TRUMP ANNOUNCES PAM BONDI AS HIS CHOICE TO REPLACE MATT GAETZ AS ATTORNEY
GENERAL

Trump has announced his choice to replace Matt Gaetz as attorney general: the
former Florida attorney general and one of Trump’s defence lawyers.

In a statement on Truth Social, he said:

> I am proud to announce former Attorney General of the Great State of Florida,
> Pam Bondi, as our next Attorney General of the United States. Pam was a
> prosecutor for nearly 20 years, where she was very tough on Violent Criminals,
> and made the streets safe for Florida Families. Then, as Florida’s first
> female Attorney General, she worked to stop the trafficking of deadly drugs,
> and reduce the tragedy of Fentanyl Overdose Deaths, which have destroyed many
> families across our Country. She did such an incredible job, that I asked her
> to serve on our Opioid and Drug Abuse Commission during my first Term — We
> saved many lives!
> 
> For too long, the partisan Department of Justice has been weaponized against
> me and other Republicans - Not anymore. Pam will refocus the DOJ to its
> intended purpose of fighting Crime, and Making America Safe Again. I have
> known Pam for many years — She is smart and tough, and is an AMERICA FIRST
> Fighter, who will do a terrific job as Attorney General!

SUMMARY

Here are the key developments from the last few hours:

 * Donald Trump announced that he would nominate for attorney general Pam Bondi,
   the former Florida state attorney general, hours after the former
   representative Matt Gaetz withdrew in the face of opposition from Senate
   Republicans who had balked over a series of sexual misconduct allegations.

 * Gaetz, the former Florida representative, withdrew from consideration as
   attorney general amid allegations including sexual misconduct with a
   17-year-old girl, drug use and misappropriating campaign funds. His rapid
   fall came after likely opposition from Republican senators who had squirmed
   at the notion of approving his nomination, all as the House ethics committee
   mulled releasing its investigation into his alleged misconduct. Meanwhile,
   CNN reported that the woman who said she had sex with Gaetz when she was a
   minor had had a second sexual encounter with him, involving an adult woman.

 * Rainn, the US’s largest anti-sexual violence organization, wrote that Gaetz’s
   decision “was in response to survivors and advocates using their voices to
   demand accountability”. Other women’s rights and empowerment groups,
   including UltraViolet, acknowledged that it was right for Gaetz to withdraw,
   while also pointing out that Donald Trump’s cabinet nominees include several
   others accused of sexual abuse and misconduct.

 * A handful of Republican senators reacted to Gaetz’s withdrawal, issuing a
   variety of responses. The Senate minority leader, Mitch McConnell, called the
   decision “appropriate”, according to the Washington Post. Meanwhile, the
   senator Cynthia Lummis told CNN that it was good that Gaetz recognized he was
   a distraction, and that this will allow Trump to appoint someone “equally
   tenacious” to lead the justice department.

 * The scrutiny around Pete Hegseth, Trump’s nominee for defense secretary, grew
   as police unveiled an investigative report into the former Fox News host that
   further detailed the sexual assault allegations surrounding him. According to
   the report, Hegseth assaulted a woman after he took her phone, blocked the
   door to a hotel room and prevented her from leaving.

 * Meanwhile, the woman who publicly accused Robert F Kennedy Jr of sexual
   assault when she worked for him as a babysitter said she was motivated to do
   so when he released a campaign ad based on a famous advertisement for his
   uncle, President John F Kennedy. “I literally was just watching the Super
   Bowl and saw the ad and thought: ‘You’ve gotta be kidding me,’” Eliza Cooney
   told USA Today.

 * US President Joe Biden has responded to the ICC issuing arrest warrants for
   Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the country’s former defence
   minister, Yoav Gallant, calling it an “outrageous” decision. In a short
   statement, he said: “The ICC issuance of arrest warrants against Israeli
   leaders is outrageous. Let me be clear once again: whatever the ICC might
   imply, there is no equivalence – none – between Israel and Hamas. We will
   always stand with Israel against threats to its security.”

 * Democratic Senator Bob Casey of Pennsylvania called Dave McCormick to concede
   a closely fought race in Pennsylvania. The race was decided by less than a
   quarter of a point. In a post on X, he said: “During my time in office, I
   have been guided by an inscription on the Finance Building in Harrisburg:
   ‘All public service is a trust, given in faith and accepted in honor’.”

'OUTRAGEOUS': BIDEN RESPONDS TO ICC ARREST WARRANTS FOR ISRAELI LEADERS

US President Joe Biden has responded to the ICC issuing arrest warrants for
Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the country’s former defence
minister Yoav Gallant, calling it an “outrageous” decision.

In a short statement, he said:

Pam Bondi’s elevation to lead the justice department would also come as a result
of extraordinary serendipity, after Trump picked Gaetz almost on a whim after he
decided against more conventional lawyers.

The selection process for major positions has involved Trump pulling up each
candidate on a bank of screens at his Mar-a-Lago club and looking for various
qualities, including their perceived loyalty and how they might play on
television.

Trump did not like the initial list of names that included Mark Paoletta, the
former counsel at the White House office of management and budget; Missouri’s
attorney general, Andrew Bailey; and Robert Giuffra, co-chair of the New York
law firm Sullivan and Cromwell, and decided he preferred a pugilist like Gaetz.

