Where Trump's cabinet stands
President-elect Trump’s second term team is taking shape, as he stocks his new administration with border hawks and conservative foreign policy luminaries to implement his agenda.
The latest:
- Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) has reportedly been tapped for Secretary of State, although Trump has not made the pick official. Rubio would round out a national security team of China and Iran hawks, including Rep. Mike Waltz (R-Fla) as national security adviser and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) as ambassador to the United Nations. Rubio’s reported pick received bipartisan praise, including from Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) and “Never Trump” former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.).
- Trump will reportedly nominate South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) to lead the Department of Homeland Security. Noem will oversee the U.S. border in that role, alongside “border czar” Tom Homan and policy adviser Stephen Miller.
- Trump officially announced former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) will be the U.S. ambassador to Israel. Huckabee is the father of former White House spokeswoman and current Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R).

- United Nations Ambassador: Stefanik “has been an outspoken critic of the United Nations and a staunch ally of Israel.” Read 5........
