Trump nominates Kennedy for health department amid criticism over vaccine views

Donald Trump has nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Health and Human Services department, despite criticism over his vaccine views. This nomination requires Senate confirmation, where some senators doubt support for Trump’s choices. Trump also nominated two members of his legal team, Todd Blanche and Dean John Sauer, for deputy attorney general and solicitor general. Jay Clayton, former SEC chair, is nominated for US attorney for the southern district of New York. Concerns continue over Trump's attorney general nominee, Matt Gaetz, amid calls for an investigation into sexual misconduct allegations. Some Republican senators believe Gaetz may not be confirmed, raising questions about the extremity of Trump's 2024 picks compared to 2016.
