this if you're going to allow racist and bigoted attacks against one of your commentators...'
Morgan tried to respond, only for Miller to cut him off and shout, 'He inserted a line that said, "the Miller's lie". Is that not coded language for therefore we are Jewish?'
She continued, 'Come on, Piers! Where are you? Where are you standing on this?'
Morgan tried to calm her, only for Miller to once again accuse not just Uygur, but also Baddar, of 'antisemitic attacks'.

Taking things even further, Miller appeared to threaten Istanbul-born Uygur's US citizenship.
'You better check your citizenship application and hope everything was [inaudible] and correct,' she said.
At this point, Baddar spoke up to put an end to her 'ridiculous' rant.
'I have to jump in here,' he said. 'Somebody criticizing you personally is not an antisemitic attack. If somebody says that you are lying, that is not an attack on Jews, that is an attack on you.'
He added, 'And just stop hiding behind identity. This is all the snowflake behaviour that the right is supposedly criticizing the left for that you're simply repeating here.'
The segment drew a mixed response, with some siding with Miller while others accused her of 'karen' behaviour.
'I never agree with @cenkuygur much, but I do agree with that statement he made. Like I always say, criticizing a government is ok and shouldn't be antisemitic at all,' commented one.
'I like Steven Miller but he shouldn’t allow his triggered wife to go on Piers or any other show,' wrote a second.
'If you can’t handle opposing views, maybe live TV isn’t for you,' a third wrote.
'This is so embarrassing to watch. What the hell is wrong with this Karen snowflake Katie Miller?' asked another.
'I like Steven Miller but he shouldn’t allow his triggered wife to go on Piers or any other show,' one viewer wrote on social media
Defending Miller, one fan wrote, 'It's becoming pretty obvious that @piersmorgan is simply clueless about what antisemitism is.'
Another wrote, 'The fact you still invite antisemites on your show is really sad.'
Miller, who has a political background, has recently forged a new career as a podcaster and political pundit.
The mother-of-three, who has been married to Trump's Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen since 2020, launched her self-titled podcast in August with Vice President JD Vance as her first guest.
Announcing the project, Miller said, 'For years, I've seen that there isn't a place for conservative women to gather online, and so I wanted to create that space.'
Miller previously served as a spokesperson for the Department of Government Efficiency under Elon Musk before departing to start her podcast.
