Trump's Cabinet to feature notable diversity with key appointments

President-elect Donald Trump's incoming Cabinet is expected to be less diverse than President Joe Biden's. However, it will include notable appointments, such as Florida Sen. Marco Rubio as the first Latino secretary of state and Scott Bessent as the first openly gay Treasury secretary. The Cabinet will consist of one-third women, with Susie Wiles as the first female White House chief of staff. Scott Turner, a Black former NFL player, will serve as secretary of housing and urban development, marking a continuation of diversity in that role. Other high-profile appointments include Tulsi Gabbard, of Samoan descent, as director of national intelligence, and Mehmet Oz, a Turkish American, as head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The administration will also feature a range of ideological perspectives among its nominees.
