In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
Miller’s career has also encompassed positions such as Senior Associate White House Counsel, Inspector General of the United States General Services Administration (Senate confirmed July 22, 2005), Senior Counsel to the Deputy Attorney General, and Assistant United States Attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia. He also served as Special Counsel on Health Care Fraud for the Deputy Attorney General and Counsel to the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. Additionally, in 2025, he held the position of Acting General Counsel of the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
