Article snippet: The New York Daily News is mocking the White House over senior adviser Stephen Miller’s comments during Wednesday's press briefing, at which Miller debated immigration policies and got into a heated exchange over the writing on the base of the Statue of Liberty. “Grab Them By Their Liberty,” reads the banner headline of the New York tabloid, referencing President Trump’s infamous comments about women that came out during the 2016 presidential campaign. “Trump declares war on legal immigration as White House big disses symbol of hope,” a secondary headline reads. Trump unveiled a plan earlier Wednesday that would restrict the level of legal immigration into the U.S. and impose new requirements to bring in more “skilled” immigrants. Miller had a tense exchange with CNN’s Jim Acosta during the press briefing Wednesday over the immigration proposal, in which Miller suggested the poem welcoming immigrants at the base of the statue wasn’t very important because it was added after the statue was installed. "I can honestly say: I am shocked at your statement that you think only people from Great Britain and Australia would know English. It reveals your cosmopolitan bias to a shocking degree — this is an amazing moment," he said, speaking over Acosta at the briefing.
