Why It Matters

After the Republicans lost the majority in the Senate and the House of Representatives in the midterm elections, a change of position was made in the White House.

Font size

US President Donald Trump announced that he decided to appoint his advisor Stephen Miller to replace Susie Wiles, who had been serving as his long-time Private Secretary, after the Republicans lost the majority in both the Senate and the House of Representatives to the Democrats in the midterm elections.

Trump announced the change of duty in the White House with a post on his social media account.

In his statement, Trump stated that Miller will take office on Monday, November 9, and said, "I am pleased to announce that Stephen Miller, the current Deputy Special Secretary of the Trump administration and one of my most trusted advisors, will take office as Special Secretary as of Monday, November 9, 2026. Susie Wiles, who is doing a great job, will move to the Trump Political Operations Unit."

Thus, Wiles, who has been in Trump's close working team for a long time, will leave his position as Special Secretary at the White House and move to the Trump Political Operations Unit.

First significant change of office after midterm elections

The reshuffle between Wiles and Miller stood out as the first significant reshuffle in the Trump administration after Republicans lost the majority in both the Senate and the House of Representatives to the Democrats in the midterm elections held on November 3.

On the other hand, some news in the US press claimed that Secretary of State Marco Rubio was preparing to leave his post and become a candidate in the 2028 presidential elections.

Open Questions

  • Whether the claim that Marco Rubio will leave office is true or not
  • What Susie Wiles will do in her new role
