Susie Wiles Is Cancer-Free

What happened

The facts the coverage agrees on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum. Where the sides dispute something, it's attributed.

Susie Wiles, the White House chief of staff, said Wednesday that she is cancer-free after a March diagnosis of early-stage breast cancer. Wiles had kept working at or near full capacity during treatment, running White House business and attending events with President Trump. Trump first disclosed her diagnosis in March and praised her as a strong adviser with an excellent prognosis. He said then that she would keep working during treatment. In her post, Wiles thanked family, friends, doctors, and people who prayed for or supported her. She also thanked Trump for his “unwavering support.” Wiles said Mayo Clinic pathology results from an appointment earlier this week came back clear. She said she would keep working to advance Trump’s “America First Agenda.”
