Summary
Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI) announced he will block all of Trump’s State Department nominees until USAID is reinstated.
His move comes after Elon Musk took control of USAID, placed senior staff on leave, and seized classified information.
Schatz condemned the administration’s “authoritarian behavior” and vowed to delay confirmations until USAID operates normally.
His blockade could significantly slow Trump’s ability to fill key diplomatic positions, forcing Senate Republicans to spend more time pushing nominations through.
Assuming the dubvee is for WV…it’s real shitty here.
It is and…it is. It’s very much “I have no voice, and I must scream”. But I’m stuck here trying to survive and make the best of it.
It’s my little therapeutic pillow to yell into as well. Lol
