“The Day of Fate” and Stephen Miller 2026-11-08T21:10:57-05:00 Jim Meisner Jr.

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

As Stephen Miller, (R – Racist), assumes his new position as White House Chief of Staff, he does so on Nov. 9: Schicksalstag — “The Day of Fate.” A Nazi holiday.

Schicksalstag, “Day of Fate” or “Day of Destiny,” has repeatedly coincided with decisive moments in German history.

1918: In the waning days of WW I, amid Germany’s crushing defeat, Kaiser Wilhelm II abdicated and Philipp Scheidemann proclaimed the first Weimar Republic at the Reichstag.

1923: Adolf Hitler’s Nazi party launched the failed Munich Beer Hall Putsch attempting to overthrow the Weimar government.

1938: The Nazi regime orchestrated Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass, a brutal, state-sponsored antisemitic pogrom in Germany and Austria.

Over Nov. 8-9, 1938, the government arrested tens of thousands of men and turned a blind eye to the organized burning and looting of thousands of Jewish properties and synagogues. More than 100 people were murdered in the first night.

Members of a religious minority were systematically stripped of their rights and property. And it was all perfectly legal or approved by the elected Hitler government – carrying out the will of the people.

Perhaps too many Americans don’t know the specifics of the Night of the Broken Glass. Perhaps they are ignorant of the history of Fascism in Europe.

Miller is certainly aware of the significance of Nov. 9, and he chose this day to celebrate his consolidation of power.

“The church has an unconditional obligation to the victims of any ordering society, even if they do not belong to the Christian community.” ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Miller, like Joseph Goebbels, in his fanatical devotion to his deranged leader, will do anything to spread his message of hate. He has spent years dehumanizing others and creating policies that hurt the weak and abuse minorities.

Like the deranged Fuhrer before him, Donald Trump is hunkered down in his bunker focusing on fantasies and construction projects.

As Chief of Staff, Miller will be in a safer position to claim executive privilege when asked by the new Congress to explain his illegal policies.
Of course, there will be a new Congress in January after a massive blue wave elected majorities in the House, Senate and across the country.

Once again Christian voters ignored the words of Jesus and voted for Republicans and the most un-Christian, anti-Jesus public policies in modern history.

Jesus calls his followers to care for and protect children, widows, orphans, aliens and strangers.

Miller and Republican policies have attacked exactly these people for the past two years, and millions of Americans repudiated the politicians who perpetrated this assault.

Trump in turn promoted the architect of American evil to the highest possible post. Miller will be the gatekeeper and enforcer for an increasingly erratic narcissist criminal facing scrutiny and accountability from a Congress sent to Washington D.C. with a mandate from the American people.

Nov. 9 may be Miller’s Day of Fate, but his day of accountability is still to come.
