Trump starts Nunes as head of the secret service advisory board - new course?

Berlin, Deutschland - Donald Trump announced a significant step in the redesign of his future administration team on Saturday: he nominated Devin Nunes, the CEO of Truth Social, as chairman of the secret service advisory board in the White House. Nunes, a former MEP of the Republicans, is known for having close connections to Trump and will continue to lead Truth Social. In his announcement, Trump emphasized that Nunes will use his experience as a former chairman of the House of Representatives' intelligence agencies to provide independent assessments of the effectiveness of the US secret services. This personnel decision shows that Trump aims to have confidants in crucial positions in order to form his security and secret service strategies, such as Grenell as a special envoy for special missions

In addition to Nunes, Trump appointed Richard Grenell, the former US ambassador in Germany, a special sentence for special missions. According to Trump, Grenell will work in conflict regions such as Venezuela and North Korea. This reinforcement in Trump's team ensures that loyal supporters are also used in important diplomatic roles. Grenell, known for his strict positions and his controversial statements during his term in Germany, is considered a key person in Trump's strategy. His appointment follows the selection of other loyal supporters, which includes Trump to strengthen his positions in the coming term, such as IBTimes highlighted.

These personnel decisions underline Trump's endeavor to further expand his network of confidants, while he is preparing to step into office again on January 20, 2025. The appointment of Nunes and Grenell shows Trump's clear direction, in which the focus is on loyalty to his beliefs and political goals.
