A Guide to the Trump Administration November 2016

Introduction and Outline This document provides a first look at the people and players behind the most unlikely presidential campaign in American history. For each person mentioned here, we have included a bio, a photo, and representative institutions and organizations affiliated with that person, so that the reader may better understand the relationships that influence the people who in turn are influencing President Trump. Like the Trump business organization, the Trump campaign is an opaque web of interlocking relationships. While we have endeavored to make as a thorough a search as possible, with material available in the public record, any such record is bound to be incomplete.

Power Players Mike Pence Vice President-Elect; Governor of Indiana

Mike Pence was elected as the governor of Indiana in 2012. Prior to serving as governor, he was a six-term Indiana congressman. He has been a proponent of big tax cuts and last year drew national attention for signing the Religious Freedom Restoration Act that critics said allowed businesses to discriminate against same-sex couples. Activist groups and some businesses threatened to boycott the state, until Pence signed a “clarification” to the bill that made it clear the bill could not be used as an excuse for discrimination. Pence is a devout evangelical Christian who regularly speaks about his faith; describing himself as “a Christian, a conservative and a Republican, in that order.” He has taken a hardline stance against Planned Parenthood. A Pence amendment to defund Planned Parenthood passed the House in 2011. As governor, he signed a bill into law that banned abortions for reasons of genetic anomaly and created a new requirement to bury or cremate all fetal remains. Personally, Pence graduated from Hanover College in Hanover Indiana in 1981 and received a law degree from the Indiana University McKinney School of Law in 1986. He and his wife, Karen, have a son and two daughters.

Reince Priebus Chief of Staff

Reince Priebus has served as Chairman of the Republican National Committee since 2011. Previously, he served as RNC General Counsel from 2009 to 2011 and former Chairman of the Republican Party of Wisconsin from 2007 to 2009. As one of the top Republican strategists in Wisconsin, Priebus has a long professional relationship with Speaker Paul Ryan. Priebus inherited a $23 million debt at the Republican 6

National Committee, and began repairing relationships with major Republican donors. Following President Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election, Priebus convened the Growth and Opportunity Project to review the Republican Party’s poor showing with young voters, women, and Hispanics. Priebus increased outreach to these groups. During the 2016 campaign, President-elect Trump referred to Priebus as “Mr. Switzerland” for his studious neutrality during the Republican primary. Priebus engineered the drafting of a loyalty pledge signed by every Republican presidential candidate, a move which ultimately foreclosed a potential independent run by Trump and unified nearly every Republican candidate behind the ultimate nominee. After the Republican National Convention, Priebus told William J. Bennett for a profile in Politico Magazine that ““The job of being chairman entails racking up victories or killing bad ideas that no one will ever know about, herding cats, taking complaints, and keeping your head down and doing the fundamentals of the ground game and fundraising. But I love it and it’s what I’ve done for most of my life.” Priebus began his career as a lawyer with Michael Best & Friedrich LLP in Wisconsin, where he became partner in 2006. He is married to Sally Priebus and has two children. Affiliations: Speaker Paul Ryan, Wisconsin Tea Party, Michael Best & Friedrich LLP

Bannon as “a vindictive, nasty figure, infamous for verbally abusing supposed friends and threatening enemies.” Bannon previously worked at Goldman Sachs. He was involved in the financing and production of several films. He is also a former officer of the U.S. Navy. Bannon joined the Trump campaign in August 2016 as the chief executive officer.

