"Let me tell you a little secret: most New York Jews really like New York’s diversity. We like that it attracts the Mamdanis of the world. We like sharing it with people of lots of different backgrounds. That’s what makes us feel safe and happy here. Especially when they are such a mensch like him: a nice college boy, his parents are professors, he went to Bronx Science, and to a liberal arts school."

"Wolf [Glosser, Stephen Miller's 2-g-grandfather] arrived at Ellis Island on January 7, 1903. He peddled bananas in New York City and changed his name to Louis. 'One of the main things everybody wanted to do when they came to America was become Americanized,' recalled his grandson Izzy.
All their lives, the Glossers would strive to help the poor and persecuted."

"Stephen Miller is an immigration hypocrite. I know vecause I’m his uncle.
If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out.
Let me tell you a story about Stephen Miller and chain migration."
~ David S. Glosser

As the odious Stephen Miller tries to convince heartland Americans that immigrants and diversity have made New York City the enemy, it's worth remembering that he descends directly from Jewish ancestors who fled persecution and poverty for that very city.
Jean Guerrero tells the story in her book Hatemonger, excerpted at the link below.

"Fox News may present an endless stream of anti-urban fear-mongering to its viewers while it lionizes the allegedly 'real' Americans who live in rural America, but it isn’t not going to relocate its studios to rural North Dakota. Nor are the Wall Street titans going to leave the city, even if (heaven forfend) they have to pay a bit more in taxes. They will, however, keep whining."

"I’m sorry, but you are gonna have a hard time convincing liberal educated upper-middle-class Jews not to like a college-educated, left-leaning immigrant—and one who tried to make a career in the arts?! Forget about it. The guy is practically Jewish!"
