He’s been the president-elect for just under a week, and Donald Trump is wasting no time stocking his cabinet and making other key personnel decisions. We’ve already seen several picks on Tuesday, including Scott Bessent as Treasury Secretary, a rumored South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem to head the Department of Homeland Security, and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee was selected as Ambassador to Israel, with more to come.

Now, Trump has named William “Bill” McGinley as his White House Counsel. In his first term, that role was filled by Don McGahn, Emmet Flood (Acting), and Pat Cipollone. 

The Trump-Vance Transition Team issued the following statement regarding McGinley:

I am pleased to announce that William Joseph McGinley will serve as my White House Counsel. Bill is a smart and tenacious lawyer who will help me advance our America First agenda while fighting for election integrity and against the weaponization of law enforcement. He served in my first term as White House Cabinet Secretary and played a major role in our election victory as the RNC’s Outside Counsel for Election Integrity. Bill has served as General Counsel at the National Republican Senatorial Committee, has been a partner at two international law firms, and will work with me as we Make America Great Again!

McGinley participated in an “election integrity call” hosted by the RNC just ahead of the election.

Here were McGinley’s thoughts on the call about the Bucks County win regarding extending the time for absentee voting due to the improper closing of the election offices during the prescribed period:





McGinley stated that voters were relying on what Bucks County officials told them regarding the ability to vote, but the officials did not keep that commitment to voters. Other counties were keeping their offices open the whole time. When administrators make a commitment, they need to keep that commitment. He noted that the ruling found that Bucks County violated Pennsylvania election law. He added that these voters deserved the same treatment as high-ranking officials who bragged about being able to vote early — they should be entitled to the same process, and it should be a secure and transparent process. McGinley contended that when voters sacrificed during the work week to cast their ballot, officials should keep their commitment. He added that they will continue to keep an eye on the situation through election day.
