Trump is reportedly \u200bpressuring Republican senators to agree to recess appointments, a move \u200bthat deviates from traditional norms and could expedite the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/hollywood-celebs-rage-in-defeat-after-barrett-confirmation-revolting-disgraceful-unconscionable\/\" title=\"Hollywood Celebs Rage in Defeat After Barrett Confirmation: &#039;Revolting. Disgraceful. Unconscionable&#039;\">confirmation process<\/a> for his appointees. CNN commentators express concern that this approach \u2062undermines the established confirmation procedures that allow the\u200d Senate to act as a check on presidential\u2063 appointments. The commentary suggests that if Trump successfully avoids normal confirmation protocols, it would represent a significant shift in the political \u200clandscape, particularly since such recess appointments have been largely avoided by previous administrations \u200din recent history. The\u2062 piece highlights the implications \u200cof Trump&#8217;s actions on\u200c the balance of power and\u2064 the Senate&#8217;s role in confirming nominees.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Liberal Media Scream: How dare Trump make demands on Senate, CNN whines<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1879291\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>This week&rsquo;s Liberal Media Scream <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/cnn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">features CNN<\/a> struggling to find new ways to attack President-elect <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>This time, it&rsquo;s Trump&rsquo;s pressure on the Senate to OK his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3226705\/trump-name-marco-rubio-secretary-of-state\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Cabinet picks<\/a>, which are coming fast and furious, without the <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">normal confirmation steps<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>At CNN, they said it&rsquo;s just Trump &ldquo;again bucking norms.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mrctv.org\/videos\/113362\/113362-480p.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n<p><strong>From Sunday&rsquo;s CNN:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ALAYNA TREENE:<\/strong> <em>[President-elect Donald Trump]  said, quote: &ldquo;Republican senators seeking the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/maga-world-jolts-senate-gop-leader-race-by-rallying-around-rick-scott-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"MAGA world jolts Senate GOP leader race by rallying around Rick Scott - Washington Examiner\">coveted leadership position<\/a> in the United States Senate must agree to recess appointments in the Senate, without which, we will not be able to get people confirmed in a timely manner.&rdquo;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The post goes on to describe other things. But I want to explain why this is so important. Essentially, Donald Trump is calling for the shattering of norms. Now what this means, a recess appointment, I know this sounds like we&rsquo;re getting in the weeds a bit with the Hill lingo. But recesses are normally avoided in Congress. Normally, when they actually go on break, they do something called a pro forma session. Part of that is because if you go to a recess, you actually have to have a vote in the House and the Senate, and Democrats, in this case, giving Republicans control of the Senate come next year, would be able to filibuster.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>But essentially, to get down to it, to really boil down to what this would mean, is that Donald Trump is trying to find a way and use whoever the next Senate leader &mdash; Republican leader &mdash; is to try and avoid the confirmation process for his top Cabinet officials. And I remind you, a lot of times when different presidential candidates or people are looking to make these hires and to appoint different people to these different Cabinet roles, a key thing that is always at the top of their minds is whether or not this person can get confirmed in the Senate, if they have a controversial background, if they are more conservative, in this case, if they were Democrats, they&rsquo;d be maybe too liberal. But really, the Senate is kind of the last line of defense of who the president could put into office with him.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>And so this would be a huge change. And I will also argue that really this process that Congress has now about avoiding recess appointments in their entirety started back with George W. Bush and has continued since then under the different presidents with Obama and Trump and now Biden. And so, this again would be a huge break from the norms that we currently have.
