Democratic leader Jeffries slams Trump's new chief of staff pick Stephen Miller

t-online.de (German) —

Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries sharply criticized incoming White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, calling him a "dangerous xenophobe and reckless extremist" with "American blood on his hands" and demanding his dismissal. President Trump announced Friday that Miller, currently deputy chief of staff for policy, will replace Susie Wiles as chief of staff on Monday. Jeffries posted the criticism on X, urging Trump to "fire him today." Miller is known as a right-wing hardliner on immigration, while Wiles was considered a pragmatic political operator. The announcement follows the Republican Party's losses in Tuesday's midterm elections.
