- Stephen Miller has become Trump’s White House chief of staff.
- The podcast explores Miller’s background and hardline views.

## Summary

Jonathan Yerushalmy and Reged Ahmad discuss Democrats’ failed attempt to impeach US defence secretary Pete Hegseth and whether another effort may follow. They also examine Stephen Miller’s appointment as White House chief of staff, which is presented as a sign that Donald Trump is not planning to seek compromise with political opponents despite suggesting otherwise after Republican losses in the midterms.

Miller is known for shaping Trump’s hardline immigration policies and has been condemned as a white nationalist. The podcast looks at how his views developed, including the contrast between those views and his family’s history of fleeing persecution. The article provides no vote count or further details about the impeachment effort.
