Stephen Miller to replace Susie Wiles as Trump's chief of staff

npr.org —

President Trump announced Friday that Stephen Miller will replace Susie Wiles as White House chief of staff, following sweeping Republican losses in this week's midterm elections. The change takes effect Monday. Miller, currently deputy chief of staff and an advisor to the Department of Homeland Security, has been a key architect of Trump's most controversial policies, particularly aggressive immigration enforcement. Trump said Miller "gets it," while Wiles will remain in a political operations role. Wiles, who served as chief of staff since day one, was credited with reducing staff turnover and press leaks that plagued Trump's first term. She was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year but was declared cancer-free this fall.
