Breaking news out of Washington: Susie Wiles, President Trump’s chief of staff and arguably the most powerful person in the White House after the president himself, has resigned effective immediately.
Her departure follows weeks of mounting chaos inside the administration, including the Texas election loss, DOJ turmoil, ethics officials stepping down, and renewed controversy around the Epstein files.
Sources say Wiles cited irreconcilable differences over how President Trump is handling the growing number of scandals and the constant blame game inside the West Wing.
Despite working long hours to keep the administration functioning, she reportedly became the latest scapegoat after Trump privately blamed her for the Texas defeat.
The resignation is a major blow. The chief of staff is the backbone of any White House, and Wiles’ exit marks the seventh senior official to leave in just the first two months of 2026. While Trump claims “fake news” forced her hand, the reality points to deep instability.
With midterms approaching, this shake-up raises serious questions about whether the administration can govern effectively going forward.
