Stephen Miller's hardline agenda as Trump's new chief of staff

Stephen Miller, the ultra-conservative ideologue known for his hardline stance on immigration, has been appointed chief of staff by President Donald Trump. Miller's plan following the electoral defeat reportedly involves no negotiations with the Democratic winners. Miller, 41, has been a close Trump ally since the 2016 campaign and is described as a bitter figure who enjoys attacking opponents. His aggressive immigration policies, including ICE actions that affected non-unauthorized immigrants, contributed to a loss of support among Latino voters, a factor in the defeat. Working with budget official Russel Vought, Miller has prepared a strategy to bypass Congress using executive orders and legal battles. The plan includes relaunching themes like crime and national sovereignty, imposing new tariffs, and tightening visa restrictions, aiming to reshape the country's demographics over the next four years.
