Oh the same FBI who looked the other way on a man who stole classified documents and let him waltz around free to run a presidential campaign right back into the White House, that FBI? Yeah I’m sure they’re going to do a bang up job on weeding out the threats to national security.

Trump wouldn’t pass a background check and he’s president.. what even is morality & ethics??

They. Will. Be. Confirmed. Just like the last time these Mafia bros were.

That happens when they appoint dubious characters… at the end they will confirm them, regardless of what they find

They lack ethics and many of them including Trump himself couldn’t even pass a background check. He’ll find away to ignore the law so he can appoint a rogues gallery of compliant idiots and grifters to senior positions.

And who is going to control those things after January 20?

Morality and ethics in DC? That’s hilarious…..

Trumps nominees could literally go live on national television and state that they are paid spies for Russia, give out their banking documents proving that fact and they’d still have a decent chance of getting confirmed.

That’s why he’ll do recess appointments, c’mon

Hey, maybe instead of slowing them down, you can just stop them entirely?

Handing over the government to criminals, embezzlers and foreign agents isn’t impossible but it does take more paperwork.

Any senators who object to Trump choices will have their dog shot and house burned down . . MAGA violence will increase after pardons

As a convicted felon, how is trump able to get top security clearances? If he can get one, then how can others with lesser issues be denied anything? His presidency is going to really shake up a lot of laws and honestly, for convicted felons, they should start challenging shit and using trump as a reference…that’ll start pissing off folks

FBI seems to be an effective organization until it’s time to investigate anyone associated with government. Might need an independent organization devoted to investigating and prosecuting government and judicial officials. A sort of internal affairs of government. They could also handle background checks.

Never have they been more needed with the insane clown posse nominees being voted on.

Security checks are a necessary slow down in proceedings, the problem is anyone that fails them who absolutely should not be given the role will be given an exemption by the compromised corrupt orange moron in charge.

Here come the “Temporary Appointments”. He already found and exploited the loophole.

Slow down? Yes.
Stop? Probably not.

If there’s no enforcement mechanism, these rules are quite useless because only those desiring to uphold the integrity of their office and the agency/position will follow them. Trump only follows the law accidentally or because one of his lackies was responsible.
As a tangent, I recall republicans stonewalling Obama’s picks to the extent that the administration ended up calling the candidates czars as a branding thing because they were never confirmed. It’s a curiosity that I do not have to find out how much damage Trump’s unconfirmed agency & departments can still unleash despite being (potentially) unconfirmed due to failing ethics or background checks.
The circus is running the country for another four years, but this time they have a manual to burn it all down.
