Democrats and Republicans weigh whether to negotiate immigration policy with new White House chief of staff Stephen Miller
Stephen Miller replaced Susie Wiles as White House chief of staff. President Trump told 60 Minutes he would be open to an immigration deal with Democrats and conceded his crackdown may have hurt Republicans in the midterms. Maryland Gov. Wes Moore said Democrats should negotiate with Miller despite deep distrust, while House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said he has no interest in working with Miller.

The split, in one line
Coverage splits on whether Miller is a deal-maker Democrats can negotiate with or a hard-liner they should refuse. Moore's openness and Jeffries' refusal sit side by side, and Trump's own concession is barely mentioned outside one outlet.
