Our latest mini series is here and this time we're profiling some of the key players in Donald Trump's presidency, who are now running America.
Stephen Miller is one of the most powerful people in government who many have never heard of. He’s the new White House deputy chief of staff for policy. Previously - and unusually - he also served as a senior advisor in President Trump’s first term.
He is the architect behind many of the most controversial Trump policies, and is often seen next to the president in the Oval Office. So who is he and how has he survived so long?
Anthony is joined by Jonathan Blitzer, a staff writer at The New Yorker who has followed Miller’s political career, and former camp-mate Chris Moody, who reveals what a teenage Miller was really like.
