Trump Reveals Crypto, Big Tech and Immigration Plan!
Donald Trump is back in the spotlight with some interesting candidates for his next administration. Scott Turner, a former NFL player who is a state official, has been selected to lead the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). But that's not all. Many of Trump's choices appear to be related to a conservative plan called Project 2025, which could shake things up significantly.
Scott Turner jump to the lead
Scott Turner's appointment as HUD secretary has people talking. Known for his NFL career and role on the White House Council on Opportunity and Revitalization, Turner's background is not the usual path to this position. Trump clearly saw something in his first term in office, praising his efforts to uplift struggling communities.
As the top black candidate in Trump's new team, Turner's choice stands out. The big question, however, is whether he can withstand the challenges of housing reform while maintaining Trump's conservative goals.
Financial turmoil and crypto advocates
Trump's finance team is shaping up to be pro-crypto and anti-Big Tech. Scott Besant is in the running for Treasury Secretary, but it's the choice for SEC chairman that's making waves. Trump leans towards a crypto-friendly candidate, with names like this
Paul Atkins, experienced since his time as SEC Commissioner Brian Brooks, crypto innovation. Brad Bondi supporter, attorney with political and corporate connections.
This push for a crypto-positive approach could lead to clear regulations for digital assets, which the industry has been longing for. Meanwhile, Trump's FCC pick, Brendan Carr, is expected to take a strong stance on big tech.
2025 project power
Many of these candidates are tied to Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation's bold plan to reshape government. Russell Vought, who has been tapped once again as OMB director, is one of the project's chief architects. Contributors like Tom Homan (on immigration) and John Ratcliffe (on information) show how the plan is influencing Trump's polls.
But not everyone is on board. Critics worry that he leans to the right, particularly with his strong stance on immigration and Big Tech regulation.
What is expected?
Trump's election has set the stage for major changes, particularly in finance, housing and national security. But with the controversy surrounding the 2025 project, there are bound to be arguments. Will these bold moves bring progress or spark more political battles? The road ahead looks nothing but dim.
