提拔七年亲信为幕僚长，特朗普夫人宣布首个任命，并计划重返白宫后在三地往返
时隔四年即将重新担任美国第一夫人的梅拉尼娅·特朗普宣布任命长期亲信海莉·哈里森为其幕僚长。这是自特朗普当选总统以来，梅拉尼娅首次宣布与其白宫东翼办公室相关的人事任命，也是其首次宣布聘用重要官员。
据报道，负责第一夫人事务交接的“梅拉尼娅·特朗普办公室”于当地时间22日在社交平台账号上宣布了任命消息，并介绍说，哈里森“在过去7年中，在第一夫人团队中发挥了不可或缺的作用，并展现了卓越的领导力。”
同时声明中还提到：“她对白宫的运作有深刻的理解，作为幕僚长，她将与政府的其他部门进行战略性协调，并监督管理东翼（第一夫人及其团队的办公场所）团队。”
据报道，哈里森是一位长期效忠特朗普家族的核心成员，她曾在特朗普第一届政府期间担任白宫东翼运营总监，并在特朗普卸任后随同梅拉尼娅前往佛罗里达的海湖庄园继续工作。
在白宫任职期间，她与在白宫西翼任职的低级别职员威廉结婚。在特朗普卸任当天，这对夫妇与特朗普夫妇一起乘坐“海军陆战队一号”离开白宫。此后，根据美国联邦选举委员会的记录，海莉和威廉两人在特朗普的政治行动委员会领取薪水，薪资水平相近，在每月8万至10万美元之间。
哈里森及其丈夫曾卷入特朗普机密文件的联邦调查。据特别检察官杰克·史密斯的起诉书，哈里森（被称为“特朗普员工1”）在管理文件搬迁时，与另一名助手讨论如何腾出办公空间。据称，她提到“淋浴间还有一些空间可以放他的其他东西”，这些内容被记录在案。其丈夫威廉曾接受大陪审团的问询。
特别检察官杰克·史密斯预计将在美国第47任总统特朗普宣誓就职前结束此案的调查。
据知情人士透露，尽管梅拉尼娅即将重返白宫，她并不打算长期居住在白宫，而是计划在纽约、佛罗里达和华盛顿之间往返。
谈及她此前在白宫的经历，这位即将上任的第一夫人最近表示：“我并不感到焦虑，因为这一次不同了。我拥有更多的经验和知识。”
她补充说：“当你进入白宫时，你会知道会发生什么。现在我知道需要寻找什么样的人——他们应该站在我的团队的一边，与我有相同的愿景，为我服务，因为他们是在为国家服务。”
而此前，据环球时报报道，当地时间13日，拜登在白宫会见特朗普，这是特朗普赢得选举以来两人首次会晤。报道称，这种会见是美国现任和未来总统之间的传统仪式，妻子们通常也会参加，但梅拉尼娅拒绝了现任第一夫人吉尔当天在白宫喝茶并参观的邀请——这打破了几十年来的传统。
美国当选总统特朗普正在快速推进组阁，然而，被视为“二号关键职位”的人选提名却意外“翻车”。
由于深陷丑闻、在参议院受阻，当地时间11月21日，被特朗普提名为司法部长的共和党前众议员马特·盖茨宣布放弃提名。
数小时后，特朗普宣布新人选，提名佛罗里达州前总检察长帕姆·邦迪接替盖茨为司法部长。
外界认为，盖茨退出对特朗普而言是一次尴尬的挫折，意味着组阁首次遇阻。鉴于其他一些内阁人选也不乏争议，难保组阁进程不会再生波折。
自称已“干扰”过渡
当天，盖茨在社交平台上宣布这一决定。
他表示，其提名已经给特朗普的过渡工作造成“干扰”，因此他停止考虑担任司法部长一职。
据悉，当天，盖茨和特朗普提名的国防部长人选海格塞斯与当选副总统万斯同赴国会山，希望争取共和党参议员批准两人的提名。
盖茨在闭门会议结束后就决定放弃司法部长提名。
自上周被特朗普提名为司法部长以来，针对盖茨的争议和负面消息不断，包括涉嫌与一名17岁少女进行性交易等。为此，盖茨还遭司法部、众议院道德委员会的调查。但盖茨否认相关指控。
与此同时，盖茨被指毫无司法经验。他从未在司法部工作过，也从未担任过联邦政府的检察官。
知情人士透露，盖茨因涉嫌性交易和吸毒等面临审查，在认定自己无法获得参议院的批准后，作出放弃提名的决定。
首位佛州女总检察长
相比之下，特朗普新提名的司法部长人选邦迪却被认为比盖茨有资格出任该职。
与零司法经验的盖茨不同，现年59岁的邦迪担任检察长长达18年，也是首位担任佛州总检察长的女性，于2011年至2019年在任。
与其他入选者一样，邦迪也是特朗普的长期盟友和坚定捍卫者。
在特朗普第一任期，她在阿片类药物和药物滥用委员会任职。
特朗普第一次遭弹劾调查时，她是辩护团队成员之一。
在特朗普涉嫌不当处理机密文件案中，她与其他律师共同起草陈述书力挺特朗普，并声称特别检察官史密斯被非法任命。
近来，邦迪领导右翼智库“美国优先政策研究所”的法律部门。该智库与特朗竞选团队密切合作，帮助制定新政府政策。
邦迪是保守派人士，在担任佛州总检察长期间，以严打犯罪闻名。
法律界人士称，从履历上看，邦迪与盖茨形成鲜明对比，比后者有资格担任司法部长一职。
特朗普在宣布提名时也是力捧邦迪，称她“致力于制止毒品和芬太尼贩运”，赞其“聪明而强硬”，是“‘美国优先’的斗士”。
他表示，邦迪上任后将重点打击犯罪并“让美国再次安全”。

Melania Trump, who is returning to the role of first lady of the United States after a four-year hiatus, has announced the appointment of longtime confidant Hailey Harrison as her chief of staff. This is the first time Melania Trump has announced appointments related to her East Wing office since Trump became president, and the first time she has announced major hires.