Rudy Giuliani Former Mayor of NYC

Rudy Giuliani was the mayor of New York City between 1993 and 2001 and is credited with helping to clean up the city; the overall crime rate fell 57% and the murder rate fell 65%. He gained national attention in 2001 and for his response to 9/11. Prior to serving as mayor, Giuliani held various positions within the Department of Justice. In 1970, Giuliani joined the office of the U.S. Attorney. At age 29, he was named Chief of the Narcotics Unit and rose to serve as executive U.S. Attorney. In 1975, Giuliani was recruited to Washington, D.C., where he was named Associate Deputy Attorney General and chief of staff to the Deputy Attorney General. From 1977 to 1981, Giuliani returned to New York to practice law at Patterson, Belknap, Webb and Tyler. In 1981, Giuliani was named Associate Attorney General, the third highest position in the Department of Justice. As Associate Attorney General, Giuliani supervised all of the US Attorney Offices’ Federal law enforcement agencies, the Bureau of Corrections, the Drug Enforcement Agency, and the U.S. Marshals. In 1983, Giuliani was appointed U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, where he spearheaded the effort to jail drug dealers, fight organized crime, break the web of corruption in government, and prosecute white-collar criminals. Giuliani was first elected as mayor in 1993. He was the “rule of law” candidate and is credited with cleaning up the city. New York City’s law enforcement strategies became models for other cities around the world, particularly the CompStat 9

program, which won the 1996 Innovations in Government Award from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. CompStat allows police to statistically monitor criminal activity on specific street corners as well as citywide, holding precinct commanders accountable for criminal activity in their neighborhoods. As mayor, he also implemented a welfare-to-work initiative in the country, reduced taxes by $2.5 billion, created the Administration for Children’s Services in New York City, eliminated principal tenure and launched the New York City Charter School Improvement Fund.

Jeff Sessions Senator of Alabama

Sessions was elected to the United States Senate in 1997. Before becoming the Senator of Alabama, Sessions served as the Assistant United States Attorney for the Southern District of Alabama (1975-1977). He was then nominated by President Reagan in 1981 and confirmed by the Senate to serve as the United States Attorney for Alabama’s Southern District, a position he held for 12 years. His judicial nomination in 1986 was killed by the Senate Judiciary Committee due to his perceived “gross insensitivity” to racial issues. Sessions was then elected Alabama Attorney General in 1995. As a United States Senator, Sessions has focused his energies on maintaining a strong military, upholding the rule of law, limiting the role of government, and providing tax relief to stimulate economic growth and empowering Americans to keep more of their hardearned money. Dubbed a “budget hawk” by the Alabama press, Sen. Sessions was selected for the 112th and 113th Congresses to serve as the Ranking Member on the Senate Budget Committee to restrain the growth of federal spending and make permanent tax cuts that benefit American families. As a senior member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Sessions is a leading advocate of confirming federal judges who follow the law and do not legislate from the bench. As a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Sessions is a strong advocate for America’s military. Sessions also authored the Honoring Every Requirement of Exemplary Service (HEROES) Act, which was signed into law in May 2005. This legislation increased the payment received by the families of fallen combat soldiers from $12,000 to $100,000 and also 10

increased the maximum servicemen’s life insurance benefit from $250,000 to $400,000. Sessions played a leading role in ensuring that the Medicare Prescription Drug law included a rural health care component that reduced the disparity in Medicare payments. He also joined in efforts to make funding more equal in the Ryan White CARE Act. He also authored the Paul Coverdell National Forensic Sciences Improvement Law of 2000, which authorized badly needed funds for state and local crime labs to reduce the backlog of ballistics, blood, and DNA tests Affiliations: McWane Inc - top contributor to campaign, Northrop Grumman - top contributor to campaign, Center for Immigration Studies

Mike Huckabee Former Governor of Arkansas

Huckabee was the 44th Governor of Arkansas from 1996 until 2007, becoming one of the longest serving Governors in his state’s history, and was only the fourth Republican elected to any statewide office since Reconstruction, serving longer than the other three combined. Huckabee had been Lieutenant Governor for 3 years in July 1996 when his predecessor was forced to resign due to felony convictions. He was one of the youngest governors in the country at the time. Huckabee was elected to a full four-year term as governor in 1998, attracting the largest percentage of the vote ever received by a Republican gubernatorial nominee in Arkansas, and was re-elected to another four-year term in November 2002. As governor, he left a legacy of tax cuts, job creation, the reconstruction of his state’s road system, K-16 education reform, and a nationally heralded and duplicated health initiative that focused on the less expensive approach of prevention than the costly big-government approach of intervention. His administration fought long-standing corruption in the state’s political machine, resulting in numerous indictments and convictions of powerful legislators and other elected officials. When running for president this past year, Huckabee remained rather outspoken on foreign policy and social issues. He spoke out against cap and trade policy and same-sex marriage. He advocated for immigration reform, forceful military action against the Islamic State and a strong defense of Israel. 11

In his campaign for the Republican nomination for President in 2008, he finished second to John McCain. Governor Huckabee was the host of the number one rated weekend show HUCKABEE, on the Fox News Channel, from 2008 until 2015. He also hosted The Huckabee Report – which was heard three times daily across the nation on almost 600 radio stations from 2009-2015 – and is the New York Times bestselling author of 12 books. Currently, the Governor is a contributor on Fox News and one of the nation’s most sought after conservative speakers.

