Trump announced that Stephen Miller will become White House chief of staff on November 9 and that Susie Wiles will move to his political operation; the announced transition is a personnel decision, not a completed change in office before the stated start date
President Donald Trump announced that Stephen Miller, currently a White House deputy chief of staff and one of Trump's longest-serving advisers, will replace Susie Wiles as White House chief of staff starting Monday, November 9. Trump said Wiles will move to his political operation. Associated Press reports that Wiles submitted her resignation on November 5. Wiles was the first woman to hold the post and Trump's longest-serving White House chief of staff. Miller joined Trump's 2016 campaign and has been a central architect of the administration's hard-line immigration policies.
Response / context
Trump thanked Wiles and praised her work. In a public statement quoted by Associated Press, Wiles called her White House service the honor of a lifetime, praised the administration's record and said her commitment to Trump and the mission would not change. Later, Trump told reporters he wanted to make a change, again praised Wiles and said Miller understands the role and would be a strong manager. The announcement came three days after Republicans lost both chambers of Congress in the midterm elections. That sequence is relevant context, but Trump did not attribute the decision to the election result. The direct Truth Social post remained inaccessible to the Ledger, but the White House pool archive surfaced its exact public URL and independently recorded the announcement and later gaggle; the announcement is also corroborated by AP and Reuters.
Event or conduct: Nov 6, 2026 · Trump announced the personnel change on November 6. Associated Press first published its report at approximately 12:58 p.m. EST and later added Trump's departure remarks; Reuters published its independent confirmation at 2:04 p.m. EST. A White House pool report flagged the direct Truth Social post at 2:11 p.m. and recorded Trump's departure gaggle at 2:56 p.m. The Ledger first reviewed AP and contemporaneous reproductions at 2:51 p.m. and reviewed Reuters, the pool archive and AP's updated reporting at 5:03 p.m. EST. Miller's announced November 9 start date remains future. The resignation, announcement, news publications, later remarks, Ledger reviews and start date are distinct events.

Trump endorsed incumbent RNC chair Joe Gruters for another term; KC Crosbie has announced a challenge, and the endorsement does not decide the RNC's January leadership election
President Donald Trump endorsed Republican National Committee chair Joe Gruters for another term, calling him a trusted partner and urging Republicans to support him. The endorsement followed RNC co-chair KC Crosbie's announcement that she would challenge Gruters after Republicans lost control of Congress in the November 3 midterms. The Washington Post reported that Gruters helped shape the party's midterm strategy and had predicted Republicans would outperform historical trends.
Response / context
Crosbie said the RNC had fallen short and called for change after the election, according to The Washington Post and Axios. Axios reported that her candidacy letter went to the committee's 168 members and that the RNC plans to hold leadership elections at its January meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona. Trump did not address the midterm losses in his endorsement; he emphasized Gruters's support for his Florida campaigns, party management and personal loyalty. The public endorsement is evidence of Trump's preference, not a completed RNC election or proof of why committee members will vote as they do. The Ledger could not access Truth Social directly and reviewed a public archive of Trump's post alongside AP and Washington Post reporting.
Event or conduct: Nov 6, 2026 · Trump posted his endorsement November 6. Associated Press and The Washington Post reported it the same day. The Ledger reviewed the public-post archive, AP, The Washington Post and Axios at 9:30 p.m. EST. The endorsement, news publication, source review and RNC's scheduled January leadership election are distinct events.

Associated Press ↗Independent November 6 live report reproducing Trump's endorsement and identifying it as support for another term · Trump's Truth public archive ↗Public archive of Trump's November 6 statement; Truth Social itself was inaccessible to the Ledger, so this copy is treated as a secondary archive rather than the platform record · The Washington Post ↗Independent November 6 report on the endorsement, Crosbie's challenge, Gruters's midterm role and the parties' stated positions · Axios ↗November 6 report based on Crosbie's candidacy letter and administration sources; its anonymous-source character is retained, and the reported White House reaction is not presented as a formal finding
Two material developments are published. President Donald Trump announced that Stephen Miller will replace Susie Wiles as White House chief of staff on November 9. Trump said Wiles will move to his political operation, and Wiles said her commitment to Trump and his agenda would continue. Associated Press reports that Wiles submitted her resignation November 5. Reuters independently confirmed the announcement. In a later departure gaggle, Trump said he wanted to make a change, continued praising Wiles and said Miller would do a good job. He did not tie the decision to the midterm result. Separately, Trump endorsed Republican National Committee chair Joe Gruters for another term after RNC co-chair KC Crosbie announced a challenge following Republican midterm losses. Trump's endorsement is political support, not the result of the RNC's January leadership election. This is not a complete account of all news that day.
Review the source-check log
White House chief-of-staff transition announcement — Reviewed Associated Press's updated report, Reuters' independent confirmation and the White House pool archive. AP reports that Wiles submitted her resignation November 5 and quotes her public response. The pool archive surfaced the exact Truth Social URL and independently recorded Trump's later departure gaggle, but the direct Truth Social page remained inaccessible to the Ledger. The announcement and stated November 9 start date are corroborated by AP, Reuters and the pool archive. Trump later said he wanted a change while continuing to praise Wiles; he did not tie the decision to the election result.
Trump endorsement in contested RNC chair race — Reviewed Associated Press, The Washington Post, Axios and a public archive of Trump's endorsement. Trump backed incumbent chair Joe Gruters for another term after KC Crosbie announced a challenge. The endorsement does not decide the RNC's January election. Truth Social itself was inaccessible, so the post text is corroborated through the public archive and independent reporting.
