He stepped down from his congressional role on January 1, 2022, to take the helm of Trump Media & Technology Group, the parent company of TRUTH Social.

Nunes will continue to lead TRUTH Social while serving as Chairman of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board.

The board, established in 1956, provides independent analysis and assessments to the president on the effectiveness of the U.S. intelligence community and the ability of intelligence agencies to meet national security needs.

In addition to naming Nunes, Trump announced other key appointments, including Bill White as U.S. ambassador to Belgium and Troy Edgar as Deputy Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

White, a longtime Trump supporter and donor, is currently CEO of Constellations Group and was previously the president of the Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum.

He previously served as Trump’s chief financial officer at DHS and as the associate deputy undersecretary of management for homeland security.

The President’s Intelligence Advisory Board plays a critical role in providing independent oversight and recommendations on the operations of the U.S. intelligence community.

Nunes’ appointment is expected to draw on his tenure in Congress and his work on high-profile investigations, including those into the origins of the Russia probe.

The announcements reflect Trump’s focus on appointing trusted allies and individuals with experience in leadership and national security to key positions as he prepares for his administration.

These appointments mark the first wave of personnel decisions expected in the weeks leading up to Trump’s inauguration.
