"We are the storm. And our enemies cannot comprehend our strength, our determination, our resolve, our passion,"
"Our lineage and our legacy hails back to Athens, to Rome, to Philadelphia, to Monticello. Our ancestors built the cities. They produced the art and architecture. They built the industry."
"The light will defeat the dark. We will prevail over the forces of wickedness and evil,"
"We will defeat the forces of darkness and evil. And we will stand every day for what is"
Stephen Miller delivered a eulogy for Charlie Kirk that functioned as a battle cry for a state-sponsored war against perceived political foes, with Miller as key strategist. The rhetoric framed President Trump’s side as embodying pure good and opponents as irredeemably wicked and destined for destruction. Miller conscripted classical Western symbols—Athens, Rome, Philadelphia, Monticello—and invoked ancestors who built cities, art, architecture, and industry. The speech combined repetition and bludgeoning rhetoric rather than uplift, replacing nuance with binary moral absolutes. Miller celebrated power, portrayed political struggle as existential, and emphasized triumphal language: light versus dark, and inevitable victory over evil.
