Here’s a gift link to the underlying story from February 12:

Further stretching the national security leadership, Matthew Blue - the chief of the Justice Department's counterterrorism section - is an Air Force veteran who has been serving in the D.C.

If Mullin’s nomination hits turbulence, Trump can just remind senators that he can keep on Noem until her successor is confirmed. No senator wants that.
Kristi: from Noem to Nemo
"I respect Bernie Sanders because he's an open socialist, and you know that he's a communist so you know what you're getting. Rand Paul's a freaking snake. And I understand completely why his neighbor did what he did. And I told him that to his face."
