PRESIDENT Donald Trump's cabinet will meet for the first time today and even his new best pal Elon Musk will have a seat at the table.
The president's top team consists of former senators like Marco Rubio but also figures from the world of business and television.
Senators have worked at breakneck speed to confirm Trump’s cabinet picks – with only a handful of votes remaining.
Eighteen cabinet picks have been confirmed by the Senate and they will gather at the White House for their first meeting.
The meeting will get underway at 11am, according to the president's schedule.
Tesla mogul Elon Musk, who spearheads Trump's Department of Government Efficiency, will also attend the meeting - even though he's not officially part of the cabinet.
In a Truth Social post, Trump claimed all cabinet members are "happy" with Elon.
Trump's chief of staff, Susie Wiles, is also part of the cabinet despite not needing a confirmation vote in the Senate.
Wiles, known as the ice maiden, has been hailed for her ruthlessness and is credited for running Trump's successful election campaign.
Trump's cabinet doesn’t just feature politicians who have made a career on Capitol Hill.
