A handful of Democrats are already sounding approval of Republican Florida Sen. Marco Rubio as President-elect Donald Trump's pick for Secretary of State. Trump has made a flurry of cabinet nominations in the last two weeks, naming all 15 heads of the executive departments. Eyes are now on the U.S. Senate to confirm the candidates. Some Democrats remain critical of Trump's Defense pick, Fox News host Pete Hegseth, and his national intelligence and national security adviser choices, Tulsi Gabbard and Sebastian Gorka, respectively. Trump has floated the possibility of forcing the Senate into an extended recess to bypass the Cabinet confirmation process. A handful of Democrats are sounding their approval of Republican Florida Sen. Marco Rubio as Secretary of State but others continue to doubt some cabinet picks made by President-elect Donald Trump . "I think Marco Rubio is enormously well-qualified for the job for which he's been nominated," Democratic Senator-elect from California Adam Schiff said on NBC's "Meet the Press " on Sunday morning. "I still want to ask questions, I'm not going to completely pre-judge even him, but he's unquestionably qualified." Trump has made a flurry of cabinet picks in the last two weeks, naming his choices for all 15 heads of the executive departments. Eyes are now on the U.S. Senate to confirm the candidates. Rubio is deemed one of the "less MAGA" options within Trump's circle, a Trump ally told NBC News earlier this month , with another saying that he has become "far more aligned with the President on issues regarding tariffs." Trump campaigned in support of universal tariffs in the 2024 election cycle, with a specifically harsh 60% tariff on goods from China . Rubio is notoriously tough on China and is a fierce advocate for the demonetization of social media platform TikTok, owned by China's ByteDance, in the United States. He is also hawkish on Iran while remaining ambivalent about support for Ukraine. Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman also said that he is a "fan" of Rubio in an interview with Fox News' "Fox News Sunday," and said he will vote to confirm him. Fetterman said he might also "enthusiastically vote yes" for Rep. Elise Stefanik to serve as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, and for union-friendly Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer as Labor secretary. Fetterman also said he is keeping an open mind for other candidates, such as his former rival for the Pennsylvania Senate seat Dr. Mehmet Oz for Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services administrator . "I'm not going to pre-hate this. I'm going to have an open conversation for anyone that I'm open to having part of that conversation," Fetterman said. Democratic Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth said she has "a friendship" with Rubio and said she's looking forward to talking to him about his policies. Duckworth, a combat veteran injured in Iraq, weighed in on Trump's defense and veteran affairs picks, as well, in her interview with CNN's "State of the Union" on Sunday morning. While the senator said she is open to conversations with Republican Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia, Trump's pick to lead the Department of Veteran Affairs, she deemed Fox News host Pete Hegseth "unqualified" for the position of Secretary of Defense. "He never commanded a company, let alone battalions, brigades or whole armies," Duckworth said of Hegseth, who is an Army National Guard veteran. "There are ways to be disruptors without actually putting people who have never run an organization larger than a platoon to be Secretary of Defense," Duckworth continued, adding that Collins would be a good example. "The VA has been having a terrible issue with their electronic medical records program. Hopefully Doug Collins gets in there and is a disruptor." Hegseth has also been under fire for a 2017 police investigation in connection with an alleged sexual assault at a California hotel. Another name that has drawn substantial criticism from the Senate is former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, Trump's candidate for Director of National Intelligence. Sen.-elect Schiff said Gabbard's lack of experience in the House Intelligence Committee, as well as her purported Kremlin ties , concern him. Sen. Duckworth alleged that Gabbard is "compromised," and she worries that the former congresswoman couldn't pass a background check. "I think that she is someone who is wholly backing and supportive of [Russian President Vladimir Putin], and I worry that she will not have America's best interests at heart," Duckworth said. Some Republicans, however, refute the claims that Duckworth is a Russian asset. "I think it's insulting. It's a slur, quite frankly," Republican Sen. Eric Schmitt of Missouri said Sunday on NBC's " Meet the Press ." Meanwhile, H.R. McMaster, who was previously national security adviser during Trump's first term as president, said he doesn't view Sebastian Gorka, Trump's former national security adviser, as the right person to advise on national security in the second term. "I think that the President [and] others who are working with him will probably determine that pretty quickly," McMaster said on CBS's "Face the Nation" on Sunday. McMaster, who has been openly critical of some aspects of Trump's foreign policy agenda after his time in the administration, also said he is worried about some Republican officials' tendencies to parrot Russian President Putin's talking points. "They've got to disabuse themselves of this, you know, strange affection for Vladimir Putin," McMaster said. The vocal pushback from Democrats in Congress has led Trump to float the possibility of forcing the Senate into an extended recess in 2025 to bypass the confirmation process when appointing Cabinet officials. Recess appointments are "and should be on the table," Republican Senator Bill Hagerty of Tennessee told ABC News' "This Week" on Sunday. "This is a constitutionally available tool. What we want to see is Democrats cooperate with us. But if the resistance movement gets as heavy as it was. ... We need to put a team in place around him, and [Trump] needs every tool at his disposal to do that," Hagerty said.NoneHegseth has a history of supporting controversial policies involving the military

