Delaying presidential appointments for your own party's president is an epic level of nonsense that even the senate RINOs can not get away with forever.

This. Quid Pro Quo seems to occur more now within the Republican Party than across party lines.

It took an average of 103 to 191+ days to confirm President Joe Biden’s executive branch and agency nominees through the U.S. Senate.

All 15 principal Cabinet nominations were approved within 61 days.

This is the way it should be. If they weren't part of the corrupt system it would work like this much more often.

This and this. Could have called a recess over a year ago and gotten ALL approved.

These people who are voted out of office should not go quietly into the sunset. They should have people, legally, harassing them and their families for the pieces of garbage they are until they move to another part of the world.

This is not a win, its a disgrace of the gop....whatever it is....it isnt a party anymore.

It’s amazing what can be done with an actual majority vote.

According to the Partnership for Public Service / Washington Post tracker, more than 100 Trump nominees are still sitting in the Senate right now with about 108 awaiting action.

All told, of the ~800+ top roles they track (out of 1,300+ that require confirmation), only about 360 have been confirmed, which is well into year two of Trump 2.0.

What are we doing here!?

We should not be taking six-week holidays while this many confirmations remain unfinished and the SAVE Act still hasn’t cleared the Senate.

It's time to remove John Thune.

This shite is typically done and over with within the first month of a President’s term in office. We are almost finished year 2 and just now getting around to this with 2 sorry arse republican led houses of Congress.
