## Summary

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said he would not work with Stephen Miller, whom President Donald Trump has appointed as White House chief of staff, citing what he called Miller’s extremism. Jeffries said Democrats would oppose the administration’s policies, arguing that voters had rejected MAGA politics in recent elections.

Jeffries said his contact with departing chief of staff Susie Wiles would not carry over to Miller. He accused Miller of driving mass deportations and linked the administration’s actions to the deaths of Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good; the article says federal agents allegedly shot both. The White House defended Miller’s record on immigration, crime and other policies. Jeffries also backed a planned resolution by Republican Thomas Massie to impeach Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth.
