Congratulations Tulsi

Tulsi Gabbard, just confirmed as Director of National Intelligence, has the qualifications of having been abused by the system and driven out of the Democratic Party for ideological reasons. In this, she is like the President himself. I trust that her personal experience of being subjected to the system will be a strong driving force in reform.

Good hunting.

Next up, RFK! Then Patel. Seems like only McConnell is holding out now.

RFK is up and sworn in, early afternoon 13 Feb.

Kash Patel has passed out of committee, morning 13 Feb, with a cloture vote due. Durbin's hysteria at the committee vote's opening would have been humorous were his lies and cherry-picked whines not so irritating.

Next up from my perspective is Linda McMahon for SecEd. I think she'll be a tougher sell for the weak-kneed Republicans on the committee (hearing in progress afternoon 13 Feb), what with Trump's wish to eliminate DoEd altogether and McMahon's willingness to support that from within.
