Trump names hardline immigration adviser Stephen Miller as chief of staff
President-elect Donald Trump has named Stephen Miller, a hardline immigration adviser, as his next White House chief of staff, succeeding Susie Wiles in the role starting Monday. Miller, 41, has long shaped Trump's restrictive immigration policies and views immigration as a threat to the United States. Trump praised their collaboration, while Democrats condemned the appointment, with House leader Hakeem Jeffries accusing Miller of having "American blood on his hands." Wiles, the first woman to hold the post, resigned Thursday after a tenure marked by internal friction. She will remain in a non-governmental advisory role, while her departure further reduces female representation in top administration positions.