Ben Carson Former 2016 Republican Primary Candidate

Carson gained national attention in 2011 by criticizing President Obama’s health care policies at the National Prayer Breakfast.

As a pioneer in neurosurgery, Carson’s achievements include performing the first and only successful separation of Siamese twins joined at the back of the head, pioneering the first successful neurosurgical procedure on a fetus inside the womb, performing the first completely successful separation of type-2 vertical craniopagus twins, developing new methods to treat brain-stem tumors and reviving hemispherectomy techniques for controlling seizures. Carson became the youngest chief of pediatric neurosurgery in the country at age 33. He has received more than 60 honorary doctorate degrees, dozens of national merit citations, and written over 100 neurosurgical publications. In 2008, he was bestowed the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian award in the United States. As a candidate for the Republican nominee, Carson stood by his life story and Christian base to appeal to social conservatives. As a candidate, Carson advocated for school choice, immigration reform, and a proportional tax system. Affiliations: Conservative Political Action Conference, Robert F.

Founder of Crocus Inter and Crocus

Aras Agalarov is an Azeri businessman, developer, public figure and author of Russia: Reflections on the Way to the Market (1998). Born in Baku, he was educated at the Azerbaijan Polytechnical Institute. He moved with his family to Moscow in 1998, where he co-founded Crocus International along side his father-in-law, Iosif Yefgenevich, which specializes in trade fairs, where he still makes most of his money. As of 11/9/16, his net worth is an estimated $1.33 Billion. Trump made millions when he agreed to bring the Miss Universe pageant to Moscow in 2013, a deal financed in part by the development company of Agalarov. Agalarov is sometimes called the “Trump of Russia” because of his tendency to put his own name on his buildings. At the time, Trump mingled with the Russian business elite at a swanky after-party. “Almost all of the oligarchs were in the room,” Trump bragged on returning home. Trump received a portion of the $14 million paid by Agalarov and other investors to bring the Miss Universe pageant to Moscow. Agalarov said he and Trump signed an agreement to build a Trump Tower in the heart of Moscow — at least Trump’s fifth attempt at such a venture. Washington Post: “Since the 1980s, Trump and his family members have made numerous trips to Moscow in search of business opportunities, and they have relied on Russian investors to buy their properties around the world. ‘Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets,’ Trump’s son, Donald Jr., told a real estate conference in 2008, according to an account posted on the website of eTurboNews, a trade publication. ‘We see a lot of money pouring in from Russia.’” Affiliates: Vladimir Putin, Crocus Group, Miss Universe

Sater has been an advisor to many corporations, including The Trump Organization, Rixos Hotels and Resorts, Sembol Construction, Potok (formerly the Mirax Group), and TxOil. From Washington Post: “The Russian-born businessman had already done a stint in prison for stabbing a man in the face with the stem of a margarita glass, and he was now awaiting sentencing for his role in a Mafia-orchestrated stock fraud scheme — all the while serving as a government informant on the mob and mysterious matters of national security.” Sater proposed that his company, “would build Trump towers in U.S. cities and across the former Soviet bloc. Sater pitched it to Trump, who gave Sater’s company rights to explore projects in Moscow as well as in Florida and New York. “Anybody can come in and build a tower,” Sater told potential investors, according to testimony in a 2008 court case. “I can build a Trump Tower, because of my relationship with Trump.” Sater’s “Trump card,” as he called it, didn’t work everywhere.

In a 2004 auction, Trump snapped up the property from Gosman’s Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Estate for $41 million, according to property records. Four years later, Trump sold the mansion for $95 million.
