“Wasn’t/isn’t there a woman next in line after RR?”
Doesn’t matter. President Trump is making recess appointments. He can pick anyone he wants to run the show.
Right. But typically the next in line moves on as “acting” until the position is filled permanently. (And that is what happened.) The next in line was a woman but I found out today she went to the private sector a while ago - Walmart, I guess.
