You’d better stop whatever you’re doing and read this scoop while it’s still white-hot:
Stephen Miller's third-grade teacher: "He was a loner" and he ate glue https://t.co/nD97s9N50v pic.twitter.com/Gp3Uy9G0iJ

As Nikki Fiske recounted to the Hollywood Reporter’s Benjamin Svetkey:
I remember being concerned about him — not academically. He was OK with that, though I could never read his handwriting. But he had such strange personal habits. He was a loner and isolated and off by himself all the time.
At the end of the year, I wrote all my concerns — and I had a lot of them — in his school record. When the school principal had a conference with Stephen’s parents, the parents were horrified. So the principal took some white-out and blanked out all my comments. I wish I could remember what I wrote, but this was 25 years ago. I’ve taught a lot of third-graders since then. Of course, Stephen wasn’t political then — it wasn’t until later that he started to make waves.
Good thing Fiske and Svetkey crossed paths, otherwise we might never have known about Stephen Miller’s checkered past.

At least Miller only ate glue; apparently the editors at the Hollywood Reporter have been sniffing it.
Someone published this. https://t.co/9fZW3baAi8

Someone really did.

I ate Playdoh once in first grade on a dare for a Jolly Rancher. Are we seriously doing this? https://t.co/aAbXpEUtsG

Maybe not a “civil war” … but it’s pretty clear that the media have chosen a side.
Me: At least the media can't possibly get any more embarrassing.

The "journalist" had to think about this, think it was a good idea, write it, pass it on to an editor who also thought it was a good idea, and publish it.

The media have been digging their own grave for so long now, they must’ve figured they might as well keep going.
Amazing that people in Los Angeles can track down Stephen Miller’s 3rd grade teacher, but not the LA Times Barack Obama/Rashid Khalidi tape https://t.co/E8Eu3fkadP

The American media could never track down a college classmate of Obama. But we get to hear this stuff about Trump’s staffers. https://t.co/IkaLlteXCJ

Thank goodness.

Update:
It’s important to point out that it’s not just the Hollywood Reporter who’s guilty of malpractice here:
Teaching is an incredibly noble profession requiring trust & sacrifice while building up the next generation.
To take that position and turn it into a gossip column where you crap all over the KIDS you taught b/c you don't like their politics, I have nothing but disdain for you pic.twitter.com/DfeHltE5Cn— PoliMath (@politicalmath) October 10, 2018
As @politicalmath says, this is below despicable. The boy became the man, but the boy isn't responsible for the man. Exactly how sick do you have to be to violate the boy's trust? https://t.co/JZeqhzgP6D

Imagine your child. Now imagine his or her teacher dishing about them as adults to a tabloid rag in order to ruin their careers. This is beyond outrageous.
