US President-elect Donald Trump has filled two more top administration posts.
The incoming president has tapped Fox News analyst Kathleen "KT" McFarland to serve as deputy national security adviser, and campaign attorney Donald McGahn as White House counsel.
Trump confirmed the picks on Friday in a statement from his transition team.
He cited McFarland's "tremendous experience and innate talent," which he said would "complement the fantastic team we are assembling."
Trump had already tapped retired Army General Michael Flynn as his national security adviser.
McFarland has most recently served as a Fox News analyst. She served in various posts under former Presidents Nixon Ford and Reagan.
Trump said McGhan, who served as his campaign attorney, "has a brilliant legal mind, excellent character and a deep understanding of constitutional law."
Trump noted that McGhan would "play a critical role in our administration."
Neither position requires Senate confirmation.
Meanwhile, a top adviser to Trump has gone on Twitter to note opposition among some of his supporters to possible selection of former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney as secretary of state.
In a pair of posts on her verified Twitter account Trump spokeswoman Kellyanne Conway seemed to be stating an argument against the placement of Romney in Trump's Cabinet. Romney vehemently opposed Trump's nomination early in the campaign, assailing the billionaire as a "phony."
In one tweet, Conway notes that she has been "receiving a deluge of social media & private concerns re: Romney Some Trump loyalists warn against Romney as sec of state."
After Thanksgiving Day, Trump and his transition team are expected to turn their attention back to building his administration. Two possible appointments loom: retired neurosurgeon and former presidential candidate Ben Carson as secretary of housing and urban development and billionaire investor Wilbur Ross Jr. as commerce secretary.
