President-elect Donald Trump is sending a message to the senators seeking the position of Senate Majority Leader in the new Congress. He wants them to agree to “Recess Appointments (in the Senate!)” in order to get people he appoints to various posts started in their position while waiting to officially be confirmed.
He sent out the strong recommendation Sunday afternoon on X, formerly Twitter, which his new friend and ally Elon Musk now owns.
Trump tweeted:
“Any Republican Senator seeking the coveted LEADERSHIP position 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. Sometimes the votes can take two years, or more. This is what they did four years ago, and we cannot let it happen again. We need positions filled IMMEDIATELY! Additionally, no Judges should be approved during this period of time because the Democrats are looking to ram through their Judges as the Republicans fight over Leadership. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THANK YOU!”
Elon Musk was quick to tweet back that “This is essential. There is no other way.”
