The Senate’s unanimous 99-0 confirmation of Marco Rubio as secretary of state was a rare moment of unity and bi-partisanship. For many Americans, it gave us hope that President Donald Trump’s Cabinet and Senate confirmation appointments would receive a fair and balanced process. 

Sadly, it appears that this is not going to happen. The real battle over Trump receiving the Cabinet and other appointment confirmations he deserves is just beginning. Democrats, led by obstructionists like Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut, are already maneuvering to delay votes on other crucial appointments. This obstruction is a direct attempt to weaken the administration and stall progress.

A doctor who exposed secret child transgender procedures at the nation’s largest children’s hospital hopes President Donald Trump will stop the Department of Justice (DOJ) from taking him to trial in February.

ICE Arrest

The Trump administration incredibly expanded Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) ability to quickly deport illegal immigrants from the U.S. on Tuesday, removing yet another enforcement hurdle.

“Expedited removal” is a policy that allows federal immigration officials within 100 miles of an international land border to remove illegal migrants via a streamlined process that bypasses the backlogged immigration court system. Per a notice posted by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), ICE agents now have the ability to implement expedited removal anywhere in the country, removing illegal migrants’ ability to slow-walk their removal by contesting their deportation order in court.
