Stephen Miller tried to claim only real "Americans" built the Empire State Building, but he left out the true stories of the Indigenous ironworkers who actually did. The Mohawk Skywalkers helped shape America's skylines—and shatter the lie behind Miller’s whitewashed nostalgia.
The Kanien'kéhá:ka Haudenosaunee ironworkers were vital to building Miller's favorite monuments to modern America
Maybe he meant only original real Americans, I’ve heard stories of the Mohawk iron workers since I was a kid but school is different these days
Aho! ❤️💛🤍🖤
Of course he did he's a Nazi using Nazi propaganda
Do not allow the racist Nazi Maga of M’erica to change history.
Things that are said by anyone who has sucked up to the convicted felon are most probably not worth your time! They have forgotten what truth, honor, integrity & ethical values are after trading in all theirs!
Thank you for sharing one of the many stories of the people who have contributed to this country. People like little Stephen work to burn and bury the truth. Our nation is a patchwork of many cultures, religions, races, and traditions. That is what makes this country great and we must reclaim it.
Stephen Miller is a thumb tack. His single purpose is to be a prick.

Well, to be fair, I think the Mohawk Skywalkers do qualify as "Real Americans". Certainly more than Miller does.
Ironic really when the Mohawk Skywalkers were indeed the only real Americans who built the Empire State.
Stephen Miller said neither that only white Americans built the Empire State Building, nor that immigrants did not participate in its construction.
The article’s only intent is to smear Miller as a white supremacist.
As usual.
He's a dickhead and a loser
Everyone spits on the little fascist, Stephen Miller.
Well he’s right.
They’re the “real” Americans. The ones who were here first.
Like he would know. What a fascist idiot.
George- weren’t the Mohawk Skywalkers the ONLY REAL AMERICANS at that worksite?
😡 Miller is a racist and a bigot. Hopefully he get his upancommence
Does Stephen Miller, white supremacist, buy into the Nazi myth of the Aryan master race? How can a Jew, clearly not resembling the Aryan ideal, possibly hold these views?
I’m disgusted by the revision of history to include white men only. ALL LIES! White indentured servants, black slaves, immigrants, relocated Native Americans, women & children have ALL built this country with their sweat, tears & lives. We CAN’T let MAGATS leave out the importance of ALL OF THEM.
MAGA is a far-right authoritarian Pedo Rapist Felon Trump Christian Cult... and real attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated...
True. Even I, never having visited New York, have heard the stories. So, Stephen wasn't wrong in a totally unanticipated way, right?
I really despise that guy!
MILLER IS IGNORANT AND HIDEOUS INSIDE AND OUT THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE are and were the original people
EVERY ON ELSE AN IMMIGRANT
The White House, Capitol & Library of Congress were built by skilled slave builders. Miller's narrow vision reminds me of blinders put on horses. He's a xenophobe & racist who cannot be swayed, he's locked in.
thank you for sharing the truth, always George.
Steven Miller appears to be the biggest fucking moron that ever walked the Earth. He said something similarly stupid about Washington DC being the most dangerous city on Earth. How many immigrants worked on that building as well? He’s the worm in “him’s” brain.
Stephen Miller’s penis envy is showing!
Thank you for this knowledge nugget GT.
useless treasonous bigoted ignorant pendejo!
Also, check out this great series about Mohawk Ironworkers, which ran on APTN a few years ago.
Our Stories. Our Voices. Award-winning television programming by, for and about Indigenous Peoples to share with all Canadians.
Only a guy that denies his own Jewish birth would try to hide that Native North American were prevalent in the building of most skyscrapers. According to many, they said they tend not to fear high places.
The sooner Miller is in a cage, the better!!
I’m a descendant of a skywalker who fell off scaffolding to his death.
In that sense he would be correct as the Skywalkers were the only real Americans. /s I'm certain that's what Miller meant. /s
Fk Stephen Miller, the Jewish Nazi. 🖕🏽
they stole land they stole people they stole history
what is it about these european-americans?
idk. will these 'alpha-whites' ever get their own gig?
...but George. They are so easily discredited. A simple Google search shows just how full of shit they are. Really? 😨
Obersturmbannführer Skeletor Von Fükyerzelph needs to not talk about anything.
What the fuck is a "real" American?
This is great. And pretty much everything Stephen Miller says is an exaggerated lie.
