President Donald Trump announced on Friday that Stephen Miller, one of his closest and most hardline advisers, will become the new White House chief of staff, according to France 24.
Miller, long known as the architect of Trump's aggressive immigration agenda, will replace Susie Wiles in the post, Al Jazeera reported. Trump said the move was made to help him "run things well" as he reshapes his inner circle.
The chief of staff role is considered one of the most influential positions in any administration, overseeing day to day operations in the West Wing and controlling access to the president. Miller's elevation signals a continued hardline direction for the administration's policy priorities.
