Both Miller and Blanche have been relocated to more secure housing in the nation's capital Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent also recently relocated to military housing amid concerns for his safety and reported threats from Iran. Blanche is not the first DOJ chief to relocate to more heavily guarded housing during Trump's second White House term.

News of the relocations comes as Democrats and their staffers prepare to descend into Washington full-time, as part of a historic 'blue wave' that flipped both GOP majorities in the House and Senate.
