President-elect Donald Trump has nominated a flurry of allies to Cabinet posts over the past seven days, with his timing and picks coming as a marked shift from his first term in office. 

Since Nov. 11, Trump has named 11 candidates who require Senate confirmation to head Washington’s executive departments. He has additionally tapped at least 11 people to fill coveted advisory and staffing positions in the West Wing after winning the 2024 presidential election 11 days ago. Trump has also appointed billionaires Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk to head the new Department of Government Efficiency, which will seek to slash bureaucratic waste and inefficiency.
