Story summary

On November 6, 2026, President Donald Trump announced that Stephen Miller, his longtime adviser and deputy chief of staff, would replace Susie Wiles as White House chief of staff starting Monday. Wiles had resigned from her position on Thursday evening. The change came after Democrats won control of both the House and Senate in the midterm elections, dealing a significant blow to Trump's administration following the war with Iran and economic concerns.

Miller’s promotion has raised skepticism regarding any potential bipartisan immigration deal, as he is known for his hardline stance on immigration policies. White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers stated that Trump’s strong immigration policy remains unchanged, emphasizing the continuation of deportation efforts despite some acknowledgment from Trump in a CBS interview that such policies might be "too tough."
