White House chief of staff Susie Wiles forcefully rejected a Friday night report alleging she plans to step down after the November midterms, slamming the story as a “piece of fiction.”
Wiles, 69, issued the rare public rebuke in a fiery statement posted to X shortly after the Daily Mail published an article alleging she was gearing up to leave, in part due to supposed turmoil with President Trump over his recent cabinet appointments.
“To be crystal clear, I am not going anywhere,” Wiles wrote. “I am honored and proud to serve President Trump, proud of our team and remain fully committed to advancing his agenda on behalf of the American people.”
She accused elements of the media of spending a decade trying to “manufacture drama” around Trump.
“They were wrong then, and they are wrong now,” she said.
“See you Monday.”
