Susie Wiles faces corruption claims after White House ouster

nz.news.yahoo.com —

Newly ousted White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles faces accusations from former Trump administration official Calley Means that she ran a corrupt operation prioritizing lobbyists and political fundraising over public health. Means, a close ally of Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., alleged Wiles blocked Make America Healthy Again initiatives, including efforts to improve children's diets, citing her repeated demands for midterm election money. He also claimed companies hiring Wiles' daughter as a lobbyist received "high priority" treatment, and that her team pushed to ease restrictions on e-cigarettes and kratom products. Trump announced Wiles' departure Friday, with deputy Stephen Miller taking over Nov. 9. The White House denied the allegations, citing administration victories on dietary guidelines and artificial ingredients.
