Trump Names Stephen Miller Chief of Staff After Midterm Losses

ndtv.com —

President Donald Trump announced Saturday that Stephen Miller will replace Susie Wiles as White House Chief of Staff, effective Monday, November 9, 2026, following the Republican Party's defeat in the midterm elections. Wiles, the first woman to hold the post, will move to the Trump Political Operation, remaining in the president's orbit. She served as Trump's first appointee after the 2024 election and was the longest-serving chief of staff of his presidency. Miller, currently Deputy Chief of Staff and homeland security adviser, is one of Trump's closest aides, linked to immigration policy. The change comes amid reports of potential cabinet reshuffling, though the State Department denied claims about Secretary of State Marco Rubio's departure.
