‘Impossible To Lobby’: Stephen Miller Spells Trouble For The Swamp’s Corporate Insiders

WASHINGTON — Stephen Miller isn’t easily swayed by Washington’s chattering classes, and he put lobbyists on notice with a new memo this week about White House access.

The new chief of staff’s memo, obtained by The Daily Wire, outlined a new process for staff who are engaging with lobbyists and put forward much stricter guardrails than existed under Miller’s predecessor, Susie Wiles. The new rules haven’t come as a shock to D.C.’s insider class, who told Politico Miller is known for sticking to his beliefs no matter how much he’s lobbied by outside interests.

“He’s impossible to lobby, no one can do it, not even the people that you would think are closest,” one unnamed lobbyist told the outlet. “I think he’s more reasonable than he’s being portrayed, but he’s not swayed by lobbying.”

“He doesn’t operate based on relationships. He operates based on policy outcomes that will advance the president’s agenda,” Ballard Partners lobbyist Hunter Morgen said.

Miller, who lobbyists told Politico doesn’t work based on “relationship-based favors,” said in his memo that staff will not have free rein to meet with outside interests seeking to sway policy.

“White House staff must receive prior approval from the Office of White House Counsel for meetings on the White House complex with registered lobbyists related to government policy,” the memo states. “For any questions regarding industry outreach, please consult the Office of Public Liaison (OPL), which will continue to serve as the primary point of contact for engagement with external stakeholders.”

“No President in history has fought more relentlessly, selflessly or courageously for the American People than President Trump,” it says. “Following his example, White House staff are expected to dedicate their time unwaveringly to the working people of the nation.”

Trump announced Miller’s promotion in a Truth Social post last Friday, describing him as “one of my most trusted advisors.”

“Susie Wiles, who has done an outstanding job, will be moving over to the Trump Political Operation,” Trump said at the time. “I want to thank her for her service as Chief of Staff — She has done a great job!”

During an event the next evening at Mar-a-Lago, Miller promised that he will stand by the president no matter what.

“It was the privilege of a lifetime to join President Trump all the way back in 2015 when he came down that Golden Escalator,” Miller said. “And let me tell you, if it wasn’t for President Trump, the United States of America would not exist right now.”

“This man saved America,” Miller added. “He saved our military from collapse. He saved our economy from destruction. He saved our border from annihilation. And he saved our country from threats at home and abroad, which would’ve been the end of the American Dream forever.”