As well as Six Nations (none of them Herr Miller's kind of real "Americans") who also produced exceptional high iron workers.
Yamah (thank you) for sharing the history that fades away; for bringing it back into the light.
Yup & they built the Xerox Tower in Rochester, NY and World Trade Center along with many other buildings and bridges across Ameica. Stuff your whitewashing, Miller.
I'm starting to think peewee German might just be racist😂.this white nationalist piece of shit is the scariest part of this regime. Most are just greedy crooks and con men. I'm not sure what caused his mommy issues but this fuckwad lives on hate and racism.
I hate Miller. An evil man who tries to bury the truth with lies.
I don’t know how my beloved country let these racist undereducated assholes have the power to turn America into a banana republic but IM PISSED!
he's RIGHT! It was REAL americans. The originals!
And yes from north of the border
I'm not surprised that Miller did not know about the incredible skills of the mohawk steelworkers, after all this administration simply writes its own version of history. Props to my brother mohawk steelworkers!
It wouldn't surprise me if the Irish and the Chinese built everything else too.
First heard about them in this 1960 book.
Mostly from Montreal.
These too.
Diné men helped build the Glen Canyon Dam and Bridge.
To say nothing of all the Native Boilermakers, welders, and powerplant operators, without whom there’d be no electricity in the Southwest.
He’s an idiot 😡
A more clear case of the "One True Scotsman fallacy" is hard to imagine.
My grandfather was an immigrant who came in the 19-teens and worked as an ironworker. He eventually naturalized, but many immigrants like him built the landmark buildings across the country.
Free to watch. Aired July 2025
Excellent article!
We need a game show based on which Trump administration official is the most detestable. It’s a stiff competition.
They were (are) real Americans.
Stephen Miller is a monster.
Fuck PeeWee German
Oh what a shocker. Josef Goebbels II lied.
The Native Americans ARE the only real Americans. Miller is just a sad knockoff.
My grandfather helped build the empire State bldg, as well as other known buildings from New York to Chicago. That's how he was able to save money for my grandmother and uncle to join him here in America. He told us lots of stories about the true Americans as he called them.
Miller is such a POS!
They twist history to suit their needs. Fuck miller.
They are ALL overtly racist.
Miller is a lying Nazi. End of.
AH-HA!! Revisionist history.
Lots of European immigrants worked on it too.
You can count on everytime Miller opens his mouth a lie comes out , it’s amazing he has time to breathe.
Pathetic racist got rid of farm workers/health workers when are the white workers going to show?????
Stephen Miller thinks he’s the superior race, but in fact, he looks like a big toe
He only believes in white history
They are all uneducated in USA history…
Someone please find out who built Stephen Miller’s house
Native Americans only gained voting 🗳 rights in 1924 though they have fought Bravely for America 🇺🇸 in many Wars our nation has faced www.npr.org/2024/05/31/n...
On June 2, 1924, Congress passed a law which granted citizenship -- and the right to vote -- to Native Americans. Has the U.S. has kept the promise of voting rights for Indigenous people?
Yep, Skywalkers!
This administration is trying to rewrite history. However it’s well documented.
DONALD TRUMP CALLS ALL THE IMMIGRANTS CRIMINALS AND FELONS AND RAPISTS ! BUT DONALD TRUMP IS A CRIMINAL AND A FELON AND A RAPIST !
You can only be racist if you’re ignorant
I learned about these brave men when studying structural engineering in the seventies. Their story always fascinated me. Thanks for posting this wonderful article!
Stevie Goebbels....is full of nonsense.
Ignorance drives the hate spewed by MAGA bigots like Stephen Miller. Education is key to defeating them.
To be honest, those are "real Americans"...the only real Americans. The rest of us are all immigrants.
Welp, Native Americans ARE the real Americans.
Stephen Miller wipes his as in an American flag.
Born and raised in Haudenosaunee territory. My primary school was at the foot of the Victoria bridge on the south shore of Montreal. Despite all the racism of 1970s Quebec, the Mohawk steelworkers were legend. There’s even a tribute to them at the 911 exhibition in NYC.
Does he know who built Trump Tower?
👊🤌🫳🤝🫶🪶🦅🦉🐦🔥👣🦋🕊️ Brave Courageous FEARLESS 🫳🫶🤌ALPHA 🙋🏽♂️🪶🙇🏽♂️
I remember learning about the Indigenous workers who were not afraid of the height like their white counterparts. Miller is a real POS.
