Good Thursday morning, I'm Jake Sherman and welcome to your Politico Playbook Flash Briefing,

sponsored by the National Retail Federation.

And I'm Anna Palmer.

Playbook is filled with scoops this morning.

One of the shocks of the day is that Capitol Hill is basically in the dark about executive actions that Donald Trump will take on day one.

That's very surprising, considering top Hill aides have been working for years on unwinding Obama's policies. Well, how about that? We hear that Hope Hicks is going to get one of the offices close to the Oval Office. Proximity to power is important, and there's no doubt hope will have it. We hear that Makhan del Rahim, a lawyer in D.C., is going to work either in a top job at the

White House or at number two at the Justice Department.

Look south this weekend because Mar-a-Lago is hosting a party in honor of Donald Trump.

The president-elect is inviting members of his South Florida haunt to celebrate in his honor

Friday from 7 to 10 p.m. No word if Trump will attend or if he'll be in D.C.

Jack Liu is going to New York to work as a visiting professor at Columbia. The outgoing Treasury

Secretary is also giving paid speeches. Williams and Connolly's Bob Barnett and Michael O'Connor

cut the deal. Subscribe to Playbook at Politico.com slash playbook.
