Some Republicans are trying to slow the rush to appoint President-elect Donald Trump’s Cabinet picks — particularly “Fox & Friends Weekend” host Pete Hegseth. Last week, Trump nominated Hegseth to serve as his Secretary of Defense.
While Ernst urges proper vetting, CNN reported last week that Trump’s transition team isn’t using the FBI to do background checks on the appointees, saying they believe that would take too long. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) called Hegseth a “good guy,” noting, “I know him well.”
“Did you ever know about the past sexual assault accusation?” Raw Story asked.
“Come on now,” Tuberville complained. “Come on now.”
Perfect summary of the vetting process.
Tubby is a fucking embarrassment. Fucker should have stayed on the football field.
This is Brett Kavanaugh, Jared Kushner, and all the other shitheads from Trumps 2016 presidency all over again. Everyone’s going to be pissed about it but Republicans will toe the party line unfortunately.
