Summary
President-elect Donald Trump nominated Jamieson Greer as U.S. Trade Representative, emphasizing trade challenges amid recent bomb threats against his Cabinet nominees. Greer's experience in trade law aligns with the administration's tough stance on international tariffs, particularly toward China, Mexico, and Canada. These threats, which do not seem credible according to law enforcement, have raised safety concerns as multiple nominees faced swatting incidents. The FBI is investigating the threats, and federal officials confirmed no physical devices were found during the investigations, ensuring safety protocols for Trump’s transition team.
