Yesterday we had Jefferson Beauregard Sessions (yes, that's his real full name), and General Ripper - oops I mean - General Flynn (ret.).

A bunch more were scheduled for today, but DeVos, Pompeo, and Puzder were postponed because they haven't yet disclosed all the information required and have additional conflicts of interest checks that haven't cleared.

Not sure if you guys saw it, but Chuck Schumer just changed the names and dates on Mitch McConnell's obstructive letter from 2009 that threw up a bunch of new procedural hurdles for Obama's nominees to clear, and sent it back to him. ha. "Okay we'll just do to you what you did to us for 8 years."

McConnell didn't respond. Of course his wife, Elaine Chao, heir to multi-billion dollar sketchy Chinese shipping company has been nominated for Transportation secretary.
 
Trump is also supposedly planning to nominate RFK Jr., a Democrat (nominally...) and vaccination skeptic, to an anti-vaccination panel... god knows what they are planning to do.

Some people might say "oh look, Trump is willing to work with Democrats! no one can criticize this one!" but it's more like he's picking the WORST people from both sides of the aisle to build his administration. like an all-star team of degenerates and flunkies that wouldn't have been nominated for ANYTHING prior to this foul year.

Same thing with Secretary of Energy. Rick Perry, who as a candidate wanted to shut down the Department of Energy.
