Folks, time to give credit where credit is due.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune has overseen the confirmation of the more controversial Trump Cabinet nominees, including:
- Pete Hegseth (SecDef)
- Tulsi Gabbard (DNI)
- Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (HHS)
There were times where GOP senators had to be reeled back into supporting these candidates, and Thune had been running the procedural game so these conversations could take place.
Confirming presidential appointees is only the beginning, but Thune is doing a good job here.
And of course, all of the RELIABLE Republican senators in the Senate who vote for Trump's nominees without relentless convincing are doing an amazing job as well.
Now we move on to Trump's legislative agenda, such as tax cuts, budget cuts and funding for mass deportations.
