In the aftermath of the Republican bloodbath in the midterms, we’ve already seen several big shake-ups in the Trump administration.
Perhaps the most notable is President Trump’s appointment of Stephen Miller as his new White House Chief of Staff.
During an interview on
CBS News‘
’60 Minutes‘ program, President Trump was asked if we can expect to see any additional firings.
President Trump’s response was straightforward.
While he didn’t name anyone, President Trump confirmed he plans to make
“a few changes” to his cabinet.
Watch his full answer here:
More changes coming:
60 Minutes: "Do you expect to fire anyone from your team?"
President Trump: "Yeah, I do. A little bit. A little bit. I love my Cabinet, I think they're good. But I’ll be doing maybe a few changes."

If you want to watch the full thing, here’s President Trump’s full
’60 Minutes’ interview:
Notably, President Trump’s
’60 Minutes’ interview was filmed prior to his announcement that Stephen Miller will be replacing Susie Wiles as his top advisor.
It remains to be seen which additional cabinet changes he has planned.
Notably, his remarks come as Democrats (and some Republicans) are pushing to impeach two of his officials: Attorney General Todd Blanche and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
During the interview, President Trump stood by Hegseth, re-iterating that he supports him and does not plan to fire him.
More from
The Hill:
Two House Democrats, Reps. Hank Johnson (Ga.) and Deborah Ross (N.C.), voiced their support Thursday for impeachment efforts against these officials in an interview with SiriusXM’s “The Dan Abrams Show.”
The calls for Hegseth’s impeachment came from the Republican side as well, with Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) telling CNN he plans to call for a vote to impeach the defense secretary. The Kentucky Republican also posted on social media saying his impeachment resolution is “a much gentler version of what’s coming when Dem’s control Congress. They’ll have hearings & trials.”
Hegseth slammed Massie’s call for his impeachment in a video posted to social platform X, saying, “A disgruntled, defeated congressman, along with all his Democrat allies, has also dropped sham articles of impeachment against yours truly.”
Trump reiterated that he has confidence in Hegseth when pressed by Douthat in the 60 Minutes interview, again replying “I do.”
“Look, we’ve won two wars. We’ve won Venezuela and taken out billions and billions and billions of dollars already … We won that war in less than one hour,” he continued. As Douthat asked if he credited Hegseth for the wins, Trump said, “No. But he was a part of it.”
The midterms were followed by the departure of a handful of administration officials. On Friday, the president announced his chief of staff, Susie Wiles, was leaving the White House and longtime adviser Stephen Miller would take her place. A day earlier, Harmeet Dhillon, the assistant attorney general for the Civil Rights Division at the Justice Department resigned.
