Today is the first day for President Trump’s new chief of staff, Stephen Miller, known for leading Trump’s extremely hard line on immigration and mass deportations.

But in a "60 Minutes" interview that aired on CBS last night, Trump said that his administration's deportation policy may have gone too far — and Trump has indicated he wants to work more closely with the incoming Democratic majority in Congress next year.

Democratic lawmakers have expressed astonishment at the announcement and have said they'll push back on any extremism.
