‘OH BY THE WAY…’
Situational awareness: the President on Monday announced he intends to keep Acting Secretary Keith Sonderling as the permanent Labor Secretary, if the Senate confirms him.
I’ll have more next week, but I would flag that I’m not wholly certain that Sonderling gets confirmed by the Senate in this Congress. On a party-line vote, his chances are good, but the President also got into a screaming match last week with the Senate HELP Committee chairman he worked to primary out of a job.
HELP is a necessary stop for Sonderling’s nomination. Other nominations haven’t exactly moved with urgency as the President’s relationship has frayed with Republican senators.
Seems relevant.
