Trump replaces chief of staff after midterm losses

cbsnews.com —

President Trump announced Stephen Miller would replace Susie Wiles as White House chief of staff, hours after telling 60 Minutes he expected to make personnel changes following Republican losses in both chambers of Congress. In the interview, Trump said he loved his Cabinet but anticipated "a few changes," while expressing confidence in Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth despite reports he had questioned his future. Trump also claimed victories in Venezuela, citing rapid military success and financial gains. Wiles resigned Thursday, tied to the GOP's midterm defeats, becoming the most prominent departure. Other officials like Attorney General Pam Bondi and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem left earlier this year, though Trump has largely kept his team intact.
