President Trump recently announced the appointment of Chad Mizelle as the Chief of Staff at the Department of Justice. Mizelle, a staunch supporter of Trump’s policies, previously served as the acting general counsel at the Department of Homeland Security.
Background and Role
During Trump’s first term, Mizelle played a pivotal role in crafting and defending the administration’s border security and deportation strategies. In his new position, Mizelle will collaborate with Pam Bondi, the nominee for Attorney General, to fulfill Trump’s campaign promise of mass deportations.
Trump’s Endorsement
In a statement on Truth Social, Trump praised Mizelle, calling him a ‘MAGA warrior’ who will restore accountability and integrity to the Department of Justice. Mizelle’s close ties to key figures like Stephen Miller and his wife’s judicial appointment underscore his strong connections within the Trump administration.
New Nomination and Vision
