Trump's Team Sidesteps FBI Checks for Cabinet Appointments

President-elect Donald Trump's transition team is bypassing traditional FBI background checks for some Cabinet picks, opting for private companies to expedite the vetting process. This move reflects Trump's mistrust of the national security establishment and aims to quickly implement his agenda. Critics argue this could overlook potential national security concerns. Controversial figures like Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard are being considered for high-level positions, raising further scrutiny. Trump's approach mirrors his previous transition process, which was criticized for being unprepared.
