Donald Trump has made intriguing nominations for his next administration, with many connected to a conservative plan called Project 2025. One notable nomination is Scott Turner, a former NFL player and White House official, who has been chosen to lead the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Turner's selection as the highest-ranking Black nominee in Trump's team raises questions about his ability to handle housing reform while adhering to Trump's conservative goals. Trump's financial team is shaping up to be pro-crypto and anti-Big Tech, with a crypto-friendly nominee for SEC Chair. This push for a crypto-positive approach could result in clearer rules for digital assets. Additionally, Trump's FCC pick is expected to take a tough stance on Big Tech, potentially reviving talks of a TikTok ban. These nominations are tied to Project 2025, a plan to reshape the government by the conservative Heritage Foundation. Critics worry the plan leans too far to the right, particularly regarding immigration and Big Tech regulation. The stage is set for major changes in finance, housing, and national security, but controversy surrounding Project 2025 is likely to spark debates.
