President-Elect Trump has tapped China-hawk Congressman Mike Waltz as his National Security Advisor. Meanwhile, Senator Marco Rubio, another outspoken critic of the Chinese Communist Party, is reportedly under consideration for Secretary of State. Additionally, Trump has named former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee as Ambassador to Israel and Steven C. Witkoff as Special Envoy to the Middle East. Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe has also been announced as Trump's pick for Director of the CIA.

A New York judge on Tuesday deferred making an immediate decision on whether presidential immunity should have prevented jurors from seeing certain evidence at Trump's trial this spring — and if the verdict should be tossed.
