This guy would be an acceptable option. Or for Sec Def if Hegseth flames out.

Congress has a job to do, too. Actually, it’s got far too many jobs to do. It must ruthlessly prioritize and then tell us what its priorities are. What is the most important thing that Congress must do? In my opinion, it would be getting the economy on track, which means passing the reconciliation bill. Second, at least for the Senate, is to get Donald Trump’s nominations through. Then there are the investigations of misconduct by the Biden administration. These are all important, but we need to recognize that even if it works more than three days a week, Congress has only limited bandwidth. That’s why they must prioritize. We’re not going to be able to do everything we want to do. That’s impossible, but here’s the thing – the voters will understand that. They might disagree over which is the main priority, but they will respect the fact that the GOP is setting priorities. The Republicans must set them in public. That means John Thune and Mike Johnson need to get out there and explain the priorities so no one is surprised. When you fail to keep your people informed, they worry and start wondering what the hell is happening. If you tell them what’s going on, even if they don’t precisely agree with it, they at least accept it because you’re being transparent. Be transparent. Get out there and set the priorities.
Sadly, we’re just not going to have time to do all the investigations of all the myriad outrages perpetuated by the Biden administration. That’s too bad, but again, we must prioritize. When Congress does choose to investigate, it must do so in a smart way. Witnesses must have a credible threat of a perjury conviction hanging over them to get them to tell the truth. We’ve seen countless Democrat-affiliated hacks get up there and flat-out lie to congressional committees. Why? Because they know that they can get away with it since a Washington, DC, jury will never convict them. That is why the big-name hearings must take place on the road, out with the American people, preferably in venues like the Northern District of Texas, where a conservative jury pool is likely to convict a Democrat of lying to Congress. You cannot hold these hearings in Washington, DC. Sure, the hearing rooms are very impressive, being big, comfortable, and stained by the love of perverted interns, but we won’t get anywhere unless witnesses are afraid of going to jail for lying.

The more serious Trump is about following through on his promises, the more vicious will be the swamp's response.
