Who’s who in Trump’s new administration
Trump picks South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem as Homeland Security secretary, CNN reports
Inputs from Bloomberg: President-elect Donald Trump has started to choose the people who he wants to implement his “America first” policies on the border, trade, economy and more.
Several of them are likely to be very tough on China, namely Beijing-sanctioned Senator Marco Rubio who’s expected to be secretary of state, and Congressman Mike Waltz as national security advisor.
Many of them are now serving in the House of Representatives, which threatens to cut into what’s likely a razor-thin majority in the early days of Trump’s new administration.
Here’s a look at some of the people Trump is picking or set to pick:
Marco Rubio, secretary of state
Rubio is a one-time rival of the president-elect who later became one of his biggest supporters in the Senate. He’s also a longtime critic of China, who’s technically barred from entering the country because of those sanctions. Rubio has defended Trump’s position to bring a swift end to Russia’s war in Ukraine, calling for talks that could result in Kyiv giving up occupied territory.
