Matt Gaetz’s decision Thursday to withdraw as Donald Trump’s pick for Attorney General resets the clock in a high-stakes race over who will control the Justice Department during the second Trump administration. And, much like the post of Treasury Secretary , the jockeying has begun. Gaetz took himself out of the process, saying his nomination “was unfairly becoming a distraction.” He faced a potentially rough confirmation process in the Senate over allegations of sexual misconduct , which he has denied. Gaetz had previously resigned from the House, so, at present, he will hold no post in the federal government. (Trump could, however, appoint him to a role that does not require Senate confirmation.) With Gaetz gone, the focus shifts to who Trump might appoint next to the AG role—although Democrats who disapproved of the Gaetz pick still aren’t likely to be thrilled. The Trump transition team did not reply to a request for comment, but here are a few of the possible contenders. Senator Mike Lee: Considered by some at one point as the leading candidate, the Utah Senator aided efforts to overturn the 2020 election. He has also spread conspiracy theories about the January 6 attack on the Capitol. That’s a big turnaround from 2016, when he didn’t even vote for Trump. Lee is currently poised to lead the Senate Energy committee next year. | Jeffrey Clark : Known best as the former assistant attorney general who pressured officials in the Justice Department to overturn Trump’s loss in 2020, Clark is currently under indictment in Georgia for his role in that election. Three months ago, a disciplinary committee in Washington, D.C., said Clark should be disbarred for two years for efforts to interfere with election results. Mark Paoletta : Appointing Paoletta to the attorney general role would draw a dotted line from the Justice Department to the Supreme Court. Paoletta represented Ginni Thomas, wife of Justices Clarence Thomas, in the House investigation of the January 6 attack on the Capitol. He also helped prepare the nominations of Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh. He has a history with Trump as well, having served as general counsel for the Office of Management and Budget and has argued that Trump, as president, will have the right to dictate who gets investigated and charged. Andrew Bailey : Bailey currently serves as Attorney General of Missouri, a role he has held since 2022. In that short time, he has overseen dozens of lawsuits against the Biden administration. He recently won reelection in Missouri, but has been criticized for having too national a focus, such as his suit against the state of New York to halt Trump’s sentencing until after the election. (The Supreme Court rejected that request.) Judge Aileen Cannon : Appointed by Trump in 2020, Cannon came to the national spotlight when she dismissed all charges against him in the classified documents case in Florida. Trump has publicly thanked her for that ruling and spoken highly of her. She is currently overseeing the trial of Ryan Routh, who was accused of planning an assassination attempt against Donald Trump at a Florida golf course in September. Mike Davis : A former clerk for Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch, Davis has joked about assuming the AG role on social media, writing he was “too charming to get confirmed.” He played a key role in getting many judicial nominees approved during Trump’s first presidency and has served as something of a bulldog for Trump, advising former Rep. Liz Cheney and special counsel Jack Smith to “lawyer up” over their roles in the January 6 investigation and vowing a “reign of terror” upon Trump’s reelection. Stephen Miller : Miller served as a policy advisor in Trump’s first administration and has been one of the strongest advocates for mass deportations during the campaign. Trump has already named him as deputy chief of staff for policy , but with the AG role open once again, he could change his mind. Miller was a chief architect, along with new border czar Tom Homan, on the family separation policy at the border in the first administration—and as White House spokesman, regularly made unsubstantiated claims of election fraud . After departing the White House, he served as president of America First Legal , an organization of former Trump advisers.

Alifa Chowdhury’s successful campaign to lead the University of Michigan’s student government promised just one thing: to block financing for campus groups until the university agreed to divest from companies that Chowdhury said profited from the Israel-Hamas war. Nine turbulent months later, Chowdhury is out, impeached and removed from office by the student assembly just before midnight Monday. Impeachment and Removal Chowdhury’s ouster follows a lopsided impeachment vote in mid-November, which also led to the removal of Elias Atkinson, the body’s vice president and a fellow activist. In a student judicial hearing that spanned seven days and lasted more than 20 hours, they were found guilty on a single charge of dereliction of duty — the consequence of effectively fulfilling the shutdown their campaign promised. Related Story: Campus Polarization and Controversy Like the protest encampments at universities across the country, the takeover of Michigan’s student government by pro-Palestinian activists last spring polarized the campus. The activists’ tactics drew objections from students who said their obstructionism went too far and did little to help the Palestinian cause. The activists saw their movement as a way to shake university officials and students out of what they saw as complacency, and face the plight of Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip. Limited Impact and Opposition But like many student protests, the takeover made little headway — and maybe even stirred up opposition. The university, which had long said that it would not divest, adopted a policy of institutional neutrality in October, meaning that it would avoid taking stances on political or social issues that were not directly connected to the school. Margaret Peterman, a sophomore member of the student assembly who started the impeachment motion, said the president and vice president’s conduct in office and their unwillingness to aid the student body were “inexcusable.” Related Story: Campaign Promises and Aftermath The impeached president and vice president, both of whom declined to comment, ran for their positions last spring as part of the Shut It Down Party, with the promise that they would withhold the roughly $1.3 million of annual funding until the university’s regents agreed to total divestment from companies that they said profited from Israel’s war in Gaza. They won their elections handily with a low voter turnout. With the assembly’s leadership ousted, the speaker of the student assembly, Mario Thaqi, will finish out the presidential term. — This article originally appeared in The New York Times.

