House Republicans are gathering for their leadership elections before the next Congress, which begins in January. Trump has moved quickly to name loyal aides and allies to key posts in his new administration, as the transition to a second Trump term begins.

Trump has wasted no time in moving to assemble his team for a second term in the White House -- naming Susie Wiles as his chief of staff and New York Rep. Elise Stefanik as U.N. ambassador, among other positions. Inauguration Day is Jan. 20. Trump announced he has nominated former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee to be the U.S. ambassador to Israel.

Donald Trump met with President Biden on Wednesday and announced plans to nominate Rep. Matt Gaetz, Sen. Marco Rubio and Tulsi Gabbard for his Cabinet.
