Appointment nominations are coming in fast and furious . Some of them are folks you recognize .....many not. There are too many of them to comment on . I found this Forbes article that lists and makes short comments on all to date.(Forbes is subscription but found the article posed on another site )


Trump’s Cabinet And Key Jobs: Herschel Walker Picked For Ambassador Role

Trump's new Chief of Staff Susie Wiles gave marching orders to all his nominees. Stay off of social media.

Quote:

---

While this instruction has been delivered previously, I am reiterating that no member of the incoming administration or Transition speaks for the United States or the President-elect himself…
Accordingly, all intended nominees should refrain from any public social media posts without prior approval of the incoming White House counsel….’
Exclusive | Trump team orders 'all intended nominees' to stop posting on social media ahead of Senate confirmations

It makes sense. They have to answer to Senate inquisitors ;not the Dem trolls or other "influencers" who try to get them to post things that end up being controversial.

There will be enough challenges getting some of his appoints approved .

Yep. Now if they can just get Mr. Trump to stay off of social media. Social media has the terrible quality of allowing people to "speak" with very little thought put into it.

His staff appears to be both culturally and ideologically diverse . That doesn't matter to me per se . It does end the talk of them being a bunch of white guy clones.
I'll start with the latest . Trump named Tammy Bruce to Sec State communications .
She has been a long time talk show and TV personality. Before that she headed National Organization of Women (NOW) . She is also a lesbian.

Mark Cuban once said that Trump doesn't surround himself with strong intelligent women.
Tell that to Susie Wiles his incoming Chief of Staff. Tell that to his Press Sec Karoline Leavitt who will be the youngest to serve at that position. Tell that to native Hawaiian Tulsi Gabbard becoming the National Intelligence Director .Dr. Janette Nesheiwat is to be the next Surgeon General. Attorney General Pam Bondi DHS Kristie Noem.UN Elise Stefanik .Agriculture Brooke Rollins . Education Linda MCMahone.

Marco Rubio will be the first Hispanic Sec State . Scott Bessent for Treasury is going to be highest ranking gay cabinet member (Sec Treasury out ranks Mayor Pete at Transportation). He is also a former Soros protege . HUD Scott Turner (African American) NIH Dr Jay Bhattacharya (born in India) FBI Kash Patel (parents from India )

There are others at assistant level But you get the idea.


Diversity of ideology . He is has RFK JR (HHS) Lori Chavez DeRemer (Labor ) is pro-union .

BTW Once Trump takes the oath he runs the Executive Dept .... right Wrong. While Joe's appointed officers leave with him . The swamp critters remain . Most if not all of Trump's appointees who need Senate confirmation will not be in the government on January 20 . Swamp critters are in charge of the agencies until then.
That makes the order of succession critical.

In an act of spite, Joe did a midnight change of succession to 11 agencies Friday night .

I'll post a couple of them

Executive Order Providing an Order of Succession Within the Department of Justice | The White House

Executive Order on Providing an Order of Succession Within the Department of Homeland Security | The White House

These changes ensure that the people Joe's handlers want in control will be running the agencies in transition.

The above are critically important because the Trump appointees will require security clearance before they can do their jobs; and these agencies clear security clearances.

Joe is doing everything in his power to intentionally sabotage the incoming administration. How do we know this is true ? Yes the above agencies are critical to American security . But does it really matter who is in charge of the US agency for Global Media(USAGM) ? And yet Joe changed the order there also.
Memorandum on the Designation of Officials of the United States Agency for Global Media to Act as Chief Executive Officer | The White House

Could it be that Trump picked Kari Lake to run Voice of America ?

I doubt if Trump or anyone on his transition team was consulted .

In another act designed to handcuff Trump ;Joe made an executive order banning drilling in off shore waters for gas and oil for 625 million acres that covers the entire Atlantic Coast, eastern Gulf of Mexico, the West Coast and Alaska’s Northern Bering Sea . His order is for a 10 years

So Trump can just reverse the decision Right ?
Not necessarily . Trump reversed a similar emperor order in 2017 and envirowackos sued. A liberal judge ruled against Trump

Joe says we already produce enough gas. Of course You can tell by the price of gas and oil
Gas Prices Starting to Rise Again in the New Year

Trump won overwhelmingly saying drill baby drill. But Joe don't care what you think.
