Trump Picks Kelly for Homeland Security

President-elect Donald Trump “has settled on Gen. John F. Kelly, a retired four-star Marine general whose son was killed in combat in Afghanistan, as his choice for secretary of homeland security, placing defense of American territory from terrorism in the hands of a seasoned commander with personal exposure to the costs of war,” the New York Times reports.

“The president-elect plans to roll out the appointment next week, along with his remaining national security positions, including secretary of state.”
