Stephen Miller said, through the media, that Charlie Kirk’s last words to him were about dismantling the “radical left”.
“The last message that Charlie Kirk gave to me before he joined his creator in heaven,” Miller said, was, “that we have to dismantle and take on the radical left organizations in this country that are fomenting violence, and we are going to do that.”

And from another source:a
White House adviser Stephen Miller has said Charlie Kirk gave him a message before his assassination, which was to “dismantle” what he called the “radical left.”
Miller said that the killing of Kirk, a stanch ally of President Donald Trump and proponent of the MAGA movement, took place within the backdrop of “a domestic terrorism movement in this country.”
There is no independent confirmation backing up Miller’s statement which comes as Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk vowed to never let Charlie’s legacy die and suspected killer Tyler Robinson remains in custody.

Stephen Miller is fulfilling his ambitions just now, he is a man with a mission, unelected but with strong convictions and the trust of his President.
Brittanica information on Stephen Miller covers his life, career and influences. Here us an extract:
During the 2016 presidential contest, Miller joined Trump’s campaign as a policy adviser. (Bannon also worked on the campaign, and Sessions was the first senator to endorse Trump.) Miller later became a speechwriter and was sometimes Trump’s warm-up speaker at rallies. After Trump won, Miller served as a senior policy adviser in the administration. His primary responsibility was shaping immigration policies. Notably, he was a leading advocate of the family separation policy, in which children were taken from parents who had illegally crossed the U.S.-Mexico border. Miller also supported the so-called Muslim ban, which barred entry into the United States from several Muslim-majority countries.

He talks of radicalisation by the “left” which he abhors.
It is possible that, as a teenager, he was traumatised, as most of America was, by the al Qaeda 9/11 act which put the then president, George W Bush, into a constitution-changing mode after he announced the country was declaring a War on Terror.
The long-term consequences of Bush’s immigration policies included a continued reliance on undocumented labor, increased deportations, and the establishment of a more militarized border. These dynamics contributed to the ongoing polarization of immigration discourse in the United States, shaping public perceptions and policies in subsequent administrations.
Intimidation of Muslims in America after 9/11 – this article helps to illustrate the long term harm resulting from the attack:
the next few days, I’d feel under attack as a Muslim. Our imam at our masjid brought to the prayer a big box stuffed with tiny American flags. He told us that if any of us felt unsafe, we could hang these flags out of our cars or out of our homes. Stories about Muslim women in hijabs and Muslim men with big beards being accosted in the street in hateful “revenge” attacks became commonplace. An FBI hotline was flooded with anonymous tips—96,000 of them in the week after the attacks—and the bar for being suspicious felt as low as being visibly Muslim. It didn’t feel safe to be Muslim outside of the mosque.
All over the country, not just my corner of Jersey, hate crimes against Muslims—and anyone perceived to be Muslim—soared in the days after 9/11. The White House sought to stave off a full-blown wave of violence. President George W. Bush quickly made the distinction between Muslim Americans and the terrorists who attacked us. On Sept. 17, Bush famously gave a speech from inside the Islamic Center of Washington. “The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam,” he said. “That’s not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace.”
