Trump replaces White House chief of staff Susie Wiles with Stephen Miller

President Donald Trump announced on Friday that Stephen Miller would be replacing Susie Wiles as White House chief of staff, following the Republican Party's loss in the recent midterm elections. Trump praised Wiles on his social media platform and mentioned that she would continue to work for his political organization. Miller, a key member of Trump's inner circle, is renowned for his role in formulating the administration's stringent immigration policies.

Wiles, the first woman to hold the position of White House chief of staff, was known for her tenacity and long-standing relationship with Trump. Her departure occurred shortly after the GOP's significant loss in the midterms. Wiles had previously announced she was cancer-free after undergoing months of treatment for the disease, a diagnosis she disclosed in March 2026.

Wiles served as the longest-serving White House chief of staff for Trump, having held the position multiple times during his first term.
