Washington -D -Hawaii’s Senator Brian Shaizzz of D -Hawaii suppresses his hope to set up a “Blanket Hold” as a candidate of President Donald Trump on Monday and quickly set up personnel in major positions. He said.
Shales, who are attending the diplomatic committee, stated that his movement was protesting that Trump’s billionaire Eron Musk has declared that he and Trump will close the US International Development Organization. 。
“Demolition USAID is illegal and reduces safety. USAID is created by Federal Law and provided funds. Donald Trump and Illon Mask want to do it in a pen stroke. She cannot pass the law, “said Shuts.
“I plan to put a blanket hold for all candidates of the Trump administration’s State Department, as long as this brave authority reversed and the USAID does not work again,” continued. “This is a magnificent proportion self -harm act that brings dangerous results around the world.”
“Hold” is essentially a threat to prevent prompt votes for candidates in the Senate. Jump over the hoop to a Republican member, burn the floor time, and forcibly check the candidates. Candidates are all when there are many lower -level candidates that may be tracked quickly on the floor for voting.
Candidates must check the majority in the Senate. The Republican members have 53 Senator, so Democrats cannot give up on Trump’s pick. However, they can drag the process and impair other candidates or bills that GOP leaders spend time.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he was nominated as a USAID agent on Monday. The Senate unanimously voted to confirm Rubio as the Secretary of State, but there are many high -ranking positions that require the approval of the Senate.
Democratic members gathered on Monday afternoon, spoke outside the Uside’s Washington Headquarters, blasting “illegal” closure, and accusing Trump and Musk to avoid parliament.
“We use all the power that we can use freely in the U.S. Senate. My colleagues will do the same at home. This is a constitutional crisis we are today,” said D-Connnnnnnnnnn Senator CHRIS MURPHY said. “Let’s not punch about why this is happening. Iron Musk has earned billions of dollars since China, and China is supporting this action today. There is no doubt that the billionaire class, which is trying to take over our government, is doing it based on self -interest. “
Republicans have widely held candidates to protest President Joe Biden’s policy over the past four years.
In 2023, R-ALA Senator Tommy Tubarville, a member of the Defense Pentagon in 2023, has protested for a breakthrough policy of the Defense Pentagon, reducing more than 400 military promotion.
R-MO. Senator Josh Hawley in 2021 protested the Brunket Hold, a private candidate in the Pentagon and Pentagon, to handle the withdrawal of the Biden administration from Afghanistan.
In the wake of Trump last year, the Senate Republican member group retained a candidate for Biden, including a judicial candidate.
The Trump administration has not yet officially submitted a number of candidates of empty ambassadors who need to confirm the Senate and the Candidates of the Secretary. However, some important positions in the State Department are already on a pipeline.
Among them is the United Nations US ambassador Elise Stefanik, just below Rubio candidates: Christopher Randau, Christopher Landau, Michael Ligas.・ Ligas, Adam Baler, a special mission for human problems.
Veteran career foreigners or civil servants are currently leadership on behalf of these positions, but cannot act with the same authority as the president tapped.
