"Champion for the Constitution": Trump nominates Gaetz for attorney general

Salon  

Donald Trump has nominated Florida congressman Matt Gaetz to head up his Department of Justice. “Matt will end Weaponized Government, protect our Borders, dismantle Criminal Organizations and restore Americans’ badly-shattered Faith and Confidence in the Justice Department.” Trump called Gaetz a "champion for the Constitution" and said that he would "root out the systemic corruption at DOJ." Gaetz led the effort to oust former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, and McCarthy said that Gaetz was motivated by the ongoing probe. In a post to X, Gaetz said that it would be "an honor to serve" as Trump's attorney general.
