White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller tore into foreign fraudsters and scammers ripping off Americans during a White House roundtable on cybercrime.
Miller said that the Trump Administration has “declared cyber warfare against the cyber criminals” under the President’s March executive order, titled “Combating Cybercrime, Fraud, and Predatory Schemes Against Americans.”
“With the executive order that you signed, for the first time ever, we are using offensive cyber capabilities to dismantle, disrupt, and disable these foreign scam centers,” Miller said.
Miller went on to highlight the “common theme” with Trump’s handling of various issues, including “welfare fraud where we’re getting ripped off by these refugees and foreign scammers” and “cybercrime where you have entire foreign economies that are propped up on stealing from American seniors.”
“What you’re saying is America is not a pile of treasure for other countries and other people and other scammers all around the world to loot for themselves. You’re protecting American wealth for American people and American families in a way no leader has ever done before. Thank you, sir,” Miller said to President Trump.

Everybody knows the stories. It’s affected almost every family in America. Your grandmother, your grandfather, your parents, they get a phone call saying a loved one has been arrested. Wire $10,000 right away to get them out of jail.
Except nobody was arrested, nobody’s in jail, and the money goes to a foreign scam center. And then that pension, that retirement account that senior citizen has saved for their entire lives is gone, and then you have senior citizens who were going to be living their golden years are now living in poverty. And for years and years and years, this went unmet and unanswered.
With the executive order that you signed, for the first time ever, we are using offensive cyber capabilities to dismantle, disrupt, and disable these foreign scam centers. That has never been done before, and then we’re working with foreign governments and the Department of Justice to bring these individuals into our prison system to face real jail time here in the United States for their crimes against the American people.
So, you have effectively declared cyber warfare against the cyber criminals, and that is saving the pensions, the life savings, the retirement accounts, the earnings of countless American citizens. Not to mention protecting people from sextortion, from child trafficking, from human trafficking. So, we’ve talked so much, Mr. President, about how you’ve brought crime to record lows, violent crime to record lows, the murder rate to the lowest in 125 years, but now you’re bringing cybercrime to the lowest level since this has existed as an industry.
It’s just one more example of how you have put the American people first. You’ve put the American people’s safety first. I’ll make one more point on this. There’s a common theme in all of the challenges that you have systemically tackled and solved, whether it’s the trade deficit where we’re getting ripped off by foreign countries, whether it’s welfare fraud where we’re getting ripped off by these refugees and foreign scammers, or it’s cybercrime where you have entire foreign economies that are propped up on stealing from American seniors.
What you’re saying is America is not a pile of treasure for other countries and other people and other scammers all around the world to loot for themselves. You’re protecting American wealth for American people and American families in a way no leader has ever done before. Thank you, sir.
