Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso, the second-ranking Republican in the Senate, on Wednesday called Democrat efforts to hold up Trumps Cabinet picks

Sen. Marco Rubio outlined the importance of oil, gas and coal in his confirmation hearing for secretary of State.

Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso, the No. 2-ranking Republican in the Senate, said on “Face the Nation” Sunday that he backs all of Trump’s cabinet picks.

President-elect Donald Trump's cabinet picks face questions this week on Capitol Hill as they seek to assume positions in the incoming administration.

Marco Rubio, R-Fla ... with just about all of them I support every one of these nominees," said Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., over the weekend ahead of the nomination process.

The tactics are reminiscent of the ones taken the first time Trump entered the White House. At the time, Democrats homed in on eight nominees they would delay, with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) warning against a “rushed” process.

Defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth narrowly earned enough Republican support to clear a key Senate hurdle and is now all but assured confirmation.

President Trump said he is open to using recess appointments to get his Cabinet appointees confirmed if delays keep emerging in the Senate.

In President Donald Trump’s first television interview in the Oval Office since returning to the White House, he told Fox News he “might have to” cut funding for sanctuary cities, rebuffed concerns over TikTok and criticized Biden’s pardons.

Rubio lost to Trump in 2016 but he’s living his best life as Secretary of State, approved unanimously by his Senate colleagues.
