President Donald Trump has named Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard to his transition team, should he win a second term in the White House. This team will assist in selecting personnel and shaping policy.
“As President Trump’s broad coalition of supporters and endorsers expands across partisan lines, we are proud that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard have been added to the Trump/Vance Transition team,” Trump campaign senior adviser Brian Hughes said in a statement. “We look forward to having their powerful voices on the team [as] we work to restore America’s greatness.”
Kennedy recently ended his independent bid and endorsed Trump.
“I’ve been asked to go onto the transition team and to help pick the people who will be running the government,” Kennedy said in an interview with Tucker Carlson that was posted on X on Tuesday.
Gabbard, a former congresswoman who ran for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020 and left the party in 2022, publicly voiced her support for Trump. She appeared alongside him at a National Guard Association event in Detroit on Monday.
