Trump has announced a massive White House shakeup writing on Truth Social:

I am pleased to announce that Mr. Stephen Miller, the current Deputy Chief of Staff of the Trump Administration, and one of my most trusted advisors, will become the Chief of Staff starting Monday, November 9, 2026. Susie Wiles, who has done an outstanding job, will be moving over to the Trump Political Operation. I want to thank her for her service as Chief of Staff — She has done a great job! President DONALD J. TRUMP

A new report from Politico details how some Republicans are already panicking about 2028 and the electoral map.

Big wins for Democrats in traditionally red states such as Texas and Kansas have some on the GOP side worried about states once considered near-locks for the party in presidential elections.

“[The mditerms] undoubtedly made the mechanics of winning in 2028 harder for Republicans,” former Trump 2020 campaign manager Bill Stepien told the outlet.

Trump won 312 electoral votes in 2024 to secure the presidency. If the results stayed exactly the same in 2028, but Republicans lost Texas and Kansas as they did in the midterms, they would secure 272 electoral votes and the presidency. That doesn’t include other states that Trump won in 2024, and saw Democratic gains in the midterms.

The hosts of Fox & Friends melted down over the media’s coverage of “hot” Democrats elected to Congress this week.

Taking aim at “the left’s obsession over this new class of lawmakers,” the hosts singled out a Vogue article that described Abdul El-Sayed and Jon Ossoff as “easy-on-the-eyes politicos” and “positively handsome.”

Host Lawrence Jones contrasted that coverage with the magazine’s treatment of Melania Trump. “You had an actual supermodel, the first lady, she can’t get on the cover,” he griped. “But these guys manage to get on the cover of Vogue.”

60 Minutes is set to air an interview with President Donald Trump on Sunday, following the Republican Party’s crippling midterm losses, CNN reported.

CBS News correspondent Ross Douthat taped the segment at the White House on Friday, the outlet reported.

Republican Anthony Constantino was projected to win New York’s 21st Congressional District, while Republican Rep. Jeff Hurd was projected to win reelection in Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District, The Associated Press reported Friday.

The projected results brought Democrats’ House total to 253 seats, compared with 157 for Republicans, as of Friday.

Rep. James Comer, the Kentucky Republican who chairs the House Oversight Committee, offered no assurance of support for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Friday.

Democrats have said they will push to impeach Hegseth, and administration officials are reportedly considering ousting him.

“What do you want to see done with Pete Hegseth?” a NewsNation host asked Comer.

“That’s gonna be a decision that President Trump’s going to have to make,” Comer replied. “But I can tell you with a high level of confidence that there’s a lot of questions about Hegseth. We have no idea what the strategy is moving forward in Iran. No one’s happy about Iran, and I think the Republican voters are more upset about what’s going on in Iran than the Democrat voters.”

Prior to the midterms, it was suggested that Pete Hegseth might make a play for Marsha Blackburn’s Tennessee Senate seat, assuming it became vacant when she won her race to become the Volunteer State’s next governor, as a means of escaping angry Democrats on Capitol Hill.

Blackburn did indeed win the governor’s manion, as it happens, but Hegseth is reportedly not in contention to be her replacement after all, leaving him trapped inside the Pentagon – unless Trump fires him.

Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed has already found something he wants to work with President Donald Trump on – cutting aid to Israel.

The Michigan Democrat, who has been an outspoken critic of Israeli leadership during the war in Gaza, which he calls a genocide, backed Trump’s idea to cut $4 billion in aid to Israel by the end of the year, saying that he would “love to work with him on doing that.”

“I don’t think we should be continuing to subsidize a foreign military that has done the worst things with our money,” El-Sayed told the hosts of MS NOW’s Morning Joe Thursday.

“In fact, I don’t know that we should be continuing to sell weapons to a country that is, again, using our weapons to do awful things.”

Ruby red Texas went so blue during the GOP’s crushing midterm defeat that Democrat James Talarico got more early votes than Republican Ken Paxton got in total.

Talarico defeated Paxton with more than 5.4 million votes in a blue tsunami that hit their state, as well as other reliably Republican states such as Iowa and Kansas.

Paxton got 4,249,373 total votes, including 3,232,667 early votes, according to data from Texas Secretary of State Robert S Howden’s office.
