Democrats were widely appalled by Donald Trump’s Cabinet picks, whom they described as dangerous and “historically unqualified.” Now even a few of Trump’s Republican congressional allies are “stunned and disgusted” over his second-term Cabinet picks,

Republican senators are scrambling to get President Donald Trump’s cabinet appointees confirmed, promising to vote through the weekend if necessary.

Trump’s pick to lead the Central Intelligence Agency is John Ratcliffe, who formerly served as Director of National Intelligence in Trump’s first term. His confirmation hearing took place last week, during which he repeatedly said he would not hire or fire employees based on their political views.

But moving those nominees across the Senate floor will be no easy feat. It took two months to confirm the 15 department heads who made up President Joe Biden’s Cabinet. In 2017, Trump did not have his Cabinet in place until April 27, or three months after his inauguration.

The Alaska Republican’s decision Thursday comes ahead of a crucial test vote to advance Hegseth’s nomination toward confirmation.

Pete Hegseth, Doug Burgum and Doug Collins are among the nominees set to appear before senators beginning Tuesday.

The Senate has confirmed Marco Rubio as secretary of state, giving President Donald Trump the first member of his Cabinet.

Wealthy hedge fund executive Scott Bessent – whose confirmation hearing for treasury secretary is slated for Thursday – has hundreds of millions of dollars in assets and owns property from North Dakota to the Bahamas.

Pete Hegseth, Marco Rubio, Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem will all sit at witness tables in Senate confirmation hearings this week.

One by one, President-elect Donald Trump's hoped-for Cabinet is falling into place, even for his more controversial choices.
