After Gaetz, Trump Cabinet choices still face scrutiny

Some of President-elect Trump’s Cabinet choices still face scrutiny following the withdrawal of Matt Gaetz to be attorney general. The tapping of former congressman Gaetz was seen as the most problematic among Trump’s personnel announcements. But he was not the only controversial Cabinet selection. Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence nominee Tulsi Gabbard, and HHS nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr each face questions about their experience, past actions and statements, and policy positions as they seek Senate confirmation.
