Good Friday morning. I'm Anna Palmer and welcome to your Politico Playbook Flash Briefing, sponsored by the U.S. Chamber.

And I'm Jake Sherman. Donald Trump becomes president one week from today. He's mostly been holed up in Trump Tower in New York for the past two months, but he is planning a Washington charm offensive.

We hear the next president plans to socialize with members of Congress frequently.

Expect the outreach to start soon after he arrives at the White House.

He's thinking about barbecues and other social gatherings at 1600 Pennsylvania.

Sounds like a different approach than President Barack Obama.

That's for sure.

We've also got the scoop on a big staff announcement.

Utah Senator Orrin Hatch's chief of staff, Rob Porter, is expected to be named White House

Staff Secretary.

The powerful position determines which papers land on the president's desk.

Trump disagreeing with people in this party is nothing new, but the New York Times has a great

story this morning about how his cabinet nominees are often at odds

with the president-elect. Despite the disagreements, we hear Trump World is actually happy with how

the hearings are going. And in job news, Brian Callanan, staff director and general counsel of the

Senate's permanent subcommittee on investigations is leaving to become a partner at Cooper and Kirk,

a boutique litigation firm.

Fun fact, Senators Ted Cruz and Tom Cotton are alumni.
