President-elect Donald Trump's selection of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Health and Human Services secretary came following several other controversial choices for Cabinet members. Caitlin Huey-Burns takes a look at the president-elect's decision-making process. Matt Gaetz immediately resigned from the House on Wednesday following the surprising announcement that he was President-elect Donald Trump's selection for attorney general. His resignation, however, came ahead of a scheduled vote by the House Ethics Committee this week on whether to release the results of an extensive investigation into allegations against Gaetz of sexual misconduct and illicit drug use, which he has denied. Scott MacFarlane reports. Tom Hanson embedded with fire crews Thursday as they continue to battle stubborn wildfires in New Jersey and New York. New Jersey's dry conditions have helped contribute to the growth of the wildfires. The state has received no significant rainfall since August, and it endured its driest October since 1895. Tropical Storm Sara formed in the Caribbean on Thursday and is churning west. It is forecast to bring life-threatening flooding to portions of Central America this weekend. The West Bank has seen escalating violence since Oct. 7, with Israeli soldiers pursuing militants in residential areas and Jewish settlers mounting attacks on Palestinians in land grabs. Elizabeth Palmer looks at what President-elect Donald Trump's election victory and his selection of Mike Huckabee for U.S. ambassador to Israel could mean for the West Bank's future. The satirical site The Onion has purchased Infowars, the media platform owned by conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. The Onion in its purchase received the support of Sandy Hook families who won over $1.4 billion in a defamation judgment against Jones in 2022. A court had ruled that Jones' assets, including the media company, had to be sold to compensate the families. Lilia Luciano reports.
