Exactly. You’d think an R controlled senate would be doing everything in its power to confirm all of the appointments of the guy who won every swing state and the popular vote. Unfortunately the senate has quite a few bitches like legend

Everybody blames Thune and he is no conservative but it isn’t Thune that is the real problem. It’s Murkowski and the goofball from Nebraska along with a handful of other Rino’s who he doesn’t want to put on record for voting against them so he shields them with the excuse of the filibuster


It's all of them. I thought Blackburn was the exception, but she's just as swampy.

The virtual filibuster and the virtual session needs to end.

They are literally playing make believe.

And Biden didn’t have same party obstruction problem as Trump has. You point out that in comparison be close even though one party control. Save Act would be great place to start as nobody should be against only legitimate legal voting

Thune is far more damaging to the administration than his Democrat counterpart, Schumer…..

And people want to claim Trump is the reason for losing the mid terms.

Thune is a POS.

Which appointments, specifically, do you believe are worthy of a recess appointment?


AUSAs and judges in blue states being held up by blue slips. Because AUSAs arent being confirmed, Obiden led district courts are naming "actings" forcing a court fight with rhe Administration.

Undersecretaries of departments (vacant or occupied by Biden holdovers).

Agency heads (same)

My opinion is the senate should approve each and every appointee remaining before midterms.
If the rinos relinquish control, the federal positions will languish until dems work their magic and R's don't accept any responsibility.
