It was a busy day for the Trump Transition team as ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson officially got the nod as nominee for Secretary of State. Reportedly, former Texas Governor Rick Perry has been asked to be Secretary of Energy. Tillerson’s nomination is putting some strains on GOP unity as several lawmakers are raising questions about Tillerson’s connections to Russian president Vladimir Putin.
