White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, 69, announced on X that she is now cancer-free after being diagnosed six months ago. Her pathology tests from a recent visit to the Mayo Clinic showed no remaining signs of cancer. Wiles thanked President Trump for his support and expressed her commitment to continuing her work supporting his "America First Agenda." She remained active in her role during treatment and has faced controversy over candid comments about administration figures, including describing President Trump as having an "alcoholic's personality" while also praising his capabilities highly.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
