Trump appoints his daughter Ivanka, son-in-law Jared Kushner and sons Eric and Don Jr to run his transition team alongside running mate Mike Pence

Donald Trump has organized his first staff-shakeup before he even takes office, ousting New Jersey governor Chris Christie as head of his presidential transition and appointing running mate Mike Pence (bottom right) to chair the effort. 'Together this outstanding group of advisors, led by Vice President-elect Mike Pence, will build on the initial work done under the leadership of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie to help prepare a transformative government ready to lead from day one,' Trump said in a statement announcing the change. Christie is to stay on as a vice chair. He is joined by

defeated rival Dr. Ben Carson, Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, who traveled with Trump and advises on national security, and Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions. Others who will guide the transition as part of a newly announced executive committee reveal Trump is creating somewhat of a dynasty. Eldest daughter Ivanka (center at Trump Tower today) her husband Jared Kushner (top right) and sons Eric Trump, top left, and Don Jr, bottom left will be on board the team.
