Young blood is here.
President-elect Donald Trump has gone full throttle for a new generation of leaders.
Consider these Trump nominees for Cabinet posts:
- Lee Zeldin, 44, for EPA administrator.
- Pete Hegseth, 44, for secretary of defense.

Not everyone welcomes the generational change. When smears and media leaks about nominees’ backgrounds appear, be sure something is happening in the political establishment of Washington.
Sen. JD Vance, Trump’s running mate, was labeled “weird” during the campaign. Gabbard isn’t “equipped” to be DNI. Patel hasn’t “built up the muscles” to lead the FBI….
