Trump faces scrutiny over controversial cabinet picks as Senate confirmation looms

President-elect Donald Trump is facing increased scrutiny over his cabinet nominations, which include controversial figures with little relevant experience. Notable picks include Robert Kennedy Jr. for health secretary and Matt Gaetz for attorney general, who is under investigation. Trump aims to leverage his recent electoral victory to push through these nominations, seeking quick approval through "recess appointments." His choices reflect a commitment to dismantling existing government policies, particularly those related to diversity and environmental regulations. The Senate confirmation process is expected to be challenging, especially for his most divisive nominees. Trump has yet to announce key positions, including the treasury secretary, as speculation continues about potential candidates.
