Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. thanked the president for “your vision and leadership, for giving me the 100 busiest days of my life.” Rubio said the 47 wrongfully detained Americans were returned home due to Trump’s “leadership and the diplomacy that was exercised.” However, the list of Americans was not immediately made public, and it was not clear which were being included in the tally. “I just want to say thank you, as a veteran of our military, for assembling what is the greatest national security team that I have ever seen in my 27 years associated with the United States Army,” said Lee Zeldin, the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, who has served in the military for more than two decades. Not surprisingly, the lovefest in the Cabinet Room glossed over the turmoil that has been roiling the early days of Trump’s return to the White House: the nosediving stock market and a contracting economy, revelations that his senior officials were careless, at best, with sensitive military information.“Would it be possible to have a cabinet meeting without the Kim Jong il-style tributes?” conservative commentator Ann Coulter wrote on the social media site X, referring to the North Korean dictator. Indeed, the praise wasn’t devoted just to the commander-in-chief. As an effusive Burgum spoke, he noted the “amazing group of people around the table” and added a quick aside to Trump: “You probably assembled the greatest Cabinet ever.”Kim covers the White House for The Associated Press.
