selection

The snub is worth flagging here, not on grounds of taste — selection committees get it wrong all the time — but something more insidious.

Trump said he would formally announce the selection of Burgum - a former businessman who ran against the president-elect for the Republican presidential nomination - on Friday.

Many senators in both parties have already expressed concerns about some of Trump’s selections, but Trump has said he expects the body to test a controversial tactic that would let him bypass the confirmation process.

The authors of the letter are also concerned by the selection process for hosting COPs.

As a Justice alumnus, I’m confident that department veterans of both parties see Gaetz’s selection as perfectly awful.
