In Historic Move, President-Elect Donald Trump Appoints Campaign Chief Susie Wiles as White House Chief of Staff

In a groundbreaking decision for the United States, President-elect Donald Trump announced yesterday, November 7, 2024, that Susie Wiles, who led his election campaign, will serve as the White House Chief of Staff.

Her selection as Chief of Staff reflects Trump’s intention to build a politically savvy and experienced administration.

In this strategic role, Wiles will oversee White House operations and manage the Trump administration’s staff, a critical responsibility amid the significant challenges facing the United States on the global stage.

The political landscape in the U.S. is closely watching Trump’s inauguration, scheduled for January 20, 2025, when Wiles will officially take on her duties as the first woman to lead the White House staff a new milestone for women’s empowerment at the highest levels of government.
