<p>Sen. John Thune (R-SD), who will take over as Senate Majority Leader starting in January, said during an interview on Thursday that the U.S. Senate will provide fair hearings to all of President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s nominees.</p>
<p>Thune made the remarks during a Fox News interview with Bret Baier when asked about Trump selecting Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead HHS and former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) to lead the DOJ.</p>
<p>&#8220;The American people want change in this country,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They&#8217;re tired of the Biden-Harris-Schumer agenda, and they want President Trump to fix some things. And he wants to get a team in place that can do that, and we&#8217;re going to work with him to see that he gets his team installed as quickly as possible so he can implement his agenda.&#8221;</p>
<p>Thune said that all the nominees have a process they must go through and that Senate Republicans would not allow Democrats to &#8220;obstruct or block President Trump and the will of the American people.&#8221;</p>
<p>He also noted that using recess appointments is a possibility but that to get to that point, Republicans would effectively have to all vote to go to recess, meaning that if some Republicans had a problem with a specific nominee, they could vote against going into recess at which point recess appointments would be off the table.</p>

<p>Thune said that Senate Republicans would take advantage of how Democrats weaponized the use of the budget reconciliation process during the Biden administration to ram through unpopular legislation with a simple 51-vote majority.</p>
<p>He said the Senate was focused on fixing the border, strengthening the economy, boosting the military, cutting regulations and taxes, and dominating energy.</p>
