Billionaire John Paulson said Tuesday he does not plan to formally join the administration as the secretary of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, though he said he intends to remain actively involved with Trump's economic team.

"Although various media outlets have mentioned me as a candidate for Secretary of the Treasury, my complex financial obligations would prevent me from holding an official position in President Trump’s administration at this time," Paulson said in a statement.

"However, I intend to remain actively involved with the President’s economic team and helping in the implementation of President Trump’s outstanding policy proposals," he added.

House Speaker Mike Johnson confirmed that Trump is expected to visit the U.S. Capitol to celebrate a potential Republicans "trifecta" on Wednesday morning before he sits down in the Oval Office with President Joe Biden later in the day.

"Well, I'll say I didn't intend to break this as news this morning," Johnson quipped as he held a press conference with House Republican leadership.

"He wanted to come and visit with House Republicans, so we're working out the details of him gathering with us potentially tomorrow morning, before he goes to the White House," Johnson said. "And that would be a great meeting and a moment for all of us, there's a lot of excitement, a lot of energy here. We're really grateful for President Trump leaving it all on the field to get reelected."

Returning to Washington on Tuesday, Speaker Mike Johnson and other top House Republicans took a victory lap on last week's election results.

While ABC News has not yet projected House control, Republicans are three seats away from clinching the 218 needed for a majority.

Johnson said they are monitoring outstanding races closely but are confident they will have a "unified" government come January.

"This leadership will hit the ground running to deliver President Trump's agenda in the 119th Congress, and we will work closely with him and his administration to turn this country around and unleash, as he says, a new golden age in America," Johnson said at a press conference on the Capitol steps.

President-elect Donald Trump’s newly picked “border czar” Tom Homan addressed his forthcoming deportation plan and state leaders who have objected to sweeping immigration policies.

During an appearance on Fox News on Monday, Homan issued a warning to so-called “sanctuary” states and cities to “get the hell out of the way” of the Trump administration's mass deportation plans.

“I saw today numerous governors from sanctuary states saying they're going to step in the way. They better get the hell out of the way. Either you help us or get the hell out of the way, because ICE is going to do their job,” he warned, referring to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, where he formerly served as director.

"I'll double the workforce in that sanctuary city. We're going to do our job despite the politics. We're doing it. So get used to it, because we're coming,” Homan said.

When asked if he plans to deport American citizens, Homan said, “President Trump has made it clear we will prioritize public safety threats and national security threats first, and that's how the focus would be.”
