In a bold move signaling his priorities for his second term, President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Chad Chronister, the sheriff of Hillsborough County, Florida, to lead the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). The announcement underscores Trump’s emphasis on combating illegal drugs and securing the southern border, setting the stage for potentially contentious confirmation hearings in January.
Chronister’s nomination is part of a broader strategy to elevate loyal allies into critical roles within the Trump administration. He joins a growing roster of Floridians, including Senator Marco Rubio, tapped for Secretary of State, and former Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is set to become the next U.S. Attorney General following the withdrawal of Rep. Matt Gaetz. These appointments reflect Trump’s deep ties to Florida, a state that played a pivotal role in his electoral success.
