The US Senate approved Donald Trump’s nominee, Dan Caine, as the nation’s top military officer with a vote of 60 to 25, following the president’s abrupt dismissal of the previous chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The nomination faced criticism from Democrats, who accused Trump of politicizing military leadership, while Caine assured he would maintain a nonpartisan military culture. Separately, the US Supreme Court upheld a judge’s order for the Trump administration to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, wrongly deported to El Salvador.