Chelsea’s surprise defeat at home to Fulham earlier in the day had been an unexpected gift for Arne Slot’s side and they drove home their advantage by outclassing the struggling Foxes. Having overcome the early setback of conceding to Jordan Ayew, with even the travelling fans expressing their surprise they were winning away after taking just five points on the road this season, the home team had too much quality. That was personified by the excellent Cody Gakpo, whose eighth goal in his last 14 appearances produced the equaliser in first-half added time with the Netherlands international unlucky to have a second ruled out for offside by VAR. Further goals from Curtis Jones and Mohamed Salah, with his 19th of the season, stretched Liverpool’s unbeaten run to 22 matches. For Leicester, who had slipped into the bottom three after Wolves’ win over Manchester United, it is now one win from the last 10 in the league and Ruud van Nistelrooy has plenty of work to do, although he was not helped here by the absence of leading scorer Jamie Vardy through injury. It looked liked Liverpool meant business from the off with Salah’s volley from Gakpo’s far-post cross just being kept out by Jakub Stolarczyk, making his league debut after former Liverpool goalkeeper Danny Ward was omitted from the squad having struggled in the defeat to Wolves. But if the hosts thought that had set the tone they were badly mistaken after being opened up with such simplicity in only the sixth minute. Stephy Mavididi broke down the left and his low cross picked out Ayew, who turned Andy Robertson far too easily, with his shot deflecting off Virgil van Dijk to take it just out of Alisson Becker’s reach. With a surprise lead to cling to Leicester knew they had to quell the storm heading their way and they began by trying to take as much time out of the game as they could, much to Anfield’s frustration. It took a further 18 minutes for Liverpool to threaten with Gakpo cutting in from the left to fire over, a precursor for what was to follow just before half-time. That was the prompt for the attacks to rain down on the Foxes goal, with Salah’s shot looping up off Victor Kristiansen and landing on the roof of the net and Robertson heading against a post. Gakpo’s inclination to come in off the left was proving a problem for the visitors, doing their utmost to resist the pressure, but when Salah curled a shot onto the crossbar on the stroke of half-time it appeared they had survived. However, Gakpo once again drifted in off the flank to collect an Alexis Mac Allister pass before curling what is fast becoming his trademark effort over Stolarczyk and inside the far post. Early the second half Darwin Nunez fired over Ryan Gravenberch’s cross before Jones side-footed home Mac Allister’s cross after an intricate passing move inside the penalty area involving Nunez, Salah and the Argentina international. Leicester’s ambition remained limited but Patson Daka should have done better from a two-on-one counter attack with Mavididi but completely missed his kick with the goal looming. 🎯 pic.twitter.com/IqmAsKylLR — Liverpool FC (@LFC) December 26, 2024 Nunez forced a save out of the goalkeeper before Gakpo blasted home what he thought was his second only for VAR to rule Nunez was offside in the build-up. But Liverpool’s third was eventually delivered by the left foot of Salah, who curled the ball outside Kristiansen, inside Jannick Vestergaard and past Stolarczyk inside the far post.Ireland defender’s performance against Manchester United should force Heimir Hallgrimsson rethink

On Thursday, San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan announced that linebacker Dre Greenlaw will miss the team's final two games . Greenlaw, who recently returned from an Achilles injury, has been dealing with lingering soreness after playing in the last two games. As a precaution, the 49ers have decided to shut him down for the remainder of the season. In response, the 49ers have opened the practice window for rookie linebacker Tatum Bethune . Typically, this move initiates a 21-day period for the team to activate Bethune off injured reserve. However, with only two games left in the season, it's unclear if Bethune will be activated in time for Monday night's matchup against the Detroit Lions. The decision could simply be an opportunity for the young defender to earn additional practice reps before the offseason. The 49ers selected Bethune in the seventh round of April's draft. This season, he has played just eight defensive snaps, recording two tackles and a fumble recovery, but he has more on special teams, logging 130 snaps. Bethune was placed on injured reserve on November 23 with a knee injury. This article first appeared on 49ers Webzone and was syndicated with permission.

