    | Stephen Miller: He could be your next attorney general and, if not
    | that, get a Cabinet-level role to greatly influence immigration
    | policy.
    |
    | He was the architect of Trump's most controversial immigration
    | plans in the first term -- including family separation -- and has
    | written and spoken extensively about unprecedented plans to detain,
    | purge and punish undocumented immigrants if put back in charge. He's
    | eager to test the boundaries of what courts and the military can do
    | to make this happen fast.
    | Miller currently heads a nonprofit dedicated to suing the Biden
    | administration and promoting "America First" causes, and has been
    | leading efforts to recruit an army of right-wing lawyers to staff a
    | MAGA-dominated executive branch.
    | Carlson told Axios that Miller would be his first choice to lead
    | the Justice Department: "He's a serious person and he understands
    | how the system works."

    Will Mike Pompeo be offered an opportunity to succeed Tony Blinken
    at State.GOV?
