Susie Wiles’s Son-In-Law Scrubs LinkedIn Posts Bragging About Securing Lucrative Farm Bill Carve-Outs

Bret Worley, the son-in-law of former White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, reportedly deleted his LinkedIn account and posts praising his role in securing a hemp provision in a federal spending bill. The provision delayed a scheduled ban on many hemp-derived THC products, benefiting an industry worth billions of dollars and raising questions about whether family ties influenced policy.

Congress had set a limit of 0.4 milligrams of THC per container, with the ban due to take effect on 12 November. A provision in the Continuing Appropriations Act, signed by President Donald Trump in September, postponed it. Former adviser Calley Means has alleged Wiles influenced hemp policy because of her family; the White House has denied that she lobbied. A 2025 lawsuit also accused Worley of touting political connections, claims that have not been established in the article.
