Comedian Pauly Shore is the latest to take a crack at impersonating a political figure. In this case, its White House senior policy advisor Stephen Miller in a recent Funny or Die sketch that skewers the recent exchange of words between Miller and CNN’s Jim Acosta during a press briefing which centered on immigration. 
 
 The short cuts between footage of Shore as Miller and real footage from the press briefing. The clip riffs on the much talked about debate between Miller and Acosta. In the real footage, Acosta says to Miller “The Statue of Liberty says, ‘give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.'” He then adds, “It doesn’t say anything about speaking English or being able to be a computer programmer.” 
 
 Shore jumps in and goes on a so-called history lesson about the Statue of Liberty. After saying that Lady Liberty is holding an iPad, he talks about how Wolverine fought Sabretooth atop of the landmark, which is a nod to 2000’s X-Men. He also goes on to get passionate in his speech by referencing key scenes from Ghostbusters II and Cloverfield that involved the Statue of Liberty before ending with a random clip with an animated version of landmark from Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. ||||| Story highlights Steve Bannon favors the restructuring with Miller in a communications role 
 
 Chief of staff John Kelly is eyeing his former Homeland Security spokesperson, David Lapan 
 
 Washington (CNN) White House senior policy adviser Stephen Miller is being considered for an elevated communications role, a White House official tells CNN. 
 
 There are internal discussions that Miller could be elevated to such a role in addition to his current position as an adviser. White House chief strategist Steve Bannon favors the restructuring, but Miller might not necessarily have the title of communications director, the official said. 
 
 Meanwhile, CNN has reported that President Donald Trump's new chief of staff, John Kelly, is eyeing his former Homeland Security spokesperson, David Lapan, for the role. Kelly ousted Anthony Scaramucci, who officially held the communications position for five days but was named to the post several days earlier, on Monday. 
 
 Two high-level administration sources told CNNMoney that Lapan, who has worked with Kelly for over a decade, is at the top of a short list to serve as the White House's top official on messaging and communications. 
 
 Scaramucci was forced to vacate his communications director role following Kelly's swearing in as chief of staff. Kelly delivered the news in a face-to-face meeting with Scaramucci in his office, two people familiar with the sudden turn of events on Monday said, making getting Scaramucci out of the White House one of Kelly's first official acts as chief of staff.

– One week after the controversial 10-day tenure of White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci came to a dramatic end, officials in the Trump administration are floating the possibility that senior policy adviser Stephen Miller could get his job, Axios reports. Miller, an immigration hardliner, saw his stock rise in the White House last week after he got into an on-camera argument with CNN reporter Jim Acosta during the daily White House briefing about Trump's support of a Republican plan to cut legal immigration in half. Miller accused Acosta of having "cosmopolitan" views on immigration, apparently pleasing Trump. Though Miller is in the running for the communications job, he is reportedly not at the top of the list. CNN reports that new White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, who ousted Scaramucci last week, is strongly considering his former spokesman at the Department of Homeland Security, David Lapan, who has worked with Kelly for more than a decade. White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon favors Miller for the role. If Miller does get the job, he can look forward to being impersonated again by comedian Pauly Shore, who mocked the White House adviser's briefing performance in a recent Funny or Die video, per Deadline Hollywood.
