Joining us now is Senator Rick Scott from the great state of Florida. Senator, thank you for taking the time. As always, we have this standing appointment on Monday. You are doing a wonderful job.

What is Senator Rick Scott's perspective on budget confirmations?

Charlie Kirk 1:48
I'm in the state of Florida right now, and I hope you are, too, because it's just a great spot. I'm still here.
Scott 1:54
I go back in about an hour. We're working on these confirmations, these nominations to get them done. So we have to be there. to move the process along because the Democrats keep trying to block it.
Charlie Kirk 2:04
Yeah, so tell us about that. What exactly are the Democrats able to do? Can you explain this? Because our audience gets a little impatient, as they should. They say, we have a majority. Why do we have to wait for these guys for cabinet officials? What gives? Explain it, please, to our audience.

How are Democrats affecting the Senate nomination process?

Scott 2:20
Well, first off, here's what's frustrating. We've had 13 nominees done. At this time, Obama had 26. So what's happened is they can slow the process down by requiring us to have a vote on every procedural move you can imagine. They are. They're also requiring us to use the entire 30 hours of debate time for every cabinet member, which they are. So, you know, we have to stay there. We have to work weekends. We have to get these things done. Tonight, we're going to be doing the confirmation for Tulsi Gabbard. And then once we get her finished, which will be either tomorrow or Wednesday, we'll go to Robert Kennedy. So I'm optimistic that we're going to get enough votes to get everybody through. But be vocal.
Scott 3:06
Tell your senators how much you care about these individuals because it increases the odds that they'll vote for them.
Charlie Kirk 3:12
So, Senator, when is it worth saying, OK, we need to we need to change the Senate rules? I mean, at what point do we get there? Because we are now three weeks into the presidency. I know that's a tough question and I know that it comes with a lot of weight, but we're three weeks in and we still do not have a secretary of commerce. We still do not have – and by the way, just so everyone in the audience understands, we don't have any of the deputy positions either. We're talking about deputy positions that need to be Senate confirmed. This is – they are not good faith actors. I know. We have no ambassadors. So, Senator, they're trying to steal Trump's second term.
Scott 3:49
Well, what they're trying to do is try to make sure he didn't win. I mean he won. He got a mandate. So what we have to do is we have to keep Hussein up there, and eventually I believe what's going to happen is – The Democrats will finally relent, although what Elon Musk is doing is just destroying them. The fact that he's showing this unbelievable abuse.
