  • Jeremy Carl, Trump's pick for assistant secretary of state for international organisations, has espoused "racist, antisemitic" views, according to a former US state department official, sparking concerns about his fitness for the role.
  • The nomination has raised alarms, with Carl set to manage relationships with the United Nations and its agencies, despite allegedly championing "homophobic views" and extremist ideologies, as reported by The Guardian US.
  • Carl's Senate foreign relations committee hearing is scheduled for Thursday, where he will face questioning over his controversial views, with critics calling for scrutiny of his qualifications and suitability for the diplomatic post.

JUSTICE MATTERS

The Guardian US and New York Times cover different aspects of the Trump administration's nominees, with The Guardian US focusing on Jeremy Carl's "white supremacist, racist, antisemitic and homophobic views", while the New York Times discusses the replacement of a Trump pick with a new prosecutor. The Guardian US uses direct language to describe Carl's views, whereas the New York Times article does not mention the specific views of the nominee, instead highlighting the unlawful serving of the previous nominee. This omission in the New York Times obscures the controversy surrounding Carl's nomination, and the systemic context of the Trump administration's choices.
