Senators took down one Trump Cabinet pick. But the fight over their authority is just beginning. - The Boston Globe

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

69% : Over the weekend, Trump filled out the rest of his Cabinet selections.
55% : Those picks fall outside the Republican mainstream and are a notable departure from when Trump entered the White House the first time and mostly chose from the ranks of Republican officials well-respected across Washington.
48% : Trump has been making his Cabinet announcements at a rapid clip, often over social media, and frequently catching GOP senators off guard.
37% : Within hours, Trump had moved on, announcing on social media that he had selected another loyalist, former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, to run the Justice Department.
37% : Trump has also demanded that Senate Republicans agree to allow him to make recess appointments, a process whereby the Senate would adjourn so that Trump could use a constitutional power to make appointments while the chamber is in recess.
