Steve Inskeep和Leila Fadal：共和党参议员将顺利批准特朗普的内阁提名人选，而洛杉矶山火肆虐，南韩总统尹锡悦被捕。 Susan Davis：特朗普部分内阁提名人选将顺利获得确认，例如佛罗里达州参议员Marco Rubio和前国会议员Sean Duffy。但Pam Bondi作为司法部长提名人选，将面临来自民主党的严厉质询；Russ Vogt的提名也将面临争议。总体而言，特朗普的内阁提名人选很可能全部获得确认，因为参议员通常会尊重总统的选择，而且共和党在参议院拥有多数席位。 Martin Koste：洛杉矶山火虽然暂时得到控制，但危险并未完全解除，强风预计再次来临。受灾地区仍然处于封锁状态，这引起了许多房主的沮丧。当局正在进行房屋损毁评估，并采取措施防止抢劫。洛杉矶面临着为失去家园的人们提供住房的巨大挑战。 Anthony Kuhn：韩国总统尹锡悦被捕，这是韩国历史上首次逮捕在职总统。尹锡悦总统的住所外聚集了大量抗议者和警察。尹锡悦被捕后，反对者欢呼雀跃，而支持者则认为这是对法治的破坏。警方成功逮捕尹锡悦的原因是，其安保人员的领导层被指控妨碍公务，最终没有阻止逮捕行动。尹锡悦被捕的政治意义存在争议，有人认为这是破坏法治，也有人认为这是恢复法治的第一步。
