Ex-Trump White House press secretary seeks restraining order against Rep. Max Miller
Miller faces a restraining-order request and renewed scrutiny over abuse allegations he has denied.

SOURCE CHECK
TAP FOR WHYThe New York Post is an established national publisher with named authors and reporting, though its tabloid style warrants some caution. The story attributes allegations and responses and identifies records and court documents as sources.
- Track record — Established national newspaper with a substantial record of reporting.
- Editorial standards — Professional newsroom, though its tabloid presentation calls for caution.
- Author attribution — A named reporter is credited.
- Source type — National news publisher.
The report attributes the abuse claims to the people making them and includes Miller’s denials and recorded remarks. It also notes that the reason for the restraining-order request was unclear, but the article offers limited independent assessment of the allegations.
HOW WE SCORE ↗The article includes allegations from Grisham and Emily Moreno and Miller’s denials and recorded response. However, it does not explain why Grisham sought the order, and the allegations receive more detail than Miller’s defense.
- Counterarguments presented — Miller’s denials and his response in an interview are included.
- Source diversity — The report refers to court documents, police reports, an interview, and statements from involved people.
- Omitted context — The reason for the new restraining-order request was not known, leaving a central question unanswered.
- Loaded language — Some vivid descriptions appear, but the story generally attributes claims rather than asserting them as established fact.
The article uses a largely reportorial frame, attributing disputed allegations and including Miller’s denials and response. Its wording is attention-grabbing in places but does not show a clear partisan direction.
- Language tone — Mostly factual attribution, with some emphatic wording such as “embattled.”
- Source selection — Includes claims, denials, and statements from multiple involved parties.
- Framing — Centers on the restraining-order request and related allegations without an evident partisan argument.
Former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham has sought a restraining order against Rep. Max Miller, after previously accusing him of abuse. Miller has denied abuse claims, and records he released included audio in which he acknowledged his ex-wife’s claims that he dumped hot water on her.
Grisham sought a restraining order against Miller, but the reason was not immediately clear. She had sued him the previous month, alleging he violated their nondisclosure agreement in a June interview. The article recounts earlier abuse allegations by Grisham and Miller’s ex-wife, Emily Moreno; Miller has denied the claims.
On Sunday, Sen. Bernie Moreno called on Miller to step down and said he was concerned for his family’s safety. Miller has so far declined to step aside from his House race. He released records that he argued would exonerate him, including audio in which he acknowledged his ex-wife’s claims that he dumped hot water on her in 2024.
