Episode 7117
About the Episode
More than 75 Nobel laureates are urging Trump to ditch RFK Jr. as his choice for HHS Secretary. As Trump's picks get more pushback, his team has signaled that they are willing to go it alone and bypass the vetting process. Two former Counsels to the Senate Judiciary Committee -- Gregg Nunziata and Noah Bookbinder -- explain why the Senate confirmation process and FBI checks are essential.
