On Tuesday President Trump sounded the alarm on Senate Democrats’ plan to “improperly stall and delay the confirmation process” of many of his Cabinet nominees.

The Senate confirmation hearings are set to begin next week.

President Trump did not go into detail about the Democrats’ plan to delay and possibly derail his Cabinet nominees.

However, given what the Senate Democrats did to Bret Kavanaugh during his Supreme Court confirmation hearing in 2018, anything is possible.

“We just won a Historic Landslide and Mandate from the American People, but Senate Democrats are organizing to improperly stall and delay the confirmation process of many of our Great Nominees. They will try all sorts of tricks starting very soon. Republicans must not allow them to do that. We have a Country to run, and many big problems to solve, mostly created by Democrats. REPUBLICANS, BE SMART AND TOUGH!!!” Trump said in a post on X on Tuesday.

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 31, 2024

Meanwhile, Team Trump has ordered all Cabinet nominees to stop posting on social media ahead of the senate confirmation hearings.

According to a memo obtained by The New York Post, Trump’s incoming Chief of Staff Susan Wiles ordered the president-elect’s Cabinet picks refrain from posting on social media without approval from counsel.

Considering the J6ers were theoretically attempting to stall and delay the certification of the election, wouldn’t this also be insurrection?

...refrain from posting on social media without approval from counsel.

Seems prudent given the MSM's skill at twisting almost everything a political target happens to utter.

The MSM will also no doubt sidestep the fact comments are to be approved by counsel rather than Trump.

The rodents’ “secret” plan A) is not a secret and B) won’t work - I don’t have to read it. Trump is the President of The World and will crush whatever the rodents try.

Trump, needs to do what Trump does best. He needs to reach out to the public and voters and get them to contact their elected officials in the Senate and demand confirmation. Trump is skilled at using the Bully Pulpit. He needs to use it with every media outlet he can. He needs to go on all the conservative talk shows, Joe Rogan podcast, Fox News. He even needs to reach out to some of the visual media like CNN, MSNBC, etc. Perhaps, he can even reach out to PBS to see if they will interview him on the confirmation process and bring with him, his DOGE leaders to get a first hand and up close look at how PBS reports the news.

Trump is a master at “reality TV” and selling his brand to the public when given a fair opportunity. This can be an opportunity for Trump to do his thing. It can also be an opportunity for the media to see whether they intend to cut their own throats and make an enemy or treat the President Elect with respect and allow him to make his points.

IIRC, the President has the authority to declare RIFs (Reductions in Force), affecting specific gov’t departments and agencies. They can be tailored to get people who need to be got.

The Democrats stalled George W. Bush's nominees for eight months, and then 9/11 happened.

Trump should appoint each and every nominee as “czar” of their respective agency. Then, go about business as usual, and let the confirmation process take as long as it needs.
Hasn’t John F’ing Kerry been a czar for 4 years now?
Czar of State
Czar of Labor
Czar of Law
etc.

The President IS the executive branch. He can sign all orders himself and does not need a “secretary” of anything to run the federal government. Anyone who disobeys his orders can immediately be fired ! (and should be!)

If the Senate wants to stall his appointments, they will not like what the BIG DOG himself will order done.

"Trump Sounds the Alarm on Senate Democrats’ Secret Plan to Sabotage and Delay Cabinet Confirmation Process"

Trump Sounds the Alarm on Senate Democrats’ and RINOs' Secret Plan to Sabotage and Delay Cabinet Confirmation Process...

Definitely, a 2017 redux!

Only a drunken fool would think that the feckless GOP has changed its spots...
Once again, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory...
