Trump Overrules Musk, Appoints Scott Besant as Finance Minister, Names Lori Chavez-DeRemer to Labor Department

The Donald Trump will take oath as the next President of America in January next year. Before this, he is continuously selecting his ministers and officials. Now he has chosen Republican Party’s American representative Lori Chavez-DeRemer to lead the Labor Department. At the same time, he will nominate Dr. Janet Neshewat as Surgeon General and George Soros’ former money manager Scott Besant to lead the Finance Minister. Let us tell you, Elon Musk had suggested Howard Lutnick’s name as Finance Minister. But on the contrary, Trump has appointed a candidate of his own choice. He has chosen hedge fund veteran Scott Besant for this department. Newly elected President Trump had made announcements for top administrative posts on Friday.

Donald Trump appointed Alex Wong as Principal Deputy National Security Advisor and Dr. Sebastian Gorka as Senior Director for Anti-Terrorism. In addition, former MP Dr. Dave Weldon has been chosen as the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Marty Makary for FDA (Food and Drug Administration) Commissioner and Scott Turner as the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development.

Russell Thurlow Watt has been appointed as the Director of the US Office of Management and Budget (OMB). All the appointments will be effective from January 20 next year, when Trump will be sworn in as the 47th President of America. Let us tell you, the nominations need to be confirmed by the US Senate before the candidates are sworn in to their respective posts. Trump said, ‘Scott is widely respected as one of the world’s leading international investors and geopolitical and economic strategists. Scott’s story is that of the American Dream. Besant is an American investor, philanthropist and teacher. He is the founder and CEO of Key Square Group.’

He further said that DeRemer’s support from the business and labor communities will ensure that the Labor Department will be able to achieve all the success. Along with this, she will be able to make America more prosperous than before. In addition, he also said that Dr. Neshevat is a strong communicator for preventive medicine and public health. She is committed to ensuring that Americans have access to affordable, quality health care and believes in empowering people to take responsibility for their health to live long, healthy lives.

Alex Wong has served as Deputy Special Representative for North Korea and Deputy Assistant Secretary for East Asian and Pacific Affairs at the State Department during his first term. He was also Trump’s nominee for US Ambassador to the United Nations for Special Political Affairs in his first term.
