Thank you very much and God bless you.

Hot Damn! About time. I’ve been saying use this ever since Trump appointed Richard Grenell acting DNI and it worked out perfectly.

It’s simple. Get a corral of “acting” talent and rotate them in six month shifts around ALL the agencies. Gaetz as AG and Grenell at CIA for six months, then flip flop them. Work in Flynn, Fitton, anyone into the rotation.

It won’t be necessary.

If a nominee does not withdraw, 95-99% of all nominees are confirmed by the Senate, per ChatGPT.

Let Gaetz be a wrecking ball for a year and then bring in Ken Paxton to put it back together.

When will people realize, recess appointments are wins. Getting a person in the office is a win. It's like Executive Orders aren't wins.

If the Democrats were smart, they would confirm Gaetz as soon as they could. Have someone with three years low level legal experience as U.S. AG is a massive win for them.

In addition you can appoint anyone as a “Special Advisor” to the cabinet officer and just let it be known to the cabinet official that the “Special Advisor” makes all final decisions.

The cabinet officer can just be a front person to sign documents.

There are many ways to get actions done.

(In many federal agencies the heads of the agencies are political hacks and the real power lies with subject matter experts who are not subject to Senate confirmation.

The agency head is the person who testifies to Congress and reads information they are given.

That is why so many Senate and House hearings sound so stupid. The agency heads are often clueless.)

“It won’t be necessary.

If a nominee does not withdraw, 95-99% of all nominees are confirmed by the Senate, per ChatGPT.”

Unfortunately we are not in Kansas anymore. The establishment GOP hates Trump and are going to do everything they can to block his agenda. They will be pulling rabbits out of the hat before this is over.

Trump could easily say he himself is the attorney general and that Gaetz will be his special assistant. As president, Trump is already the head of the justice department and all other departments.

If you’ll recall, Trump wanted John Ratcliffe as DNI. McConnell wouldn’t even schedule hearings for him. Trump named Grenell acting DNI and Grenell started declassifying and releasing DS secrets! McConnell couldn’t get Ratcliffe confirmed quickly enough.

Do acting heads on all agencies the swamp refuses to let Trump have his picks. Six months of Gaetz, Grenell, Flynn, Fitton, all their worst nightmares, then Trump will then get his way.

There are going to be several thousand appointments for the Senate to deal with....

The vast majority will be approved.

Those that are not can be worked around in ways discussed in this and other threads.

This is much ado about nothing.

Think about how much mass media coverage Liz Cheney got this election cycle.

She called President Trump every name in the book—and actively campaigned for Harris.

It all amounted to nothing.

Another example—millions of words about the Nikki Haley primary campaign.

All for nothing.

Let Gaetz be a wrecking ball for a year and then bring in Ken Paxton to put it back together.

Not a bad plan.... perhaps give Gaetz a bit more time to really stir it up.

I don’t know, when it comes to Trump the establishment GOP are going to be just as bad as the democrats were. They are not going to help him one bit and only oppose him.

It is going to be one big Lincoln Project.

These Senate pigs always find religion when a Republican makes appointments. With Dems, the freakshow gets near unamious approval. Seriously Fck these azzhoes.

STOP TELLEGRAPHING YOUR PUNCHES!!!

The vast majority will be approved

I’ll bet each will be filibustered

Trump knows all the angles this time. How many DC lawyers are lawyering up right now? $$$$$ from hundreds of thousands of billable hours for the shyster class. Trump will clean up DC if he has to bankrupt everybody in Georgetown.

“If the Democrats were smart, they would confirm Gaetz as soon as they could. Have someone with three years low level legal experience as U.S. AG is a massive win for them.”

LOL - either you forgot the sarcasm tag or that’s the dumbest thing I’ve read all day..