LSU women control the glass, roll past NC State to pick up first ranked win of season
, the iconic socialite and entrepreneur, has left fans stunned by revealing her ageless beauty secrets which she has achieved without Botox, fillers, or cosmetic surgery. At 43 years of age, Hilton credits her glowing complexion and youthful appearance to a disciplined skincare routine and natural treatments, steering clear of invasive procedures. "I've never done Botox or fillers. I'm proud of staying natural while many people start cosmetic procedures in their twenties," said in a recent interview. Instead, she prioritizes self-care and cutting-edge, non-invasive technology like Neurotris, a microcurrent machine that firms facial muscles and rejuvenates skin. Her go-to esthetician in Beverly Hills ensures treatments target anti-aging, pigmentation, and overall skin health. 's dedication to her skincare regimen is influenced by early advice from her mother, Kathy Hilton, who emphasized sun protection. "Staying out of the sun and practicing proper skincare are key," she added. Paris also champions a positive body image and criticized the anti-aging industry for exploiting insecurities rather than promoting self-love. Hilton has changed her image in recent years, trading the Barbie-inspired looks of her early fame for elegant ensembles by Lanvin and Valentino. The transformation mirrors her graceful approach to aging, aligning with her belief in embracing natural beauty. With her new routine, Hilton has managed to defy the ageing process and her outspoken nature about her preference for a natural look is sure to inspire young fans in the right way.The investigation team on the death of featherweight boxer Ubayd Haider has already interviewed all the local individuals involved in the fight. This was confirmed to SUNsports yesterday by the Minister of Youth and Sports Jese Saukuru. “We still have the last six people from overseas left to be interviewed and the investigation will be finishing this week,” Saukuru said. “Once the interviews are completed (compiled) and together with the findings on the (submitted) report a decision will be made.” It is understood that South Pacific Boxing Promotion (SPBP) director Mohammed Shameem, promoter Fred Chand, IBO (International Boxing Organisation) Fight Commissioner Justin Kennedy, referee Ignatuis Missailidis and a few overseas experts are left to be interviewed. Haider collapsed after his ninth round TKO (technical knockout) loss to Sydney-based boxer Runqi Zhou for the IBO Asia Pacific super featherweight title fight at Nadi’s Prince Charles Park on Saturday, October 26. He was taken to Zen’s Medical and transferred to Lautoka’s Aspen Hospital where he underwent head surgery as he was in a coma. He failed to recover and died on November 10. Haider was buried at the Raralevu Cemetery in Tailevu on November 12. He is the fourth Fiji boxer to have died from head injuries sustained in the fight. The other three boxers were heavyweight Semi Galoa in 1953 at Suva’s Lilac Theatre, then in 1975 was welterweight boxer Waisea Tavusa at Suva’s Old Town Hall and in 1990 middleweight boxer Filimoni Takayawa at the National Gymnasium in Suva. Saukuru said what is paramount here is the welfare of the athletes. This was after questions were raised on why the fight was not stopped earlier. In an earlier interview with Boxing Commission of Fiji (BCF) chairman Adi Narayan indicated that only two people are authorised to stop the fight, which is the referee and the boxer’s corner man. Saukuru said the public should expect an answer after this week. He added that at the moment there is an unclear view on how the investigation would shift as there are a lot of things that have to be taken into account. “The investigation has the power also to find some criminal offenses. At the moment, we will leave it with them (Board for Enquiry) before they make a submission,” he said. Feedback: josua.buredua@fijisun.com.fj

Lil Wayne, GloRilla, Camila Cabello to perform at College Football National ChampionshipTop executives from the U.S. telecom industry and national security officials gathered at the White House to address concerns over a Chinese cyber-espionage campaign targeting high-ranking U.S. political figures. What Happened : Chinese hackers managed to breach major U.S. telecom providers to spy on phone calls and text messages. The meeting was an opportunity for telecom executives to propose ways the government could bolster its defenses against such advanced cyber-attacks, the White House stated. According to the report by CNN , the cyber-attack is seen as one of the most significant challenges to cyber and national security for the upcoming Donald Trump administration. A classified briefing for all senators has been scheduled for December 4, after Congress reconvenes from its recess next month. “This is by far the worst telecom hack in our nation’s history,” Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), who chairs the Senate Intelligence Committee, told the outlet. The full scope of the hack, its implications, and the individuals affected are still being investigated. According to Warner, the FBI has notified fewer than 150 victims, most in the Washington area. But all of those victims have likely called or sent texts to numerous people, meaning the number of records accessed by the hackers is likely far greater. The hackers could listen to the calls of specific targets for certain periods of time, said Warner. Also Read: Possible Espionage Threat? US Officials Warn Of Chinese Interference With Undersea Internet Cables In Pacific US broadband and internet providers AT&T T , Verizon VZ , and Lumen LUMN have all been victims of this hacking campaign. The hackers also targeted phone communications of senior figures from both the Republican and Democratic parties. China has refuted the hacking allegations. However, U.S. officials continue to express concern about China’s hacking program, which, according to FBI Director Christopher Wray , is larger than those of all other major countries combined.
