Former Trump White House aide Katie Miller nearly walked off “Piers Morgan Uncensored” on Wednesday after progressive commentator Cenk Uygur accused her of lying during a heated on-air argument about Israel and antisemitism.
The exchange began as Miller — who served as communications director for former Vice President Mike Pence and is married to Trump adviser Stephen Miller — defended criticism of New York City Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani.
“Why is it that every time someone wants to criticize Mamdani, it immediately comes back to the Jews and the anti-Israel movement instead of actually talking about his viewpoints?” Miller asked during the panel segment.
Uygur shot back, “Nobody said Jews. You just said it. You always do that. We say Israel, you say Jews. We say Israel as a government — please don’t make it about Jewish Americans — and you come back with, ‘You have to make it about Jewish Americans.’ What’s wrong with you?”
When Miller responded by calling Israel “a Jewish state” and accused Uygur of “encoding language to attack American Jews,” the host of “The Young Turks” interrupted: “No! I want Israel to be safe. Nonsense. You’re totally lying. That’s very normal for a Miller to be completely and utterly lying.”
Miller then accused Uygur of racism.
“Quite frankly, I’m really sick and tired of this racist, bigoted rhetoric that comes from people like you against my husband, against my family, and my children. I am raising Jewish children in this country,” she said.
Uygur retorted, “Who brought your children into this? What a weirdo.”
Miller turned to Piers Morgan and warned she would walk off the show if Uygur continued speaking.
“Piers, I’m gonna be done with this if you’re going to allow racist and bigoted attacks against one of your commentators,” she said.
“He inserted a line that said ‘the Millers lie.’ Is that not coded language for therefore we are Jewish? Come on, Piers. Where are you?”
Uygur dismissed her threat, mocking, “What? God, you’re so pathetic.”
The confrontation prompted political analyst Omar Baddar, who was also on the panel, to interject.
“Somebody criticizing you personally is not an antisemitic attack,” he said. “If somebody says that you are lying, that is not an attack on Jews, that is an attack on you. And just stop hiding behind identity.”
He added that accusing critics of antisemitism “is all the snowflake behavior that the right is supposedly criticizing the left for.”
Baddar also said Stephen Miller’s record as a Trump adviser could be scrutinized without invoking religion.
“Yes, Stephen Miller is a destructive force on American society. That is not an attack on Jews. That has no reference to his identity. This is an attack on him individually,” he said.
The segment ended after a visibly frustrated Katie Miller stopped speaking while Morgan attempted to steer the discussion back to policy.
The Post has sought comment from Miller and Uygur.
