Trump selects Pam Bondi as new attorney general after Gaetz withdrawal

Donald Trump has named Pam Bondi as his new pick for attorney general after Matt Gaetz withdrew from consideration. Gaetz stepped down amid scrutiny over sexual misconduct allegations, which led to discomfort among Senate Republicans. Bondi, a former Florida attorney general, has a history of supporting Trump, including during his impeachment trial. If confirmed, she will oversee the Justice Department, which includes the FBI and other federal agencies. In other news, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that attacks on Ukraine could target countries supplying weapons to Ukraine. Additionally, a study found a previously unidentified chemical in U.S. tap water, raising concerns about its potential toxicity.
