President-elect Donald Trump appointed Devin Nunes, CEO of Truth Social, as chair of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board. He also named Troy Edgar as Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security and Bill White as US Ambassador to Belgium. These appointments, announced on Truth Social, have sparked discussions about potential conflicts of interest and policy implications.
Shawn McLeod, a former deputy minister and lawyer with experience in both the private and public sectors, has been selected as Alberta’s next ethics commissioner. His appointment has been recommended by a legislative committee and will replace current commissioner Marguerite Trussler. McLeod’s diverse background in legal and government roles, including his experience as deputy minister of labor relations and special advisor, is expected to contribute to his effectiveness in the role.
