Donald Trump has picked Project 2025 architect Russell Vought to lead the Office of Management and Budget.
In Trump's first term, Vought crafted budget proposals that recommended Social Security and Medicare cuts.

I think DeSantis would probably be okay as SecDef. Heβs a jerk, but heβs not crazy. Heβs a conventional guy; his problem as a GOP presidential candidate was that he couldnβt convincingly play a nut job on TV.
But itβs sad that the best we can hope for these days is βnot crazy.β

I understand that the Trump transition is not submitting nominees for FBI background checks, and that in many cases there appears to be no formal vetting at all.
But are they also not just... uh... googling?
