Defense Secretary Nominee Pete Hegseth said in an interview Monday that President-elect Donald Trump’s top priority for the Pentagon is to return the military to warfighters. Asked on Fox News’s Hannity what his vision for the Pentagon is, Hegseth said: There’s a lot to be done. First of all, you salute the commander in chief, who got those 76 million votes, and she’s going to chart the way, and I’ll give him advice and counsel along the way. I’ll just say what he told me: ‘Return the Pentagon to the war fighters. Pete, get in there and clean up all the social justice, politically correct garbage on top, and get back to lethality, war, fighting, accountability, meritocracy and readiness.’ And guess what? Ninety-five percent of the people in that building the Pentagon and that wear the uniform — that’s all they want to do anyway. He said focusing on war fighting would change the culture of the Pentagon and address the recruiting and retention crisis. Already, he said, countless families have reached out to tell him that their son or daughter was not going to join, but now they are due to Trump’s election and Hegseth being chosen to lead the Pentagon. “I’m not going to get ahead of the President on policy or or what our posture will be, but we will be strong, and we will have peace through strength, as Donald Trump has said, and we will put America first. That’s what he’s asked me to do at the Pentagon, and that’s my promise to the American people and our war fighters led by President Donald Trump,” he concluded.

Israel expands airstrikes across Syria amid widening power vacuumEfforts are underway to try and salvage the Albion Hotel in Bayfield. The historic building’s roof collapsed early Sunday morning under the weight of heavy snowfall, and rain. No one was in the building at the time of the collapse, and no one was injured, but the structure which was built in the 1840’s suffered extensive damage. After meticulously removing the Albion’s damaged roof yesterday, crews from across Ontario were on Bayfield’s Heritage Main Street today working toward protecting the exposed second floor from the elements. Restoration work underway on the Albion Hotel and Restaurant in Bayfield following the collapse of the building's roof, December 10, 2024 (Scott Miller) Neighbours on scene today thought a temporary roof or roof covering of some kind was going to be installed to keep the incoming snow from causing more damage to the historic structure. In the meantime, over $50,000 has been raised to help out the 27 Albion staff, who will be without a job for the foreseeable future. You can learn more about the Albion Hotel online fundraiser here.

Specialty Chemical Distribution Market Analysis: Key Trends, Share, Growth Drivers, And Forecast 2024-2033
Stock market today: Wall Street rises at the start of a holiday-shortened weekPam Bondi, Donald Trump's pick to be attorney general, is a staunch ally of the former president, defending him against impeachment during his first term and pushing his false claims of election fraud as he sought to cling on to the White House. The 59-year-old former Florida attorney general, if confirmed by the Senate, will now serve as the top law enforcement official in a second Trump administration. "For too long, the partisan Department of Justice has been weaponized against me and other Republicans -- Not anymore," Trump wrote on his Truth Social network. "Pam will refocus the DOJ to its intended purpose of fighting Crime, and Making America Safe Again." Bondi's nomination means the top ranks of the Justice Department will be filled by Trump loyalists, as the president-elect has named three of the lawyers who defended him in his multiple criminal cases to its other high-ranking roles. Trump tapped Bondi to be attorney general on Thursday after his first pick, firebrand ex-Florida lawmaker Matt Gaetz, dropped out amid sexual misconduct allegations and doubts that he could obtain Senate confirmation. A graduate of the University of Florida with a law degree from Stetson University, Bondi served as a prosecutor for 18 years before being elected attorney general of the "Sunshine State" in 2010, the first woman to hold the post. Bondi, a native of Trump's adopted home state of Florida, was reelected to a second term in 2014. As attorney general, Bondi notably fought opioid addiction and human trafficking while taking a tough stance on crime and supporting the death penalty. She sued BP for the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and obtained more than $2 billion in economic relief for Florida, according to her biography page at Ballard Partners, a powerful lobbying firm where she has worked after leaving office. While serving as attorney general, Bondi was drawn into a controversy involving Trump when she declined in 2013 to join a multi-state prosecution accusing Trump University of fraud. It emerged later that Bondi's reelection committee had received a $25,000 donation from the charitable Trump Foundation. Both Trump and Bondi denied any wrongdoing. Bondi joined Trump's legal team during his first impeachment trial, in which he was alleged to have pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to find political dirt on his 2020 election opponent, Democrat Joe Biden. Trump was impeached by the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives but acquitted by the Republican-majority Senate. After the 2020 election, Bondi made television appearances on behalf of Trump and pushed to de-legitimize vote counting in battleground states as part of the push by the former president to overturn the results of the vote. Bondi has also criticized the criminal cases brought against Trump, appearing in solidarity at his New York trial, where he was convicted of falsifying business records to cover up hush money payments to a porn star. At Ballard Partners, Bondi has done work for Amazon, General Motors and Uber and as a registered lobbyist for the oil-rich Gulf nation of Qatar, according to press reports. She is also a member of the America First Policy Institute, a Trump-aligned right-wing think tank. cl/dw
