Former Democrat Tulsi Gabbard has been appointed as the US Intelligence Chief by Donald Trump, who is poised to return to the White House following his win over Kamala Harris in the November 5 US presidential elections. The leader, aged 78, has won all seven swing states: Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Nevada.
Trump met President Joe Biden in the Oval Office of the White House on Wednesday evening (IST). Biden welcomed Trump and congratulated him on his victory, expressing his anticipation of a smooth transition. "Congratulations, looking forward to having a, like we said, smooth transition -- do everything we can to make sure you're accommodated, and what you need." "And we're going to discuss some of that today," Biden said during the meeting with Trump.
Donald Trump's team is compiling a list of Pentagon officers to dismiss, as per a report.
Members of US President-elect Donald Trump's transition team are outlining potential military officers to terminate, which may include the Joint Chiefs of Staff, according to Reuters.
The process of planning the terminations is in its early stages following Donald Trump's election victory on November 5 and could evolve as his administration forms.
On Wednesday, Donald Trump appointed Florida senator and vocal China critic Marco Rubio as secretary of state.
