'They're Lying': Michael Steele Sounds Alarm On 1 Thing Trump Appointees Keep Saying
HuffPost
The former RNC chair called the three nominees set for hearings this week a "threat" to the country.
MSNBC analyst Michael Steele on Sunday warned against President Donald Trump’s picks for high-level government positions.
“The three nominees this week are just wholly unqualified,” said Steele, who is the former chair of the Republican National Committee. “The reality that we have now in front of us is someone who is a threat to our national security in Tulsi Gabbard, someone who’s a threat to our homeland security in Kash Patel, and someone who’s a threat to our health in RFK Jr.”
The three are Trump’s picks for director of national intelligence, FBI director and Health and Human Services secretary, respectively, and set for Senate confirmation hearings later this week.
Steele told Sen. Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-Del.) that he would “block every last one of them” if he had a vote.
