the po for a snap election, the vote will determine if the country is new left as president, get small power to help support in the wake of a financial mail. the guy that says, welcome to the program. republicans have won the enough seats to control the united states house of representatives. the results gives the republicans and president elect donald trump, a governing tri effect with control of the senate, the house, and the white house. but even with that majority, trump may still not get everything he wants, including his top picks for cabinet jobs. donald trump returned to washington this week, try on, sent, relishing his election when and what he called a powerful mandate. well thank you very much, is
12:02 pm
a very nice gathering is still in nice to in so it's nice to a lot of good friends. it is those good friends and now being nominated for top government positions among them. attorney general take met gates, a loyal trump follow a who has often acted as his attack dog on capitol hill. gates has been the subject of a federal 6 transfer king investigation with the one that ended without criminal charges . summers and fox news channel. hosp hicks is a military veteran whom trump once as defend secret tree. the civilian nomination has reportedly shocked many at the pentagon with concerns he could politicize the defense department, touching the top generals. but from may face challenges securing them in their roles. the picks must be consumed by the senate, while republicans have
12:03 pm
a 53 seat majority. the nominations approving controversial, even within their own ranks. republicans presenting a largely united front with the senate house and white house now under the control . yeah, trump met with president joe biden on wednesday, the polite, but we could exchange signaling a vastly different era for us leadership with democrats now facing an uphill battle to combat trumps agenda. with me on his duty is now a little phone. it is familiars election, a team problem we just sold by and then a trump, the meeting for mr. trump. this transition will be easy or will it not with control of the senate and the house of reps. so it's good news for the republicans because it allows the republicans to push through at sweeping changes to the economy,
12:04 pm
a bar mental protections. and of course, that much talked about migration policy. and we're looking at a republican party that is very different to the one that we saw back in 2016. the 1st time trump came into office, we're seeing it more unity there. and be issues may lie in the center because of just have the structure works in order to get through santa bills. you need a 350 majority. so the, basically you need that to avoid this thing called the filibuster, which basically is a way of stalling legislation. by keeping at the debate, going endlessly. so what will happen is that republicans in the senate will now have to go across the aisle and get some support from democrats if they want to avoid this issue. that means that legislation may need to be watered down in order to get it through and meaning that there's going to have to be conversations with democrats. and also the senate tends to work
12:05 pm
a little bit more independently in to maybe the president and whoever is in office . so he can do. he just said that he does not have cop launch. right? no, no, he doesn't sign. of course, you know, there's another element which is the us traditional system. of course. once again, did us additional system isn't a very different place to the where it was in 2016 because back in 2016, it wasn't, as we'll say, conservative frenzy as it is. now if we go from the very top where you have the supreme court at the supreme court is definitely more conservative leaning, but it's not just in the top top courts. it's also lower diamond as well. we're seeing that it's definitely more conservative for envy. so in the event that, for example, donald trump decides to push through executive orders. the difference now is that the chances are that that will remain at if there are any legal challenges at. the courts tend to be a bit more conservative leaning,
12:06 pm
meaning that there will be fewer legal challenges, or at least it'll be easier for donald trump to maintain those executive orders. now the last few days, a trumpet team has been taking shape. let's start with one of them and there's many gets he's going to be the next attorney general, the country's top law enforcement official. that's right. there's been plenty of conversation and we're going to be having a lot of the conversations over the next weeks and months, particularly. my case is a potentially going to be the attorney general. he is a fears, trump, loyalist, and he's be known as a bit of a people at in washington has always been on donald trump side, or at least in the past few years. he's now a former congressman from florida. he's a very divisive figure. even among republicans mans, and he has limited experience even working as a lawyer, much less than previous attorneys general in the united states. so that's also one thing that may not go in his favor. he's also spent most of his,
12:07 pm
of the past few years working as a politician, as i mentioned and, and he would interestingly and shockingly, for many be potentially meeting the branch of government that had actually been investigating him at for allegations of sex profiting minors. now he's always denied the was allegations, and those charges in that investigation weren't charges, but those investigations were dropped back in 2023. but it's also important to mention as well. but the house ethics committee had been investigating allegations that gates was part of a sex trafficking scheme as well. that's now and that of course, because he stepped down as a member of the house of representatives and uh, any other nominations that have to come to the one that you on site as well as tools he gathered. she has been nominated as the director of national intelligence . she is a former democrat, very fiercely loyal as well to donald trump. once again, likes experience and intelligence matters. she's known because she is opposed to us
12:08 pm
interventions in both ukraine and syria. and since even suggested that the us provoked russia into aggressive policies ever been plenty of people who said that she's very too friendly at to russia. and so that's also caused a lot of concern. i'm right now what's, what's the comments read then in these nominations? here's loyalty to donald, that's it is, and that's essentially what we've been seeing. fierce loyalty to donald trump. it's not a surprise. and donald trump in many ways is shocking and many aspects, but we're already prepared. we know he's unpredictable. davosto is predictable. india unpredictable. d as in d 5 a. thank you very much, scott. now let's have a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. iran says it will continue to work with these un nuclear agency, but not on the fresh air. even offs come as the i a, a chief profile grossey visits to run european pause a pushing for

12:19 pm
majority of the people who become really very important issues. so enough to the desktop settling. now the president told me the most pressing issues, the president hopes to be able to advance his anti corruption agenda if he's elected after these elections, will that help the country out of that economic struggle? i think it wouldn't be more about. is marla tardy also? and as we all understand, it's one thing to talk about bringing stolen assets back. it really require working with the client very complex because systems not and not entry long come, but creating new laws entry longer and working with other countries. so it is understood that the boxes are called kept, and uh, this president won his mandate based on his anti corruption, dr. lodge the uh for the systemic change that he promised,
12:20 pm

12:21 pm
office. um, how did not the people would vote and would have voided today? would be very interesting because they will also have to work with the thing, the majority government. and still it will be very important to all the time. and mine are good to have more states and document and strengthen their voice so that they, they, these bargaining full. what about gaining over the raising issues of significance and locked so under the dishes to remain. i think they would look for increasing the seats in solomons and 2nd thing. they would also want legislators who can actually re present those issues that are under solid. so the longest possible time there will she 100 that see that gentle as a lawyer from colombia and sherlock holmes. thank you very much for your insights. thank you. and we take a closer look at one of the issues on the ballot and sri lanka,
