Law & Order spin-offs Special Victims Unit and Organized Crime actor Chris Meloni had an absolutely scathing response for former Trump advisor, speechwriter and proud White nationalist Stephen Miller when the latter tried to roast him and SVU—or maybe Organized Crime—on Twitter.
The whole thing started when Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert tweeted the phrase "Let's Go Brandon!", a well known code commonly used by Republicans for a much more vulgar phrase: "F**k Joe Biden."
Meloni responded to Boebert's tweet with derision:
"There's gotta be a Stupid Prize gop reps are competing for"

Miller was apparently quite put out by Meloni's tweet because he attempted to roast Meloni and SVU or Organized Crime in his own quote tweet.
"Turns out the guy with the most unwatchable ‘Law & Order’ spin-off is a very angry—and very ignorant—far-left ideologue."
"If he had any decency or self-respect, he’d apologize to the Congresswoman (unless he still can’t grasp how he’s embarrassed himself)."

Meloni evidently didn't feel any need to "apologize to the Congresswoman" though, as he instead responded with an epic burn for Miller instead.
"When nosferatu attempts shade."
"Stevie, stick to writing fascist speeches"

Twitter users definitely seemed to appreciate Meloni's mocking tweet more than Miller's sanctimonious one.
\u201c@Chris_Meloni And we have a winner of the contest\u2026\u201d— Chris Meloni (@Chris Meloni) 1665412051
\u201c@Chris_Meloni Give him a tiny break, Chris. It's hard to be self-aware when you can't see yourself in a mirror.\u201d— Chris Meloni (@Chris Meloni) 1665412051
\u201c@Chris_Meloni Actually, it's the best Law & Order show out of all three.\u201d— Chris Meloni (@Chris Meloni) 1665412051
\u201c@Chris_Meloni All politics aside, that is a clever riposte.\u201d— Chris Meloni (@Chris Meloni) 1665412051

\u201c@MikeDro_ @Chris_Meloni I\u2019m here for it and stan Chris Meloni for so many reasons, but since he let us know he was more worried about Puerto Rico than the Queen\u2019s funeral I have to say my considerable admiration has since grown!\u201d— Chris Meloni (@Chris Meloni) 1665412051
\u201c@Chris_Meloni That spin-off is now better than the original. Somebody should let him know. Of course, it's about Organized Crime, so that may hit a little too close to home for him.\u201d— Chris Meloni (@Chris Meloni) 1665412051
Even some who were unfamiliar with Meloni appreciated his response.
\u201c@Chris_Meloni I have no idea who you are sir but you\u2019ve quickly established yourself as a hero\u201d— Chris Meloni (@Chris Meloni) 1665412051
Miller still kept trying to get Meloni to apologize.
\u201cI\u2019m glad you finally admit you were wrong. Now do the right thing, delete the tweet, apologize to the Congresswoman, and try to model some semblance of dignified behavior. Or do you want the young people who watch your show to be as crude and uninformed as you?\u201d— Stephen Miller (@Stephen Miller) 1665414733
\u201c@StephenM Oh so its OK for a congress women to mock a president but not for the people to mock one of their representatives?\u201d— Stephen Miller (@Stephen Miller) 1665414733
\u201c@StephenM Is one of the crybabies about cancel culture continuing to demand someone cancel a tweet he doesn\u2019t approve of?\nYeah, of course he is. \ud83d\ude44\u201d— Stephen Miller (@Stephen Miller) 1665414733
