Chuck DarwinThe new Senate Majority Leader says he wants to get President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet through the confirmation process as quickly as possible but spent a good part of Sunday cautioning there is “a process” that must be followed first. U.S. Sen. <a href="https://c.im/tags/John" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#John</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Thune" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Thune</a>, in the wake of a deadly New Year’s Day attack in New Orleans, said that the incident was a good example of why “the Senate must get President Trump’s national security team in place as quickly as possible.” On Friday, when the U.S. Congress began its 119th session, the Majority Leader said the upper chamber would work swiftly to “ensure President Trump has his team in place to secure our border, protect our homeland, and provide for our nation’s defense.” But by Sunday the South Dakota Republican was tapping the brakes as he made the talk show rounds, explaining that Trump’s top picks are going to have some “hard questions” to answer before they are confirmed. “The Senate has a role: advise and consent. And we intend — we have a lot of our senators who take that role very seriously. And so we will make sure that these nominees have a process, a fair process, in which they have an opportunity to make their cases not only to the members of the committee and ultimately to the full Senate but also to the American people,” he told NBC.Whether all of the 47th president’s picks make it past muster is an open question, Thune acknowledged, saying that he doesn’t have “clarity” on how the votes will play out. However, he’s inclined to provide the chief executive due consideration when it comes to deciding who serves in his administration, he said. Republicans only have a three vote margin to work with, so whether any nominee makes it through “is going to be up to each individual senator and how they decide to vote,” the Majority Leader said. “I suspect a lot of them will get through and we’ll see about all of them. Remains to be seen, but I think that’s why we have the process, and we will adhere to that process and give all of these nominees an opportunity to make their case,” he told CBS.<a href="https://www.bostonherald.com/2025/01/05/senate-majority-leader-warns-no-clarity-on-trump-cabinet-picks-as-hearings-due-to-begin/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.bostonherald.com/2025/01/05/senate-majority-leader-warns-no-clarity-on-trump-cabinet-picks-as-hearings-due-to-begin/</a>

David AugustIt sounds like Thune is open to recess appointments but not set on them yet. <a href="https://www.argusleader.com/story/news/politics/elections/2024/11/13/south-dakota-senator-john-thune-says-recess-appointments-still-an-option-for-trump-cabinet/76265376007/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.argusleader.com/story/news/politics/elections/2024/11/13/south-dakota-senator-john-thune-says-recess-appointments-still-an-option-for-trump-cabinet/76265376007/</a> We can, by contacting our Senators and Representatives demand the full advising and consenting of appointments (and yes, Representatives can add pressure to the Senate to not do recess appointments).
