US EditionTop Trump Officials Are Moving Onto Military Bases
At least six senior Trump officials now live in military housing in Washington, limiting availability for top military officers amid rising political violence, The Atlantic reports.
- This year, White House Immigration Policy Advisor Stephen Miller and several senior Trump administration officials moved into Washington-area military housing amid safety fears.
- Amid rising political violence, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and others cited protests and doxxing that made private homes unsafe, prompting moves to military bases.

- Critics argue the moves blur civilian-military boundaries and could politicize the military, while sequestering Trump’s advisers isolates them from the metropolitan area in a protected bubble.
- There is little precedent for so many appointees on bases, though former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo previously lived in military housing; officials suggest the government could build new housing if threats increase.
