Except as to the rule of appointment, the United States have an indefinite discretion to make requisitions for men and money; but they have no authority to raise either by regulations extending to the individual citizens of America.

At which point will Americans realize that creating an unaccountable institution that is able to pass its liability on to tax-payers is immoral and attracts sociopaths?
Yes, this was disappointing to see.

I mean, is there anything really left to say about Rand? He desperately wants the approval of the Establishment. The problem for him is that he will never get it. In a couple of decades he will be lucky to be a footnote in history.
Oh please... No need for dramatics. We're talking about which rotating head gets to fill a seat - Rand is one of the few actively trying to restrain the power of the seat itself, not the current occupant.
If, by some miracle, Rand were to win the GOP nomination and become President, I'm sure he'd expect the opposition to approve his appointments, despite their disagreements with the policy.

If this was 2011 or 2012, then this statement would be sufficient. However, he has been in office for TEN years and has had zero significant effect on any public policy.
When has logrolling ever worked in favor of liberty? Ron Paul has a legacy that will last long after his passing. Rand tried to split the baby of liberty and Establishment politics and has failed miserably at both. Subsequently he will have no legacy.

I think you could give bootyjudge a down vote for about any federal position as just unqualified he was in over his head as mayor .

Yes, he would be foolish. But at least he could make the consistently congruent argument that, "I confirmed all sorts of people who I disagreed with politically, because the role of Senate consent is not to overturn the direction of the executive, but to confirm unless the nominee is manifestly lacking in character and competence to the the job."

What are Buttgigeig's qualifications. I thought he was just a small town mayor?
If you weren't bitching about every awful Trump pick in the past four years then you don't have legitimacy to bitch now. And I really don't care if you rebutt with some "TDS" bvllshyt response. Most of the people who voted against Bootyjudge would have voted for his equivalent if Trump had made the appointment. And I didn't hear your "Rand was working for the establishment" BS when Rand derailed the Trump impeachment.

This would be like trump putting wayne lapierre in charge of health and human services .

Right? I mean, let's not forget that Trump put a brain surgeon in charge of Housing and Urban Development because of his skin color. No one questioned Carson's intellect, but it's not like the skills are transferable. In truth, you don't need many qualifications to serve as a political figurehead for a bureaucracy.
ETA: And let's not forget the last transportation secretary was Mrs. Mitch McConnell!

It would have been a lose/lose for him. Go against the "science" and lose his credibility in the scientific community, or go with it and become part of whatever happened. And all sides of this have been all over the map. Personally I think COVID is real but the lockdowns were worse then the cure and the vaccine is not trustworthy. I would have loved to seen Carson push natural remedies. (Melatonin for example. Sunlight producing vitamin D for another). Based on his religious upbringing he knows about what really leads to good health. He could have called Fauci out for lying about masks and getting the stats wrong. But then he would have also needed to call Trump out for BS like "Taking disinfectant internally" or worse "I knew this would be bad in January but I didn't want to cause a panic." What I wish had happened was 1) take it seriously from the start, 2) ALWAYS tell the people the truth. None of this "We lied about masks because we wanted to save the PPP for first responders" crap. 3) No lockdowns. 4) Using the bully pulpit to push non-pharmaceutical remedies that have been shown to be effective.
