In brief
President-elect Donald Trump is busy building his cabinet ahead of his inauguration. His selections include Mike Waltz, a hawkish Florida congressman, as national security adviser, and Marco Rubio, who has transitioned from critic to potential secretary of state. In a notable move, Trump has named former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee as the U.S. ambassador to Israel, despite Huckabee's lack of diplomatic experience during a turbulent time in the Middle East. The recent appointments come as the Manhattan criminal case against Trump faces delays, and corporate America braces for potential tax cuts under his administration. However, warnings about the implications of Trump’s policies loom over international relations. Both the E.U. and Britain are preparing for economic challenges, spotlighting the divided opinions on how Trump's leadership will affect global collaborations and domestic concerns, especially regarding women's issues.
