The Federalist: House Gaetz Probe Relies On Witnesses DOJ Found Not Credible
The Department of Justice has faced criticism for its handling of political matters, particularly regarding its investigations into former President Trump and Rep. Matt Gaetz. Allegations against Gaetz, stemming from discredited sources, have resurfaced as part of an effort to block his nomination as attorney general.
Despite the DOJ previously closing its investigation into Gaetz due to credibility issues with the accusers, the House Ethics Committee has chosen to pursue these claims. Critics argue this reflects a broader pattern of using unverified accusations to undermine political opponents.
Times Of Israel: Trump picks oil industry executive, climate change denier to lead Energy Department
President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Chris Wright, CEO of Liberty Energy, as his nominee for Secretary of Energy. Wright, a proponent of fossil fuels, is expected to align with Trump's energy policies and oppose global climate change initiatives. He has previously criticized climate activists and emphasized the importance of fossil fuel production.
Wright's nomination, along with other controversial picks for Trump's cabinet, marks a significant shift from the Biden administration's environmental focus. The Senate confirmation process may pose challenges due to the lack of political experience among some nominees.

Cambridgeshire police have opted not to prosecute a man who sent an image of the Star of David intertwined with a Nazi swastika to the Union of Jewish Students, deeming it not "grossly offensive." The incident was classified as a non-crime hate incident despite its offensive nature.
The decision has raised concerns about the enforcement of hate laws, particularly in light of rising anti-Semitic incidents. Critics argue that such imagery is deeply distressing and should be treated with greater seriousness, especially given the historical context and recent increases in hate crimes against Jews.
