WASHINGTON, DC – Senate majority leader John Tune (R-SD) said on Wednesday morning that the US Senate in a quick clip to confirm President Donald Trump's entire cabinet on Breitbart News alone It's moving and the Chamber of Commerce will soon be successful.
As of Wednesday afternoon, the Senate confirmed 12 cabinet-level officials for Trump — extending the pace of both Trump's first term and former president Joe Biden's only term — And it looks like after a major breakthrough with the rest of the candidates, the process in which the Senate will soon see Trump's entire cabinet.
“At the moment, this is at least for the moment, despite the Democrat delays and stalling, the Senate is currently checking candidates at twice the rate of 2017 and 2021,” Thune said late Wednesday morning, Breitbart News I talked to. “As of this morning, we've confirmed 11. We're voting for Scott Turner's appointment this afternoon. In President Trump's first term and President Biden's term on that, they're six. There were only cabinet candidates for the Senate Democrats, unfortunately, are slowly yelling the process, and they choose to do this the hard way and drag it out, but Senate Republicans I think we have demonstrated that we are serious about checking candidates as soon as possible.
Since this interview, Turner has been confirmed as Trump's Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). He is Trump's Secretary of State Marco Rubio, CIA John Ratcliffe, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, Treasury Secretary Scott Bescent, Attidy Generation Pam Bondin, Secretary of Defense, Interior Pete Hegses, and Doug. Burgham's Secretary of Home Affairs Sean Duffy, Energy Secretary Chris Wright, Veterans Secretary Doug Collins, and Homeland Security Director Christie Noem have been confirmed by the Senate as Cabinet or Cabinet-level appointments.
Vice President JD Vance told Breitbart News in an exclusive interview at the White House Westwing office on Tuesday, it appears that all the rest of Trump's cabinet will be confirmed. Thune reiterates feelings from Vance and now about crushing Senate Democrats in the course of committee rules, saying that all the remaining choices in Trump's cabinet appear to have votes to be confirmed He said that. To get them all through.
“Most of the time, we can crush the Democratic resistance and continue to crush it until the president's cabinet is in place. As we saw this week, as you pointed out, there are some markups. This week, Tulsi Gabbard was reported by the Senate Intelligence Email Committee and outside the committee where the Senate Finance Committee reported the RFK, Thune said: “Both of these were on floor votes early next week. It's set because they lie down for a day and then I have to submit a coagulation, so Democrats have to use 30 hours, so they obviously are on time with both of them I'm not going to go back but I feel good about where we are. It was obviously not easy. We went through the committee and had a lot of conversations until the end. We were all on board and in the same direction We are trying to make sure we are rowing, but they were eventually reported out of two committees, and are now available for consideration on the floor. I'm looking forward to it.”
Thune is working to ensure that all of Trump's cabinet picks are confirmed by voters in November, with a majority of Senate Republicans, who have a 53-seat majority after the 2024 election. Because they believe they have given them a “decisive duty.”
“The president has given him a decisive mission to the people of America,” Tune said. “It's important to respect that delegation by checking candidates as quickly as possible. It wasn't easy. Some of these things have to be crushed by you. But he and he to do what the team has committed to enforce border laws and working to expel violent criminals from the country or to thrive America again by rationalizing bureaucratic machines. You need to make sure they have the tools and support they need to do and remove the many costly Biden regulations, or take the control of energy as well as energy security. It also restores America's energy domination. They are the ones that these people he is introducing are focused on. As you pointed out, all of them have a unique set of qualifications. And I really deserve what I think, the president and his vision, and what he wants to do for the country. I think the voters have made that very clear. They put his team on him. We're moving as quickly as possible to make sure it happens, he can continue his agenda.”
Interestingly, some checks are easier than others, and while they are not all done yet, all the rest seem to promise success, Two important integrated characteristics of all of the two are excellent communicators and that they are their change agents. Various departments and institutions. Thune said the process shows just how unique this moment is for the US government.
“In this way that reflects the president's transformational qualities, it's a different face to the government, and I think that's clear to the people he's nominating,” Thune said. “Some of them come in and these aren't just regular candidates and don't suit Washington's stereotypes like those who nominate for these positions. But when they go round and have a meeting, they're They are clear and very convincing people who have a vision for the institutions and departments they want to lead. One of the things I campaigned when I ran for this job was to the committee and chairperson. It's about empowering and seeing the outcomes now. Our Chairman has done a great job through the confirmation process that highlights the qualities and traits of these candidates that will really be effective in these positions. , candidates did a great job of debating why they are the right people for their job. Yes – it's a different look. This is a different kind of mood and different styles in this country. I think it reflects President Trump's leadership, bringing the leadership of the company. I think his pick reflects that, and as I said, we'll make them right. I will do everything I can to help you.”
Democrats, despite being in the US Senate minority, have fought back throughout the process, resisting confirmation of almost every candidate on almost every turn. Thune maintained the Senate overnight and weekends to plow Democrats opposition. Asked for his response to what Democrats did in the confirmation hearing, they said he and Senate Republicans “average business” by burning the clock like they did, and Democrats He said it was passing.
“Part of that is that you threaten to stay here and you need to know them to keep it here that means it,” Thune said. “I think we've demonstrated that, so for a while, or especially around the weekend when they want to get out of here, they're asking our demands about how we handle them. I think we have demonstrated that we will be recognized by the candidate. But they are trying to do it all night tonight, they tell us. They're here all night to protest Las Vault. We're going to stay at, but we're going to let them do that so that the Russ is vocal over the finish line. They want to put the speakers down on the floor all night, but that's what If you want to do it, it's their privilege, but in the end we'll go down and we'll end up seeing these people. It really just brings together our people. We have votes and if the votes are together, we try to accomplish this if Democrats can't stand stalling and delaying and trying to protest. But they It exploded a bit – I was just finished with the Senate Commerce Committee and the nomination of Howard Lutnick – and he had a great confirmation hearing so he should have left unanimously, but Democrats now It's alleviating the tantrums. They've all assured him except John Fetterman about the president and other things happening on his agenda, so you're seeing more of it. The same thing It was true last night in Pam Bondy. Her vote was party-affiliated with the exception of Fetterman. So, Democrats are in lockdown and are trying to use tools at their disposal to drag this out. But at the end of the day they have to understand that we mean business. I think they will. So we just smash them down. I think you've done it. In the end, you have to convince them that you're serious.”
Surprisingly, as Democrats – they don't vote and are in the minority so they hold back and lose all of these epic battles that Trump and Republicans win. said victory was sweeter and the end of it is showing the world that the Democrats are a whimsical party with no clear purpose or mission.
“Yeah, they still don't seem to understand how far they are from the stages of their lives with the American people,” Thune said. “They have this, they're complaining, they just don't resonate. These protests and tantrums, like I said, they keep us here tonight When it comes to protesting the Lass fight as they are trying to, the Americans aren't responding to it. They think they're now a party with no identity. They still denies the election. They don't understand that they are in a state of being. I think that's a problem for them. The only thing they can do is what they're doing now. But in the end, it's not the problem. , I think it's even more persuasive for the American people when President Trump finally wins his people. To drag it out is nothing more than emphasizing his ability to win the debate. , and they're sliding further in trying to understand what their message is. I think they're a party with no cause and identity right now. They're trying to understand that, and they're trying to understand it. It appears that they have decided the best way they can do: drag some of these candidates to the floor or fight on the committee. But in the end they are going to win, and they know that I am.
