President Donald Trump announced Friday that Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller will take over as White House chief of staff on Monday, November 9, 2026, replacing Susie Wiles.
Miller has worked as a lead architect of the administration's border enforcement and deportation programs. Trump praised his longtime aide as one of his most trusted advisers in making the West Wing appointment.
Wiles submitted her resignation on Thursday night, confirming that Friday marked her final day leading the West Wing staff. Trump said Wiles will transition to work on his political operation following 21 months of service, which made her the longest-serving chief of staff across both of his presidential administrations.
