“Stevie, stick to writing fascist speeches,” Law & Order: Organized Crime star Christopher Meloni wrote to former Trump White House Director of Speechwriting Stephen Miller today on Twitter. Earlier Miller, who allegedly helped write Donald Trump’s Jan. 6 speech, had called the actor “the guy with the most unwatchable Law & Order spin-off” and “a very angry — and very ignorant — far-left ideologue” for making fun of Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO).
Over the weekend, Boebert had tweeted, “Two Words: Let’s Go Brandon!” to which Meloni — noting that Boebert actually used three words — countered, “There’s gotta be a Stupid Prize gop reps are competing for”.
But it turns out Boebert was employing a bit or irony and mocking a miscue by President Biden, who said in in a speech to auto workers on Friday, “Let me start with two words: Made in America.” Biden’s flub was also skewered on Saturday Night Live this weekend, earning the coveted opening slot on Weekend Update.
Miller fired back at the Law & Order star, maintaining, “You publicly owned yourself while denigrating a Member of Congress,” and suggesting, “The classy and decent move would be to delete the tweet and apologize.”
Meloni admitted that “bc I’m not up on everything Biden, I missed the ‘joke,’ ” before pointing out that “the cong rep is so reliably ignorant her tweet wud make complete sense.”
