On November 6, 2026, three days after his party lost Congress, Donald Trump announced that Stephen Miller will become White House chief of staff, replacing Susie Wiles, the longest-serving chief of staff of his career and one of the few people around him known for slowing him down. The same week, Trump met his national security team about Iran and said a decision was coming soon. In November 2020, the people in the room talked him out of striking Iran. Six years later, the room is changing. But there’s a twist: according to The New York Times, Miller’s pitch for the job was that the President needed to wind down the Iran war. Here’s who Susie Wiles really was, who Stephen Miller is in his own words, why Trump did this now, and what it means for the decision on Iran in the 58 days before the new Congress is sworn in.
