White House deputy chief of staff Richard Walters is leaving his post after Stephen Miller was named chief of staff. Miller said in a statement that Walters has been an invaluable member of the White House and will keep helping the administration from outside. Fox News reports that President Donald Trump chose to replace chief of staff Susie Wiles with Miller, and that Walters was a longtime ally of Wiles. The departure is described as developing, and the articles do not give a date for Walters's exit.
