Following the recent dismissal of Attorney General Pam Bondi, two members of former President Donald Trump’s Cabinet are reportedly facing uncertain futures.

According to two insiders from the White House, Trump is contemplating changes in leadership for Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, as reported by The Washington Post.

Chavez-DeRemer, a former Republican congresswoman from Oregon, is embroiled in allegations of an inappropriate relationship with her bodyguard, Brian Sloan. Reports suggest they may have traveled to Las Vegas together.

Her personal life also faces scrutiny as her spouse, Shawn DeRemer, has been barred from entering the Labor Department premises following allegations of inappropriate conduct towards two staff members.

Chavez-DeRemer has refuted claims of an affair with Sloan, who stepped down from his role a fortnight ago.

Further accusations against her include consuming alcohol in her office, taking her team to a strip club, and allegedly using government funds for personal trips to Oregon.

DeRemer has denied all allegations of impropriety and said she is cooperating with the Inspector General’s investigation.

Lutnick is not at the center of any major scandal, but numerous White House aides are frustrated with his boisterous communication style and tendency to make loose, off-the-cuff remarks that at times contradict the administration’s messaging, according to the Post.

The clearest example of Lutnick not sticking to the script was when he said in April 2025 that Trump’s global tariff policies were ‘not a negotiation’.

Hours after Lutnick’s comments, Trump said the exact opposite: ‘The tariffs give us great power to negotiate. They always have.’

As Trump’s second term has progressed, he has used tariffs – and at times the mere threat of them – to extract trade concessions from other nations in exchange for carveouts.

Lutnick has also repeatedly suggested that the tariffs will being many jobs that were outsourced to other nations back to the United States quickly, despite experts consistently saying that process typically unfolds over many years.

The 64-year-old former Wall Street executive was also exposed for having closer ties to Jeffrey Epstein than he previously let on.

In late January, when the Department of Justice released millions of pages of documents from its investigative files on Epstein, it was revealed that Lutnick continued communication with the disgraced financier well after his 2008 conviction.

Lutnick was also forced to admit in front of Congress that he and his family had lunch with Epstein on his private Caribbean island, one of the main locations he sex trafficked underage girls.

Trump has not made any final personnel decisions, according to reporting from the Post and Politico.

The White House has said Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is safe in her role for now

Kristi Noem, who served as the Homeland Security secretary for a little over a year, was the first major firing in Trump’s second term

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was rumored to be on her way out as well, but Trump has publicly stood by her.

Gabbard has a history of criticizing ‘regime-change wars’ and ran for president as a Democrat in 2020 largely on a platform of non-interventionism.

She continues to brief Trump on intelligence, even as earlier this week he said Gabbard is ‘a little bit different in her thought process than me’ on the war in Iran.

A White House official told the Post that Gabbard is ‘safe’ in her role for the time being.

White House spokesperson David Ingle described Gabbard, Lutnick and Chavez-DeRemer as ‘patriots’ in a statement to the Daily Mail.

‘DNI Gabbard, Secretary Lutnick, and Secretary Chavez-DeRemer are tirelessly implementing the President’s agenda and achieving tremendous results for the American people. They continue to have the president’s full confidence,’ Ingle said. 

So far, Trump has been reluctant to make any major firings, in an effort to avoid his second term being labeled as chaotic as the first, which had one of the highest turnover rates in modern presidential history.

Among the major figures to lose their jobs in the first term were James Comey (FBI Director), Rex Tillerson (Secretary of State), Jeff Sessions (Attorney General) and John Bolton (National Security Advisor).

Anthony Scaramucci, who has gone on to become a harsh Trump critic, served as White House Communications Director for just 10 days in July 2017 before getting axed.

Kristi Noem, who served as the Homeland Security secretary for a little over a year, was the first major firing in Trump’s second term.