It was a warm Monday morning in September when a group of fishermen came across a wooden canoe packed with dead migrants floating 43 miles from Senegal’s capital . The migrants, whose bodies were in an “advanced state of decomposition”, are believed to have been making the treacherous 1,250 mile-long journey from to the Spanish off the coast of north-west Africa. It was not the first ghost boat to be discovered by fishermen, with more and more desperate migrants cramming on to rickety wooden boats that often fall apart or are blown across the Atlantic before reaching their destination. Despite knowing the risks, which include death by starvation, dehydration, and drowning, thousands of migrants from Senegal brave the journey every year, and there are no signs of the route slowing down, unlike most other migration journeys in Europe. Migration crossings through the west decreased by one per cent in the first nine months of the year, while the central Mediterranean saw journeys plummet by 64 per cent. But the West African route has surged 100 per cent this year, figures show, bucking a wider trend. Ousmane* made the week-long journey from Senegal to the Canary Islands on a rickety wooden boat surrounded by lifeless bodies fearing he would be the next to die. “Women cry and cry, and so do the men, just because it is so hard to be in the bottom of the boat, surrounded by death. Sometimes you even lose your memory and black out,” Ousmane told The Telegraph. The young man, who would not reveal his name or age, completed his journey, but fellow passengers weren’t so lucky. The death toll along the migration route has surpassed more than 800 this year, a 76 per cent increase compared with the same period last year. The real death toll is likely to be even higher, authorities fear. On some journeys, none of the migrants makes it to their destination alive. At least 30 bodies were found on that boat off the coast of Senegal in September, according to military authorities. Judging by the decomposed state of the bodies, the migrant boat had likely been adrift on the Atlantic Ocean for several days before it was found. Similarly, the bodies of 24 migrants from sub-Saharan Africa were brought to land by Spain’s at the start of August. Two of those who died were children. The route has become a major talking point in Senegal, the Canary Islands and mainland Spain. One migrant who made the journey in a small fishing boat told The Telegraph emotionally: “The number of people that are dying – there are thousands of people losing their lives on the way. Some boats never reach their destination.” The reasons for the surge are complex, according to Inhira García Belda, who works as a social integrator for asylum seekers in Tenerife, the largest of Spain’s Canary Islands. “We are talking about thousands of people, some of them are looking for a better job in Europe, others are asylum seekers ... fleeing due to Macky Sall’s regime,” she said. Poverty is a major factor driving people out of Senegal, according to Douglas Yates, an associate professor who specialises in African politics at the American Graduate School in Paris. “A typical Senegalese person eats rice, and if they can get it, a little fish. That’s it... so this kind of poverty, which has been around for ever, is driving people away. There are no real jobs or opportunities,” he told The Telegraph. Mr Yates pointed out that a large proportion of Senegalese migrants making the journey are young men, who are prone to being influenced on social media. “Everybody there has a phone, so they see the rich world, and they look at their own situation and see there are no opportunities. They also see Senegalese people, especially in the capital, getting rich.” He explained that , who was president of Senegal until March of this year, had promised to “jumpstart” the country’s economy, but for many people, their economic situation worsened – especially after Covid. Oumar*, who also made the journey from Senegal to the Canary Islands this year, did so for this reason. “I decided to take the leap because life in Senegal is very, very hard. There’s no work, there’s nothing,” he told The Telegraph. The Canary Islands have become the favoured destination for migrants, and therefore smugglers, because it is seen as an entry point into Europe, given the Canary Islands’ status as a Spanish autonomous community. “Spain might not be the final destination,” Ms Belda explains, “but it is the closest European country to the west African coast... they are unable to reach the continent by plane due to visa rejections so the only way to get there is by boat.” It is not always what migrants expect either, one Senegalese national told The Telegraph. “The journey was so risky and dangerous, it can’t even be described. The sea was so rough that the captain wanted to return, but others wanted to continue, so a fight broke out,” they explained. “No matter your situation, it is not worth making this deadly journey because not everyone makes it.” Senegal’s government announced a 10-year plan in August to tackle illegal crossings and the surge in migrant deaths. It has also become a political football between the Spanish government and authorities in the Canary Islands, which saw 40,000 illegal crossings in 2023, the highest for three decades. Fernando Clavijo, president of the Canary Islands, has called on , the Spanish prime minister, to do more to resolve the crisis. “Every 45 minutes, a migrant dies trying to reach our beaches. This means trafficking mafias are increasingly becoming more powerful,” he said. Earlier this summer Mr Sánchez ended a tour of Africa in Senegal, announcing a plan to tackle illegal immigration at a press conference alongside , who replaced Mr Sall in April of this year. “This region is of the utmost strategic importance for Spain, and we want to contribute to its stability and prosperity,” Mr Sánchez insisted. But as Mr Yates explained, these sort of complex political agreements “take time” to come into effect, and there are no signs that the deep-rooted economic issues causing poverty in Senegal will abate under the new regime. “They have a development plan but it’s not going to increase Senegal’s GDP,” Mr Yates said. “Senegal can create rich people but it doesn’t make anything... instead they’re doing this kind of symbolism stuff, like anti-colonialism. It’s just rhetoric.” All this means the number of migrants making the treacherous journey to the Canary Islands is unlikely to fall anytime soon. Moussa*, despite knowing what he knows about the danger surrounding the journey, still plans to make his way to the Canary Islands next year. “I want to work, integrate and to have a quiet, peaceful, stable life.” *Liverpool player ratings vs Leicester: Curtis Jones shines but struggling star gets 4/10