Melania Trump's office, which is in charge of the first lady's transition, announced the appointment on its social media account on Tuesday (local time), saying that Harrison has "played an integral role in the First Lady's team over the past seven years and demonstrated outstanding leadership."
"She has a deep understanding of White House operations and, as Chief of staff, will strategically coordinate with other parts of the administration and oversee the East Wing team," the statement added.
Harrison is a longtime Trump family loyalist who served as director of East Wing operations during Trump's first administration and traveled with Melania to Florida's Mar-a-Lago resort to continue her work after Trump left office.
During her time at the White House, she married William, a junior staffer in the West Wing. On the day Trump left office, the couple left the White House aboard Marine One with the Trumps. Since then, Hailey and William have drawn salaries from Trump's political action committee at similar rates, between $80,000 and $100,000 a month, according to Federal Election Commission records.
Harrison and her husband were involved in federal investigations of classified Trump documents. According to Special Counsel Jack Smith's indictment, Harrison - known as "Trump Employee 1" - was managing the document relocation when he discussed with another aide how to free up office space. She allegedly mentioned that there was "some room in the shower for his other things," which were recorded. Her husband, William, was questioned by a grand jury.
Special Counsel Jack Smith is expected to wrap up the case before president Trump is sworn in as the 47th president of the United States.
Despite her upcoming return to the White House, Melania Trump does not plan to live in the White House permanently, but plans to split her time between New York, Florida and Washington, according to people familiar with the matter.
Speaking about her previous experiences in the White House, the incoming first lady recently said, "I don't feel anxious because this time is different." I have more experience and knowledge."
She added: "When you get into the White House, you'll know what to expect. Now I know what kind of people to look for - people who should be on my team, who share my vision, who serve me because they are serving the country."
Earlier, according to the global Times, on the 13th local time, Biden met with Trump at the White House, which was the first meeting between the two since Trump won the election. The meeting is a traditional ritual between the current and future presidents of the United States, and the wives usually attend, but Melania turned down an invitation from Jill, the current first lady, to have tea and a tour at the White House that day - breaking with decades of tradition.
Us President-elect Donald Trump is rapidly advancing the formation of his cabinet, but the nomination of the candidate considered to be the "second key position" has unexpectedly "overturned".
Due to the scandal, blocked in the Senate, on November 21, local time, the Republican former representative Matt Gates, who was nominated by Trump to be the attorney general, announced that he would abandon his nomination.
Hours later, Trump announced his new choice, naming former Florida Attorney general PAM Bondi to succeed Gates as attorney general.
Gates's exit is seen as an embarrassing setback for Trump, which means that the formation of a cabinet has met its first obstacles. Given that some of the other cabinet choices are also controversial, there is no guarantee that the process will not be further complicated.
Claimed to have "interfered" with the transition
On the same day, Gates announced the decision on the social platform.
He said his nomination had caused a "distraction" to Trump's transition and that he had stopped considering the job.
It is reported that on the same day, Gates and Trump's nominee for Secretary of defense Hagseth and Vice president-elect Vance went to the Capitol Hill, hoping to fight for Republican senators to approve their nominations.
Gates decided to withdraw his nomination for attorney general after the closed-door meeting.
Since being nominated by Trump as attorney general last week, controversy and negative news against Gates have continued, including allegations that he paid for sex with a 17-year-old girl. Gates was also investigated by the Justice department and the House Ethics Committee. Mr Gates denies the allegations.
Gates, meanwhile, has been accused of having no judicial experience. He has never worked at the Justice Department or as a prosecutor for the federal government.
Gates, who faced scrutiny for alleged sex trafficking and drug use, withdrew his nomination after concluding he could not win Senate confirmation, according to people familiar with the matter.
First female attorney general of Florida
In contrast, Trump's new nominee for attorney general, Bondy, is seen as more qualified for the job than Gates.
Unlike Gates, who has no judicial experience, Bundy, 59, has served as attorney general for 18 years and is the first woman to serve as Florida's attorney general, serving from 2011 to 2019.
Like other inductees, Bundy is a longtime ally and staunch defender of Trump.
During Trump's first term, she served on the Commission on Opioids and Drug Abuse.
She was part of Trump's defense team during his first impeachment inquiry.
In the case of Trump's alleged mishandling of classified documents, she and other lawyers drafted a brief in support of Trump and claimed that special counsel Smith was illegally appointed.
Most recently, Bundy headed the legal arm of the right-wing think tank America First policy Institute. The think tank worked closely with the Trump campaign to help shape the new administration's policies.
Bundy, a conservative, was known for his tough on crime when he was Florida's attorney general.
Legal insiders say Mr. Bundy's record contrasts sharply with that of Mr. Gates and makes him more qualified to be attorney general.
In announcing the nomination, Trump also touted Bundy, calling her "dedicated to stopping drug and fentanyl trafficking," calling her "smart and tough" and an "America First" fighter."
He said Bundy would focus on fighting crime and "making America safe again."
