Miller took office on 9 November 2026 after President Donald Trump announced on 6 November that he would replace Susie Wiles, who is to move to Trump’s political operation.
Stephen Miller has taken over as White House chief of staff, replacing Susie Wiles in the president’s top staff role. Miller began the job on 9 November, The Guardian said. He was previously a deputy chief of staff and an architect of the administration’s strict immigration policy.
Trump announced the replacement on 6 November, after Republicans lost control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate in the midterm elections. Wiles, who had held the post since Trump’s inauguration, said the day of the announcement was her last in the job.
The chief of staff is a presidential appointee who does not need Senate confirmation and serves at the president’s pleasure. The job can include supervising White House staff, managing access to the president, the flow of information to and decisions from the president, and overseeing policy development.
A memo from Miller’s office says the White House Cabinet secretary position will become director of Cabinet relations, a role focused on supporting Cabinet secretaries, Fox News Digital reported after reviewing the memo. It also says the White House policy process will run through the deputy chief of staff for policy and the national security adviser, with defined responsibilities and no overlapping policy portfolios.
Trump praised Wiles’s work and said she would move to his political operation. Wiles called serving him in the White House “the honor of a lifetime” and said her commitment to the president would continue as her role changed. An unnamed White House official told Fox News that the decision was “very amicable” and that Wiles submitted her resignation on Thursday night.
Xinhua says the law requires wildlife protection, proper waste handling and disposal, prevention of marine pollution and reduced environmental harm. Research, tourism and shipping permissions will face environmental, safety and other conditions.
Wiles worked on Trump’s 2016 and 2020 campaigns and became his campaign’s Florida co-chairwoman in 2015. Trump described Miller as one of his “most trusted advisors.”
Deputy chief of staff Richard Walters, a longtime Wiles ally, is also leaving the administration. Miller confirmed the departure to Fox News and said Walters would continue to help from outside. Before Miller took over, Fox News said he was expected to install his own leadership team.
