It was great catching up with Katie Miller, wife to White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, on Capitol Hill earlier this week. She stopped by and joined us after Montana Coffee at Senator Steve Daines' (R-MT) office Wednesday morning.

Stephen Miller is one of the hardest hitting and most recognizable faces of the Trump Administration. And he's been that day since day one with President Trump. If you didn't know her already, his wife Katie Miller is a name you will quickly learn to know as well.

We got to know Katie Miller over a decade ago now when she first started as a hard-charging press secretary for Senator Daines.

We talked about her new podcast, life as a mom of 3 kids while her husband is travelling the world with President Trump, and even had some fun sharing some Montana stories with Senator Daines.

But we also talked about the serious threat facing her family. Here's an excerpt from our conversation Wednesday.

Katie Miller: "His (Stephen's) primary focus is keeping our cities, keeping America safe for Americans, for to be able to push a stroller down the street without fear of being shot. It's about making DC safe so we don't feel like you're going to be carjacked and you can bring your kids to our monuments. So many of my friends did not do that during the Biden years.

Aaron Flint: "And yet, you look at everything he's doing, you're doing to make America safe again, securing our borders. The El Diablo, this cartel operative who is forcing C-sections on women so she could traffic their children for the cartels. This was one of the latest things that was exposed. Everything you guys are doing to make America safe again, and yet you are facing so much risk to your own personal lives right now. Here's your husband, he's traveling all over the world and and yet you are specifically being threatened by these radical leftists right now. And yet you stay in the fight for this
country."

Katie Miller: "I would say the threat perspective and the threat landscape has only increased since the murder of our dear friend Charlie Kirk. And which is, you know, as you see everyone on CNN and MS-DNC saying, 'Oh, you know, we should take this time to slow down our rhetoric, and there should be a safe place for all.' It's those who have the lawn signs that say 'hate has no home here' who are the most hateful. It's those who claim to be the tolerant left are the least tolerant. You know, you come across every day...it's like, who are the people who dox us right? Who passed out flyers at the Metro and my kids parks that have our home address and have photos of my children? And what is their motivation? Why are they doing it 9:30am in the morning after Charlie was murdered? You can come to very quick conclusions for what their goals are, right? It's not because they just want to have their voice heard. It's a much more, darker, nefarious action that they're trying to have on my family. And what I say to that is- that we're not going to tolerate that. There'll be no place for that, trust me, but we are not going to sit by and have my children's lives in danger because of the actions of other people. And no no sane parent would allow that to happen, but everyone will have their day in court, I'm very sure."
