President-elect Donald Trump issued a slew of nominations on Wednesday, including for positions at NASA and the Army. Peter Navarro was tapped on Wednesday to serve as his Senior Counselor for Trade and Manufacturing.
Among those nominated was Daniel P. Driscoll for Secretary of the Army. Trump wrote that "as a former Soldier, Investor, and Political Advisor, Dan brings a powerful combination of experiences to serve as a disruptor and change agent." Driscoll completed Army Ranger school, and was deployed with the 10th Mountain Division as a Cavalry Scout Platoon Leader in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Following his service, Driscoll most recently served as Senior Advisor to Vice President JD Vance. "Dan will be a fearless and relentless fighter for America’s Soldiers and America First agenda.
Trump also announced that Adam Boehler was selected to serve as his Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs, being given the personal rank of ambassador. " Adam worked for me as a Lead Negotiator on the Abraham Accords team. He has negotiated with some of the toughest people in the World, including the Taliban, but Adam knows that NO ONE is tougher than the United States of America, at least when President Trump is its Leader. Adam will work tirelessly to bring our Great American Citizens HOME," Trump wrote.

Also nominated was Jared Isaacman for Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), who Trump said will "drive NASA’s mission of discovery and inspiration, paving the way for groundbreaking achievements in Space science, technology, and exploration." Trump noted that Isaacman co-founded and served as CEO of defense aerospace company Draken International "for over a decade, supporting the US Department of Defense, and our Allies."

“CEO of defense aerospace company Draken International”
Ah—maybe they have some of the legacy program alien craft.
Love the Draken name....
lol
Pleeeeeeze fire bill nelson.
I thought NASA’s primary mission was celebrating Muslim contributions to science. Jared Isaacman does not sound like a Muslim name.
Were he not already pegged for DOGE, I think Elon Musk would make a great NASA head.
Isaacman is a “billionaire SpaceX astronaut; almost as good a choice as Elon, eh?
Fire Bill Nelson?
Yes, he suffers from being in Space too long a time.
Go home Bill, you are done.
Trump allows the left to get complacent and then here he comes steam-rolling them once again.
They are still implementing their “derail the Hegseth nomination” plan and here he is today with several new nominations. As far as I can tell, none of these were leaked before his announcement.
Fire Nelson and put him on trial!
I second that!
He’s fired. SpaceX loving billionaire to replace him
