Trump replaces Susie Wiles with Stephen Miller as chief of staff after GOP’s midterm defeat

President Donald Trump announced on Friday that Stephen Miller would replace Susie Wiles as White House Chief of Staff, following the GOP's loss in the recent midterm elections. Miller, a long-time adviser to Trump, is known for his hard-line immigration policies and has been a key member of the administration's inner circle. He joined Trump's team during his 2016 campaign as a speechwriter and currently serves as Deputy Chief of Staff.

Wiles resigned from her role on Thursday night, with Trump praising her during his social media post, stating that she would continue to work for his political organization. Wiles expressed her pride in her time in the White House and reiterated her commitment to the President and the mission. She is the longest-serving White House Chief of Staff for Trump, having served for four years during his first term, and is known for bringing order to the president's campaign efforts.

Wiles' departure comes months after she made headlines due to a Vanity Fair interview that revealed her candid opinions about Trump and other administration officials, including her criticism of the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
