23.11.2024The Day Cabinet Choices Completed The Circle
Trump's final cabinet selections materialized throughout the day, starting with Scott Bessent for Treasury in the morning. Bessent's nomination, despite his past connections to Democratic figures, signaled pragmatic economic priorities. By afternoon, Russell Vought emerged as budget chief and Lori Chavez-DeRemer for Labor.
The cabinet formation concluded in evening with Brooke Rollins for Agriculture and Sebastian Gorka's return as counterterrorism adviser. The selections prompted immediate resistance planning from Democratic states, particularly regarding immigration enforcement.
NATO called emergency talks following Russian hypersonic missile strikes on Ukraine, while blue states began dismantling migrant shelter infrastructure ahead of anticipated policy shifts. The UN climate financing deal reached $300 billion as the incoming administration signaled plans to withdraw support.
Markets responded to Bessent's selection with cautious optimism, while Congress prepared for confirmation battles, particularly over health agency nominations.
