Story summary

Donald Trump named Stephen Miller as the new White House chief of staff, starting November 9, 2026. Susie Wiles, who was previously in the role, will move to a political operation for President Trump. The announcement came shortly after Republicans lost control of both the House and Senate in midterm elections, dealing a significant blow to the administration amid ongoing issues with Iran and economic concerns. Miller is known as one of Trump's most trusted advisors and has been instrumental in shaping the president’s hard-line immigration policies.
