President Donald Trump also indicated that other Cabinet members also attended, claiming that "we’ve got them all sort of here" after singling out Rubio and Bessent. However, he refrained from identifying others because "they're not names that are going to get huge applause from this very substantially Democrat audience." 

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth also kicked off the first-ever Christmas worship service at the Pentagon, featuring American evangelist Franklin Graham, and musicians Anne Wilson and Matthew West. 

Additionally, Hegseth’s wife, Jen, hosted a Christmas Tea Party for Gold Star families at the Pentagon. A Gold Star Family is the family of a service member who died during active-duty military service.

"We like to have a talent show," Hines said in the video. "Not everybody is as talented as they wish they were, but that doesn’t stop us from singing at the top of our lungs or doing some crazy dance. We always have a really good time together."

Lisa Collins, who is married to Secretary of Veterans Affairs Doug Collins, said their family enjoys decorating their Christmas tree with ornaments they’ve collected for nearly 40 years. 

"Our favorite holiday tradition is collecting Christmas ornaments, everywhere we’ve been in 37 years," Collins said in the video. We "have a special tree for those places, and they’re all dated as a remembrance of where we’ve been, and how far we’ve come."
