Donald Trump announced the appointment of four new members to his Homeland Security Advisory Council. He said they would do an “incredible” job.
The new members are South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster, syndicated radio and Fox News host Mark Levin, retired New York City Police Department detective Bo Dietl, and Florida State Sen. Joseph Gruters.
Trump said on Truth Social Thursday night that the HSAC “consists of top experts in their fields, who are highly respected among their peers. It is an honor to be a member of HSAC, and I am confident that the new members, South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster and Mark Levin, will do a great job.”
HSAC will be led by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and “work hard to develop new Policies and Strategies that will help secure our Border, Deport Illegal Criminal Thugs, and stop the flow of Fentanyl and illegal drugs that kill our Citizens and MAKE AMERICA SECURE AGAIN. Congratulations to all!”
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced in early this year that the HSAC would be re-established. The panel, which will be restructured to include 35 members instead of the previous 40, will now have 35 members. The members will have a three-year term while providing Noem with strategic advice.
