Transfer of presidential power from Joe Biden to Donald Trump
Second presidential transition of Donald Trump

On August 27, attorney Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and former congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard were also selected as honorary co-chairs, both of whom were former Democrats that had recently endorsed Trump.[5] Kennedy had originally mounted an independent presidential bid before withdrawing from the race to endorse Trump, reportedly in exchange for a Cabinet position in his administration.[6]
In October, The New York Times noted how Trump had refused to sign standard agreements around ethics and disclosure in order to begin key aspects of the transition process. The internal ethics pledges signed by Trump staff so far have been more lenient than standard pledges signed by Harris's transition team and the Trump team does not have to disclose its donors to the transition effort until Trump signs the agreements.[7] Furthermore, the General Services Administration cannot supply any assistance such as office space or IT equipment until the agreements are signed, leading the Partnership for Public Service to call the delay a "tremendous and unnecessary" national security risk.[8] In October, Politico reported on how potential conflicts of interest surrounding co-chair Howard Lutnick had created tension within the transition team and criticism of the transition effort.[9] On November 24, Politico described Trump's refusal to accept federal transition assistance as a potential national security concern and "unprecedented in the modern presidential system". It highlighted their refusal as having "freed the Trump transition from having to abide by a $5,000 cap on donations and a requirement to disclose their donors".[10]
On November 26, Trump signed a transition agreement that allows his staff to work with federal agencies and access information. Trump's transition team ruled out signing a memorandum of understanding with the General Services Administration, instead opting to use an independently drafted ethics plan; an agreement with the Department of Justice, which allows background checks and security clearances with the Federal Bureau of Investigation required for Senate confirmation of certain positions, was belatedly signed on December 3.[11][12][13]
Beginning of transition process
In the early morning of November 6, major news outlets projected that Trump would win the 2024 presidential election. During her concession speech that evening, Vice President Kamala Harris committed to a peaceful transition of power.[14] The following day, President Joe Biden appeared at a press event at the Rose Garden where he named "the steps he was taking" in coordinating a White House transition.[15]
On November 9, in a statement from White House Press SecretaryKarine Jean-Pierre, it was announced President-elect Donald Trump would meet with Biden the following Wednesday, on Biden's own invitation.[16] Trump and Biden met in the Oval Office on November 13 for slightly less than two hours, with both calling for a "smooth transition" and Trump expressing his appreciation for Biden's efforts.[17] Trump's Mar-a-Lago became the center of the transition process, with job-seekers, media, and Trump friends and advisors filling the resort and nearby West Palm Beach hotels.[18]
On three separate occasions during the 2024 campaign, Trump had promised that, should he win the election, he would bring the Russian invasion of Ukraine to an end during the transition period, assuring voters that this would happen "before I even arrive at the Oval Office, shortly after we win the presidency" (said in June), "before I even become president" (September), and "while I'm president-elect" (October), and that he would need only 24 hours to accomplish this task. On January 19, 2025, The New York Times reported that not only had Trump failed to bring the war to an end, but he had "also made no known serious effort to resolve the war since his election in November".[20]
On November 7, Susie Wiles was announced as the White House Chief of Staff. She will begin her duties following Donald Trump's inauguration on January 20, 2025. She will be the first woman to hold this position.[24] Wiles had previously worked as a campaign manager for Trump's presidential campaigns in 2016, 2020, and 2024.[25]
On November 9, it was reported that Robert Lighthizer would be re-appointed to the role of US Trade Representative.[26] Four days later, it was reported that Lighthizer would instead likely take the White House position of "trade czar".[27]
On November 10, Trump announced that Tom Homan, who previously served as the acting director of ICE in the last Trump administration, would be appointed "border czar" with full oversight of border controls north and south of the US.[28][29] Aside from the positions listed below, Trump has also nominated as key White House staffers former Cabinet Secretary Bill McGinley as his next White House Counsel[30] and real estate investor Steve Witkoff as his special envoy to the Middle East.[31]
On November 15, The Wall Street Journal reported that Trump was considering Fox Business host and former director of the National Economic CouncilLarry Kudlow for a "senior economic role",[60] and Trump announced that Steven Cheung and Sergio Gor would serve as White House communications director and personnel director, respectively.[61] Also, Trump, in a statement, confirmed that alongside his nomination for Secretary of the Interior, Doug Burgum would serve as Energy Czar, "chairman of the newly formed, and very important, National Energy Council which will consist of all departments and agencies involved in the permitting, production, generation, distribution, regulation, transportation of all forms of American energy."[62] Former press secretary of Trump's third presidential campaignKaroline Leavitt was confirmed as White House Press Secretary, the youngest to ever be appointed to this position.[63]
On November 16, Trump announced Chris Wright, the chief executive of oil and natural gas fracking services company Liberty Energy as his nominee for Secretary of Energy. He also announced that Wright will also serve as part of the new National Energy Council. Wright has acknowledged the link between burning fossil fuels and climate change but has expressed doubt that climate change is linked to worsening extreme weather. A staunch supporter of fossil fuels in public interviews, he considers them as necessary to lift the developing world out of poverty.[64][65][66]
On November 21, former Representative Matt Gaetz announced his withdrawal from consideration as Trump's Attorney General pick, reportedly due to lack of support for his nomination in the Senate.[75] Former Florida Attorney GeneralPam Bondi was announced as the new nominee for Attorney General.[76][77][78][79]
On December 1, Trump announced Lebanese-American businessman and Tiffany Trump's father-in-law Massad Boulos as the Senior Advisor to the President on Arab and Middle Eastern Affairs.[115]
On January 2, Trump nominated Charles and Potomac Capital CEO Joe Popolo to be Ambassador to the Netherlands;[173] León Medical Centers founder Benjamin Leon to be Ambassador to Spain;[174] and Ken Kies for Assistant Treasury Secretary For Tax Policy;[175] Alexandra Preate for senior counsel to the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, David Katz for Treasury Chief of Staff, Cora Alvi and Samantha Schwab for Treasury Deputy Chief of Staff, granddaughter of founder, chairman, and former CEO of Charles Schwab CorporationCharles R. Schwab, and Hunter McMaster for Director of Policy Planning, nephew of South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster.[176][177]
On January 10, Trump said he had picked Ed Russo to lead the Environmental Advisory Task Force. Trump also announced that Bill Briggs will be the Deputy Administrator of the Small Business Administration.
Despite the nature of the 2024 House elections that left Republicans with a narrow majority, Trump has picked several incumbent House members for his cabinet. Mike Johnson, the Republican Speaker, raised concern about too many special elections throwing the majority back into chaos. Trump has so far picked three House members, but is not expected to nominate more.[195]
Withdrew from consideration
On November 21, Matt Gaetz withdrew his name from consideration for Attorney General. He is replaced as Donald Trump's nominee by Pam Bondi, the former Attorney General of Florida.[196]
On December 3, Chad Chronister withdrew his name from consideration for Administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration. Trump has not yet announced a replacement.[197]

Ancient tribe in Central Europe For the contemporary Germanic dialect group in northern Italy, see Cimbrian language. The Cimbri (Greek Κίμβροι, Kímbroi; Latin Cimbri) were an ancient tribe in Europe. Ancient authors described them variously as a Celtic people (or Gaulish), Germanic people, or even Cimmerian. Several ancient sources indicate that they lived in Jutland, which in some classical texts was called the Cimbrian peninsula. There is no direct evidence for the language they sp...
