From Washington: President-elect Trump’s Cabinet Picks Court Congress
This week, President-elect Trump’s first pick for Attorney General, former Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-FL), announced he was withdrawing his name from consideration for the position. Following the news, the President-elect nominated former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi for the position instead. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram reports on how Capitol Hill is reacting to some of Trump’s cabinet selections and discusses who else we may see hold positions in the incoming administration.
After President Biden authorized Ukraine’s use of American made missiles into Russian territory earlier this week, some geopolitical analysts pondered whether this was to increase leverage for upcoming negotiations given President-elect Trump’s victory, or whether this would escalate tensions. Former United States Special Representative for Ukraine Negotiations and US NATO Ambassador Kurt Volker joins to break down this week’s developments in the Russia-Ukraine war. He also weighs in in on whether he believes President-elect Trump will be able to end the conflict shortly after he takes office in January as well as what President Putin and President Zelenskyy’s political futures look like.
