Stefanik offered UN Ambassador.

Just looked it up: If there's a vacancy in a congressional seat in New York, the governor has to call a special election for between 70 and 80 days of the vacancy. It's not appointed.

Yeah we talked about that when Santos was finding out.

Tom Homan - Border Czar

I am embarrass to admit that I have never heard of him.

Wow. According to Trump, to be Senate leader you have to agree in advance to forfeit the Advise and Consent role prescribed by the Constitution.

No, he wants his people and he wants them as quickly as possible. That's why most people being vetted are asked if they will take an "acting" appointment.

Look, Trump is Trump. He can pull some boners. But he also can be taught. I think he is really honing in on his first 100 days and wants to make hay.

I've sensed some positive signs that he is acting more maturely this time around.

[Copper]

Yes, he could be an adult in just a few short months,

That’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. He ran for NY governor not long ago. Well, probably a while now.

That's very interesting...

Vivek had some personal perspective on the Springfield, OH immigrant issues because he lives right around there.

Hope I'm proven wrong, but that's his first bad pick.
