Do you recall Miles Taylor? Once a figure in the White House during Trump’s initial term, he gained notoriety for anonymously penning op-eds for liberal news outlets, positioning himself as a member of the so-called ‘resistance’ within the administration.
Recently, Taylor made an appearance on MSNBC, where he seemed to sound the alarm among left-leaning audiences, suggesting that Trump might begin indiscriminately arresting his political adversaries. It’s a curious stance, given that similar tactics were frequently employed against Trump and his allies by the left for years.
In a bid to clarify his position, Taylor vehemently asserted that he is not a traitor, as if that would quell any lingering doubts about his past actions.
It’s almost astonishing how amnesiac some in this political landscape appear to be, conveniently forgetting the recent history of aggressive tactics employed against Trump and other Republicans. Who could forget the FBI’s dramatic raid on Roger Stone’s home, complete with a CNN camera crew to ensure maximum embarrassment?
Now, those who once orchestrated such spectacles feign surprise at the potential repercussions. Suddenly, there’s a newfound concern for fairness.
Here’s a glimpse of Taylor’s comments, as shared by Jason Cohen on Twitter/X:
“Look, umm — uh — uh — I am — I am reasonably confident I did not commit treason against the — uh — United States of America.”
“Whether it’s going against me or Attorney General James or Adam Schiff — they want to go shine a light on these people and their lives and follow them as long as possible to find the traffic infraction that they can lord over them to make their lives very, very difficult.”
“And make no mistake — this is not for show.”
“The president is under enormous pressure from the MAGA base to put these people in handcuffs.”
“It’s why for years he talked about locking them up. They now want to see it. And I’m telling you — they are going to find it.”
“One of these newscasts … we’re going to be reporting sort of breathlessly that one of these people on this list has been put in handcuffs, has been picked up and is in detention.”
“We are going to cross that Rubicon during the Trump presidency. It brings me no joy to forecast that.”

Isn’t it rich? Everything the left fears Trump might do has already been executed against him. Do they genuinely believe no one is keeping track of these antics?
