Quick Summary

President Donald Trump announced on his Truth Social account that Stephen Miller will become the new White House chief of staff starting Monday, replacing Susie Wiles who is moving to the Trump Political Operation. Democrats are expected to investigate Miller after gaining control of both chambers of Congress in January, following midterm elections where they secured 253 seats in the US House and netted seven Senate seats. The appointment reflects Trump’s commitment to his hardline policies despite recent electoral setbacks.
