President-elect Donald Trump has picked Fox News host Pete Hegseth to be secretary of defense, the former president announced Tuesday night. Hegseth, 44, is an Army veteran who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, and has an undergraduate degree from Princeton and a graduate degree from Harvard.

When Tom Homan left the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency in 2018, he didn’t go far from Donald Trump’s administration – he joined Fox News as a paid contributor and used the platform to argue for aggressive border enforcement.

In addition to tapping the 'Fox & Friends' weekend host and Army veteran for a cabinet post, the president-elect announced that he'd be partnering with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy on efforts to increase government efficiency.
