Newsom “Congratulates” Miller On Voldemort Casting

The Daily Beast reports:

The Harry Potter reboot series has yet to announce who will play Voldemort, but Gavin Newsom has a casting suggestion. On Thursday, the California governor seized an opportunity to drag White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, likening him to Harry Potter antagonist Lord Voldemort.

On June 10, the governor’s press office reposted two TikToks likening Trump to Emperor Palpatine from the Star Wars franchise. Palpatine, who appears in six Star Wars films, is a murderous dictator who remains in power through legal loopholes.

Meanwhile, Voldemort—portrayed by Ralph Fiennes in the original series—is a eugenicist cult leader who commits mass murder after going mad with power and who, like Miller, sports a bald head.

Congrats, @StephenM! https://t.co/19aaXJJvlK

Wild that ABC fired @TerryMoran for simply stating that this person is a world-class hater https://t.co/7utJJYZR9b
