United States President Donald Trump announced that Stephen Miller will be appointed as White House Chief of Staff, effective Monday, November 9, 2026. Miller, currently serving as Deputy Chief of Staff, will replace Susie Wiles, who reportedly resigned yesterday. This was reported by Interfax and Walla.

Miller’s appointment comes in the wake of the Republican Party's defeat in the recent midterm elections. Miller is considered one of Trump's closest advisors and the architect of the administration's hardline immigration policies. Further details regarding structural changes in the White House have not yet been released.
