Democratic strategist David Axelrod argued President-elect Trump's second administration has a "wholly different feel" from his first team.

An attorney helping President-elect Donald Trump assemble his new administration warned career employees at the U.S. Justice Department on Monday that they could be fired if they tried to resist the Republican's agenda.

Elon Musk may be the richest person in the world, CEO of the most overvalued car company in the world and was rumored to functionally be Trump's co-President. Yet, despite all of his financial success, he's never been able to escape one simple truth: He is a deeply unlikable person. He can blame it on his reportedly self-diagnosed autism, but no one wants to be his friend including the Trump team, apparently, with some members telling the Daily Beast he's the "guest who wouldn't leave." Former Fox News host Gretchen Carlson said she was "stunned" Tuesday by Donald Trump's intention to nominate Fox & Friends host Pete Hegseth as his Secretary of Defense. "From silly diner interviews on Weekend Fox and Friends to Secretary of Defense?" Carlson wrote on X. "I never thought I'd say I'm stunned about any pick after the election but nominating Pete Hegseth for this incredibly important role? Yes he's a veteran ... and?" Others with ties to Fox were "stunned" as well, but in a more posi After all that election night excitement, it seems Elon Musk just doesn't want to go home. Multiple sources have told CNN that amid the post-victory buzz around Mar-a-Lago, the Tesla CEO has been at Donald Trump's Florida resort almost every single day over the past week, with Instagram posts under the location tag showing him dining with the president-elect and his wife on Sunday, as well as spending time on the grounds with his son over the weekend. "Dining with him on the patio at times, toda Trump wins. Ouch! How did the Democrats lose to Donald Trump: the man they mocked and ridiculed as an evil charlatan, a fascist, a felon? How embarrassing! That question will first lead the Democrats to finger-pointing. But ultimately they must look in the mirror, because Trump didn't win: The Democrats lost—and they will keep losing if they don't learn the lessons. Satellite images, government notices and social media footage reveal extensive construction of multiple villages in a remote Himalayan valley claimed by both China and Bhutan. A CNN investigation has found that China has been conducting extensive development in the valley, known as Jigenong in Chinese and Jakarlung in Tibetan. Disputed territories: The Chinese government has incentivized settlers to move to these newly built villages, including Demalong and others, in the area. Donald Trump has long viewed the nation's spy services with suspicion, accusing them of trying to undermine his first term and campaigns. Now that he's returning to the White House, Trump's promises to overhaul the U.S. intelligence agencies put him on a collision course with one of most secretive and powerful parts of government. Trump announced Tuesday that he is nominating John Ratcliffe to lead the CIA. CANBERRA (Reuters) -China is stepping up pressure on the Philippines to concede its sovereign rights in the South China Sea, Manila's Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro said on Tuesday after meeting his Australian counterpart in Canberra.
