01:48Trump's New Administration
in Politics
Trump put a Fox News reporter in charge of the Department of Defense.
Defense secretary pick: Pete Hegseth
Hegseth served as an infantry captain in the Army National Guard and did tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, earning two Bronze Stars. He is currently a co-host for “Fox & Friends Weekend.” Trump has pledged to fire generals involved in the 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal and to eliminate “woke” initiatives that focus on diversity and equity in the military. Being a national guardsman doesn't seem like enough experience for Dept of Defense.
White House
Chief of staff: Susie Wiles
Wiles spent the past two years co-running Trump’s campaign and is well-respected as a political operative. She will become the first woman to serve as a White House chief of staff.
CIA director pick: John Ratcliffe
Ratcliffe, the former head of intelligence in the last Trump administration, was selected to lead the CIA. He previously served as a congressman from Texas and Trump, in a statement, called him “a warrior for Truth and Honesty with the American Public.” Ratcliff also served as a member of Trump’s impeachment team during the Democrats’ first effort to block the president-elect from office.
Deputy chief of staff for policy: Stephen Miller
Miller was one of Trump’s closest advisers during his first term and was an architect of policies like a ban on travel from several Muslim-majority countries and family separation. He is expected to lead efforts to enact Trump’s immigration crackdown in a second term.

Part 2: Close Up Radio Welcomes Back George Landrith of Frontiers of Freedom
in Politics
Fairfax, VA - George Landrith, President of Frontiers of Freedom, a leading public policy think tank committed to promoting individual liberty, free markets, a strong national defense, and constitutionally limited government, is proud to announce the release of his new book, “Let Freedom Ring… Again: Can Self-Evident Truths Save America from Further Decline?” Since its release, the book has sparked considerable interest among political commentators and policymakers eager to understand and preserve the foundational principles of American democracy.
“Let Freedom Ring… Again” is not just another book on the political shelf; it is a manifesto for those who advocate for a free and prosperous society grounded in the rule of law. “Citizen engagement is crucial in preserving and defending the liberties that have defined the American experience,” shares Landrith. “This book is as a guide for all Americans to better understand the historical context and contemporary applications of the principles that forged our great nation.”
Landrith highlights the dangers posed by those who seek to dismantle these fundamental principles. “If we hope to remain free and prosperous as a nation, we must be involved and knowledgeable to avoid being misled by those who seek power and control under the guise of promoting freedom,” states Landrith.
Ultimately, Landrith’s book urges Americans across the political spectrum to awaken from civic slumber and engage passionately in the democratic process to ensure the preservation of liberty and opportunity. “We are at an important crossroads,” he concludes, “and it’s imperative that we remain active and vigilant.”