But the Gaetz nomination sank after a series of meetings on Wednesday with
Republican senators. Later that evening, they broadly expressed to the Trump
team their continued opposition to the Gaetz nomination, the people said.

On Thursday morning, Trump called Gaetz and told him that it was clear he did
not have the votes in a rare moment of realpolitik for Trump. Gaetz agreed and
took himself out of the running, one of the people said.

Gaetz told associates after he announced he was withdrawing his nomination that
he faced the reality that at least three senators – Mitch McConnell, Susan
Collins and Lisa Murkowski – and senator-elect John Curtis would vote against
him and block his confirmation, the people said.

From his Mar-a-Lago club, Trump said in a statement: “I greatly appreciate the
recent efforts of Matt Gaetz in seeking approval to be attorney general. He was
doing very well but, at the same time, did not want to be a distraction for the
administration, for which he has much respect.”

The Federal Aviation Administration plans to convene a corrective action review
board in the coming weeks to consider safety concerns about engines on Boeing
737 Max airplanes after two bird-strike incidents on Southwest Airlines planes
in 2023.

The FAA said it is addressing an issue with the CFM Leap-1B engine and is
collaborating with Boeing, CFM and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency.

The Seattle Times, which reported the plan earlier, said the FAA could issue
instructions to pilots for changes during procedures during takeoff until Boeing
develops a permanent fix that could extend delays to certification of the Max 7
and Max 10 models.

After meeting with US senators on Capitol Hill, Matt Gaetz determined that his
nomination was “becoming a distraction to the critical work of the new Trump
administration”, he explained on X.

“There’s a sense of relief about it, of course. I think he did a pretty noble
thing, frankly, an honorable thing by getting out himself,” said Kevin Cramer,
the Republican senator from North Dakota.

A lawyer who represents two women who say they were paid by Gaetz for sex also
said his clients are “relieved to have this chapter behind them”.

Reuters: McKinsey is in the final stages of negotiating a deferred prosecution
agreement to resolve a US criminal investigation into the consulting firm’s work
helping opioid manufacturers boost sales that allegedly contributed to a deadly
addiction epidemic, people familiar with the matter said.

McKinsey is in talks to pay more than $600m to resolve the longstanding US
Department of Justice investigation, which also encompasses findings of civil
violations, the people said.

The settlement, expected to be unveiled before the end of the year, would result
in prosecutors seeking to dismiss criminal charges against McKinsey after a
period of time as long as the company abides by the agreement’s terms.

ANALYSIS: TESLA’S PATH IN CHINA CLEARS AS MUSK COURTS BOTH TRUMP AND XI


Amy Hawkins

If it pays to have friends in high places, few among us can claim to be better
placed than Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and one of the only people to
have cosy relationships with both Donald Trump and Xi Jinping. His commercial
and political connections to both may prove pivotal as the feud between the US
and China plays out over the next four years, particularly as Trump promises
steep tariffs.

Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, once supported Joe Biden. But his
relationship with the current US president soured over the past four years as,
among other perceived insults, Musk felt that the White House gave Tesla, his
car and green energy company, “the cold shoulder”. Trump, meanwhile, has
described Tesla as “incredible” even while pledging to do away with subsidies
for electric vehicles. This year, Musk formally endorsed Trump as the
presidential candidate, campaigned for him online and off and donated more than
$100m to his re-election effort.

Musk’s loyalty has been rewarded with his appointment as the leader of a newly
created Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), which, despite its name,
will be an advisory body, not a government agency. Perhaps more important for
the global economy than his official role will be the influence he has on the
dynamic between the leaders of the world’s two superpowers. With a trade war
that was started by Trump and expanded by Biden, and mounting geopolitical
tensions, the US-China relationship has been tumbling downhill for years, with
negative global consequences, not least for consumers in the US and China, who
have seen prices rise as a result.

Donald Trump announced that he would nominate for attorney general Pam Bondi,
the former Florida state attorney general, hours after the former representative
Matt Gaetz withdrew in the face of opposition from Senate Republicans who had
balked over a series of sexual-misconduct allegations.

The move to name Bondi reflected Trump’s determination to install a loyalist as
the nation’s top law enforcement official and marked another instance of Trump
putting his personal lawyers in the justice department.

Trump settled on Bondi soon after Gaetz, his first pick, withdrew from the
running earlier on Thursday. Trump was told by advisers that she was a good
alternative because she has allies across the Republican party as well as inside
Trump’s world, according to people familiar with the matter.

“I am proud to announce former attorney general of the Great State of Florida,
Pam Bondi, as our next attorney general of the United States. Pam was a
prosecutor for nearly 20 years, where she was very tough on Violent Criminals,”
Trump said in a Truth Social post.

“Pam will refocus the DOJ to its intended purpose of fighting Crime, and Making
America Safe Again. I have known Pam for many years – She is smart and tough,
and is an AMERICA FIRST Fighter, who will do a terrific job as attorney
general!”

Bondi has been inside Trump’s orbit for some time, and is widely seen to have
demonstrated her loyalty to Trump during his first term, when she helped with
his impeachment defense, and more recently when she repeatedly attended Trump’s
criminal trial in New York.

BONDI WOULD BE THIRD FEMALE US ATTORNEY GENERAL IF CONFIRMED

If confirmed, Pam Bondi would be the third woman to serve as attorney general,
after Janet Reno, who served in the role from 1993-2001, and Loretta Lynch, who
served in the role from 2015-2017.
