Senator Thune criticizes Democrats for obstructing President Trump's nominations, claiming it sets a harmful precedent.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) criticized Democrats for what he termed a "historic level of obstruction" regarding President Trump's nominations. Speaking on the Senate floor, he noted that 107 civilian nominees have been confirmed, nearly doubling the confirmation pace of Trump's first term, despite ongoing delays from the opposition.
Thune highlighted that Trump is the only president without any civilian nominees confirmed by unanimous consent at this stage, contrasting this with President Biden, who had 44 confirmations. He urged Democrats to allow some nominees to pass by unanimous consent to avoid prolonged Senate sessions and potentially set a precarious precedent.
