Description

One of the largest groups of President Trump’s nominees was just confirmed in the U.S. Senate. The group includes 48 individuals who would hold significant jobs in the military, national security and overseas. The move was possible only because Republicans changed the rules of the Senate to get more nominees through, more quickly. Congressional correspondent Lisa Desjardins reports.
