What are recess appointments? And with Republicans controlling the Senate, will President-elect Trump’s nominees face any hurdles in their confirmation process? In an excerpt from a new episode of the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss Trump’s ongoing nominations of cabinet members and other high-profile positions. Despite Republicans controlling the Senate, Trump has called on candidates vying to replace Republican leader Mitch McConnell to permit his nominees to take office without confirmation votes using the recess appointments power. In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss: – How Trump’s return to the White House will likely mark the end of his criminal prosecutions, with the federal election interference case and sentencing in Manhattan already facing new delays;  – The expected reinstatement of Trump’s “Schedule F” executive order, which would reclassify many federal staff members as at-will employees; and – The charges filed by the Department of Justice against an Iranian man for allegedly plotting to assassinate Trump.

This was so good I listened twice. Good points about Trump voters being angry about political correctness, the "right" pronouns and the tendency among liberals to dismiss anyone who doesnt agree. Also a good point about anger over illegal immigration.

why do you discount misogyny and racism in the rejection of Harris? We know they both run strong in the USA.

I'm 81, so I was in my 30s during the Reagan administration. I'm a solid Democrat, and I didn't like him. I believe he was too regressive. One thing I can't forgive him for is cutting funding for mental health care.

1) There's bipartisanship on this because they all know there's literally nothing behind the curtain here. When they start talking about it, you should start digging into things they're NOT talking about, starting with financial corruption. 2) The "controversy" is absurdly US-centric. There's a potential 7.5 billion people on this world who could be watching the skies who care nothing about what the American people or government know or think. In other words, we've not been visited by aliens.

My understanding is that pardons in Georgia are delegated to a panel, and are not administered until after the defendant serves his or her full term and five years afterward abides by a series of conditions required by the governing statute. Please clarify.

This is beyond frightening. The discussion is basically that there's no control over this, and we have no idea what AI and ChatGPT will do to freedom and even our existence. That governments don't know how to regulate it. Rogue actors and autocratic governments can use this now and certainly as it grows/learns in the future to attack what democracy stands for. AI will be used in weapon systems. We've seen this movie. No one makes this comparison, but The Terminator was exactly this. Exactly. AI without controls.
