You can't filibuster cabinet picks or federal judges, meaning the Dems cannot stop Trump appointees, either. The Republicans have 53 senate seats so they can pass whoever they want.
The GOP needs every single person on their side to pass the nominations... Which rarely happen.
Why aren't the dems working whatever GOPers they can to say no? Or is that something only the GOP is allowed to do? Get Dems to defect?
False, Hegseth is the closest to losing confirmation when 3 GOP voted no, but VP tiebreaker confirmed him anyways.
Hegseth, Vought, Gabbard, Kennedy, and Lutnick all recieved 0 dem votes and passed.
Only 3 Republicans have voted against any confirmation, and Mitch McConnell is the only republican to vote against more than one: he voted against 3.
Fuck Mitch McConnell trying to leave a legacy when he was instrumental in creating this fucking mess
Same with Pence, yeah.
