White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and his immediate family dumped seven-figures’ worth of stock in August — including shares of several defense contractors — to comply with federal conflicts of interest rules and laws, according to a new government ethics document.

Miller and his wife, Katie Miller, who served as an adviser for DOGE before leaving the White House in May, jettisoned shares of Amazon (up to $515,000), Palantir Technologies Inc. (up to $250,000), GE Aerospace (up to $250,000), Microsoft (up to $50,000) and IonQ (up to $50,000), the document states.

Miller reported selling these and other stock shares on Aug. 14 — more than nine months after Donald Trump first announced that Miller would serve in the dual White House roles of deputy chief of staff for policy and homeland security adviser.
