New York Times vows to fight Trump 'legal abuse' as analysts say his DOJ pick cannot legally lead the agency

Buenos Aires Times—The New York Times announced it will fight what it described as legal abuse by the Trump administration, escalating a confrontation between the White House and the prominent news organization. Separately, analysts argued that Trump's preferred DOJ leadership candidate faces legal barriers that permanently disqualify the person from assuming the role. The two stories reflect a broader conflict over control of legal and law enforcement institutions in the second Trump term.