And most of them were Canadians.
stephen miller should spend more time in his coffin- a LOT more
What the domed devil lies?!
Well he was only able to see black and white photos….sooooo.
Steven Miller is a criminal racist.
I'm pretty sure that 80% of the workers building the Empire State Building were immigrants.
Sort of like the 80% of workers who build homes today.
They don't fit the White narrative. So that's not real history.
AND the World Trade Center(s).
Irish
Many of the Mohawks were from the Canadian side of the border.
A large amount of Newfoundlanders also worked the high steel
The Mohawks could walk the lines above the skies. always will alwayd do.
Manyy rock climbers of numerous peoples carry the gift in their blood. My brother being one & his girls.
They scale Yosemites great grantinte as if they were were walking up chairs. Sites to behold, Geogere.
NYC was built by immigrants.
I guess, technically he's right ... indigenous Americans ARE real Americans. Those european settlers and their 'anchor babies' were illegal immigrants.
👌🔥💙… thank you for bringing this up…
It would be really interesting to see what his real heritage is!! I think he would be surprised!!!
Please let TRUE history survive somehow.. 💔
There's an excellent historical exhibit at the The Woodland Cultural Centre in Brantford Ontario. The former Mohawk Institute Residential School in Brantford, Ont., will open to the public as a museum for the first time this fall.
Why can’t we sue Stephen miller for committing sedition against the constitution? I am not smart enough to know why 😭
The article says that few people know of the involvement of the Mohawk people in building the skyscrapers of New York. I beg to differ. I live in Scotland and knew all about these brave and skilful men. Perhaps it’s only Americans who CHOOSE not to know.
They WERE the real Americans
Stephen miller is a white wanna be fascist Jew who is shaming his heritage, the memory of his Jewish family who suffered greatly under the hands of the Yatzi’s. What ever, whom ever did what to that man to hate so much
What is real Americans not you for sure Stephen Miller.
Stephen Miller appears lame and weak. I doubt he could build a gingerbread house.
#StephenMiller's "True Americans" are card-carrying members of the #KKK and the #Nazis!
The point Miller misses is that the Mohawk Skywalkers WERE real Americans.
so...they weren't Americans?
I have watched a documentary on that!
The only REAL AMERICANS are the Mohawk and other indigenous tribes who were here before a single white man got off a ship! So in this case only Miller is accurate.
Race is a tool Used by controllers Of the masses
Stephen Miller just makes shit up to match the dark narrative in his head.
Yes, and they weren't subject to fear of heights
He seems to miss a simple fact that anyone native to any of the 35 countries of the American continent is a “real” American. More real than he is, in fact.
Steven Miller is a Jewish NAZI!
Most of his "real Americans" were almost certainly recent immigrants to America.
Polish labor built Trump Tower. And he stiffed them.
Stephen Miller is an illegal immigrant that needs to be deported to El Salvador or DeathSantis Alligator Alcatraz
Those iron workers were the only “real” Americans on the job site
How did he not know this. I have known about it all my life. LIFE magazine did stories about it and famous photographers shot amazing photos. Mohawk Tribe. They had a unique skill for maintaining their balance at great heights.
My grandfather, traveled by himself from Italy at 14 years old and immediately labored on the Empire State Building, permanently poisoning his hands in the concrete. He didn't know English, was uneducated and came here because of the crushing poverty in his family, just like so many immigrants do
We know who actually built this country, no matter how many times they try to erase us.
America has a beautiful, poignant, tragic and powerful history. We cannot let this maniac steal it. Someone please stop him.
This is the nazi you speak of.
Screamin’ Stephen Miller is an ignoramus.
Miller is a racist fascist nazi moron who wants to rewrite history
Miller is the Temu Goebbels
Miller’s a brown shirt jack-booted Nazi
Indigenous and immigrant workers built a LOT of iconic American skylines and landmarks...railroads, skyscrapers, bridges, dams, roads. (I knew there was a reason I wore my "STFU Stephen" T-shirt today, all spelled out. Yeah, it was on top of the stack again, but I must've been waiting for this.)
yes, Americans:
Irish American, Italian American, Chinese Americans, Native Americans, Slavic Americans built these cities.
