    November 25, 2024: Trump bucks transition tradition … again

    When a new presidential administration prepares to take office, it typically signs transparency and ethics agreements with the White House, the Justice Department and the General Services Administration to ensure access to important government information and otherwise facilitate a smooth transition. But this time, President-elect Donald Trump’s team has been reluctant to sign them. White House reporter Adam Cancryn walks Playbook co-author Eugene Daniels through the reasons for the Trump team’s hesitation and the implications. Plus, the president-elect dominates the conversation at the Halifax Security Forum, and what we know about Kamala Harris’ next moves.

    November 22, 2024: Gaetz is out. Who’s next?

    After a tumultuous eight days as Donald Trump’s nominee for attorney general, Matt Gaetz withdrew from consideration yesterday. While Senate Republicans cheered the move, the implications for Trump’s second administration are immense. Hours after the announcement, Trump nominated former Florida AG Pam Bondi for the role — a move cheered by Senate Republicans. But in the post-Gaetz landscape, other Trump nominees are likely to face increased scrutiny around their own imbroglios. What are the lessons of Gaetz’s fall, and where do things head from here? Playbook co-authors Eugene Daniels and Rachael Bade discuss.

    November 21, 2024: Can Pete Hegseth withstand the Senate’s spotlight?

    Matt Gaetz has dominated the spotlight in Washington since President-elect Donald Trump announced him as nominee for attorney general. But Gaetz is far from Trump’s only contentious pick. On Capitol Hill, concerns are mounting about Pete Hegseth, the Fox News personality Trump picked to run the Department of Defense. There are concerns about Hegseth’s experience — he served in the military, but has never run a complex and vast organization. There are concerns about his controversial views — including that women should not be able to serve in combat roles. And then there are concerns about alleged sexual misconduct stemming from an encounter he maintains was consensual but which the woman in question maintains was not. What should we expect as Washington’s gaze turns to Hegseth? Defense reporter Joe Gould joins Playbook co-author Rachael Bade to discuss.

    November 20, 2024: All eyes on the House Ethics Committee

    Today, the House Ethics Committee will meet to discuss is the findings of its investigation into Attorney General nominee Matt Gaetz. Because the committee has an equal number of Republican and Democratic members, only one Republican would need to vote with Democrats to release the report. So how will this play out? Congress reporter Daniella Diaz and Playbook co-author Eugene Daniels walk through the possibilities. Plus, with the additions of Mehmet Oz to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and Linda McMahon to be Education secretary, President-elect Donald Trump reinforces his affinity for reality tv politicians. That, and the rest of the news you need to know today. Correction: An earlier version of this episode stated that DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and FBI Director Christopher Wray would testify before the Homeland Security Committee at 10 a.m.

    November 18, 2024: Sex, drugs and cabinet appointments

    Two of President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet appointments are facing accusations of sexual misconduct, and the ensuing mess is just getting started. The House Ethics Committee report on Rep. Matt Gaetz, Trump’s nominee for attorney general, who has been under investigation for allegations of having sex with a minor and illicit drug use at sex parties, may be released yet. This, despite the Florida representative’s resignation from Congress, and even some Republicans are calling for the release of that report. But Gaetz isn’t alone. Over the weekend, the Washington Post reported that Pete Hegseth, Trump’s pick for defense secretary, paid a woman who accused him of sexual assault as part of a nondisclosure agreement. He denies the assault. Playbook co-author Rachael Bade unpacks this situation. Plus, is Howard Lutnick too thirsty to be Treasury secretary? All that, plus the rest of the news you need to know today.
