In the wake of President-elect Donald Trump's forthcoming administration, senior adviser and attorney Alina Habba has dismissed rumors of her potential appointment as press secretary.

Despite the "support and speculation" surrounding her, Habba took to the social media platform X to clarify her position. "Although I love screaming from a podium, I will be better served in other capacities," she stated, adding a note of optimism about the future, "this administration is going to be epic!"

As reported by Fox News, the list of potential candidates for the press secretary role includes Karoline Leavitt, Trump campaign national press secretary, Monica Crowley, a former Trump administration official, Sage Steele, a former ESPN host, Scott Jennings, a CNN contributor, and Elizabeth Pipko, an RNC spokeswoman. The press secretary's role, one of the most visible within the White House, involves daily press briefings with the White House press corps, speaking on behalf of the president.

The forthcoming Trump administration is set to challenge long-standing traditions that favor mainstream media outlets.

As Trump continues to assemble his cabinet ahead of his inauguration as the 47th president of the U.S. in January, some congressional Republicans have expressed concerns about the potential appointment of Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., as attorney general. Gaetz, who resigned from Congress on Wednesday following his selection by Trump, may face a challenging confirmation path due to a previous Department of Justice (DOJ) investigation into sex trafficking allegations. Gaetz's office stated last year that the DOJ had concluded their investigation and determined he would not be charged with any crimes.

In another surprising move, Tulsi Gabbard, a former Democratic congresswoman from Hawaii who became an independent in 2022 and joined the GOP last month, has been selected by Trump to serve as director of national intelligence in his new Cabinet. This selection underscores the administration's commitment to a conservative agenda, even as it navigates the complexities of a diverse political landscape.