And years ago I saw a couple amazing documentaries on this. They are quite amazing and have done this work for many generations
I simply don't understand how Stephen Miller grew into the vile hater that he is today. What canker rotted his soul? He is evil.
Oh, that's not going to be in the Smithsonian
Since Stephen miller is the reincarnation of Joseph Goebbels … nothing surprises me 😡😡😡
Stephen Miller is everything that was ever wrong with Germany.
Gosh, I learned this in school, in Germany 40+ years ago.
How stupid is the average US person that anyone would utter such bs in public?
I believe they were also integral to the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge.
There’s a tendency to ignore the real history or rewrite it entirely on their side…
Not gonna lie, Mohawk Skywalkers sounds like an awesome band.
There are those of us who remember them. Miller is “teaching” his brand to the youngsters and those who haven’t read or experienced history.
Education is the way. If you are not indigenous you are or come from immigrants 😉
Fascinating. Thank you for posting this.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen...
fuck Miller
www.history.com/articles/moh...
Native American riveting gangs worked on the 'high steel' for iconic structures like the Chrysler Building, Empire St...
Love the Mohawk Skywalkers getting the recognition they deserve, and Miller's attempt at whitewashing history is just a sad, crumbling skyscraper of a lie.
Steve Miller is a claimed White Supremecist…Get him TF out of government🤬
I know a civil engineer who was heavily involved in the building of Canada's CN Tower in the 1970s. He had all sorts of praise about the Mohawks who worked on the tower. They were great with the heights, worked hard, and worked on all sorts of high rise projects.
Perhaps Stephen Miller is an asshole.
The Skywalkers basically built the NYC skyline.
Stephen Miller is a despicable NAZI!
I expect nothing less of Miller
I learned about the Mohawk Skywalkers from history programs on TV. Amazing! We have to be lifelong learners because we won’t learn it all in school.
Imperialism always tries to rewrite history, it's because they have very little or none of their own.
Fuck that Jewish Nazi Stephen Miller aka little Joseph Goebbels in the flesh.
THEY ARE SERIAL LIARS AND TRYING TO RE-WRITE HISTORY! FIRST IT STARTED WITH BANNING BOOKS AT MAGA SCHOOLS TO KEEP ALL OF THEM UNEDUCATED!
Those indigenous persons were here first.
Steohen Miller like most bigots are 99% as hideous outside as they are inside, going to show their “ideal” of perfection, them/their, is always emotionally, intellectually and ultimately physically unattractive. They hate others because at the core they hate themselves. And we all have to pay.
Many were of Newfoundland, Canada descent as well. Literally right off the boat and in high demand for their rigging skills. “The fish gang” who helped shape the New York skyline. Immigrant all :).
He’s not just taking apart the constitution AND the Democracy … he’s he’s hired a ghost writer to make History match his delusional objectives …
💯, plenty of info about these great workers out there, this Administration is the least informed ever!
Miller is a racist, plain and simple.
Miller was technically correct, the sky-walkers were real Americans, but I’m pretty sure that’s not what he meant
Look. Im a self taught scholar on the Puritan movement in England and Early New England. WHEN did ANY Puritans EVER have their school classes led ...in PRAYER? That would NOT have happened. EVER. The PURITANS were Brownites. They were FANATICS about Chuch and State separation. That never existed.
Stephen Miller is one of the most recent racist people in the world!!
Fact of the matter, I would call the Mohawks the only “Americans” working on the Empire State Building as their ancestors were here centuries before the others. Sorry Stephen but your ignorance is truly there for all to see. Maybe you need to give up the Tom Sawyer routine.
Thank you George.
"joseph goebbles" reincarnate is a sick, vicious predator capable of mass murder of "the other"
I bet he’d say the white ppl built the railroads too
In a way, Miller was right. Native Americans are the true "real Americans".
Skydancer movie www.imdb.com/title/tt1534...
1h 15m
Somehow height does not bother them, being petrified of heights, myself, I am rather envious. Mohawks are awesome, some of the original real Americans. Let's take Mr Miller up on one of the really tall ones & leave him there, see how a faux "real American" handles it.
I'm English and even I know about the Mohawk Skywalkers, it must be difficult for Miller when you can only get out of your coffin at night
Actually they were the ONLY real Americans
To be fair, SS Miller is lying nazi cunt.
I guess they were “real Americans” because they were here before everyone else. So in essence it’s true, just not in the way he meant it.
