President Donald Trump announced four key leaders to serve as his White House staff, including long-time allies Dan Scavino and Stephen Miller.

Trump shared the news in a statement posted Wednesday on Truth Social.

“Dan, Stephen, James, and Taylor were ‘best in class’ advisors on my winning campaign, and I know they will honorably serve the American people in the White House” Trump wrote. “They will continue to work hard to Make America Great Again in their respective new roles.”

Scavino, a longtime confidant and social media strategist for former President Donald Trump, has been named Assistant to the President and Deputy Chief of Staff. Scavino, known for his digital expertise and steadfast loyalty, will continue his role as one of Trump’s closest advisors, with a focus on strengthening the administration’s connection with voters through effective communication.

Stephen Miller, a key figure from Trump’s first term, has been appointed Homeland Security Advisor, Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, and Assistant to the President. Miller, recognized for his hardline stance on immigration and national security, is expected to lead major initiatives on border security and homeland defense.

James Blair will serve as Assistant to the President and Deputy Chief of Staff for Legislative, Political, and Public Affairs. In this role, Blair will be responsible for managing legislative relations, political strategy, and public outreach efforts for the administration.

Taylor Budowich, who played a central role in shaping Trump’s communication strategy, will take on the position of Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications and Personnel, Assistant to the President. Budowich will oversee internal messaging and the management of White House staff to ensure a cohesive administration.

These appointments reflect Trump’s focus on loyalty and experience as he prepares to confront domestic and international challenges in his second term. As the president-elect finalizes his team, these senior officials will play crucial roles in advancing his agenda and navigating the complexities of Washington politics.

The appointments also came on the same day that Trump announced several other important leadership roles, including the nomination of Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz as Attorney General, as RSBN previously reported.

Trump also announced former Hawaiian Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard as his Director of National Intelligence.
