After a week of blistering confirmation hearings, the most contentious hearings are still yet to come. Will Tusli Gabbard, nominated for Director of Intelligence, and RFK, nominated for Health and Human Services Secretary, be able to make it through a grueling confirmation process?
From Just the News. Many of President-elect Donald Trump’s top-level nominees earned high marks this week following their hearings on Capitol Hill and appear poised for confirmation, but some of his less conventional picks have yet to have their hearings even scheduled and remain the subject of vocal opposition in the upper chamber.

Among the candidates who have not appeared yet and are most likely to struggle are Director of National Intelligence-designate Tulsi Gabbard and Health and Human Services Secretary-designate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The pair sought the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020 and 2024, respectively, but ultimately joined Trump’s camp in the 2024 election. …
Gabbard
A former Hawaii Democratic member of Congress and war-zone veteran in the Middle-East, Gabbard rose to national prominence during her 2020 presidential campaign when she famously sparred with now-Vice President Kamala Harris over her record as a prosecutor.
She ultimately withdrew from the primary, left the party, and emerged as a favorite of the MAGA movement due in part to her views on rolling back American intervention in foreign conflicts. …
After Trump tapped Gabbard to serve as DNI, Republicans expressed skepticism, including Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., who noted “[s]he met with Bashar Assad. We’ll want to know what the purpose was.”
Gabbard visited Syria in 2017, where she met with Assad and later challenged categorizations of him as an enemy of the United States. …
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Kennedy initially sought to wrest the Democratic presidential nomination from President Joe Biden, but later mounted an independent campaign citing frustrations with the Democratic National Committee.
Near the end of the election cycle, he dropped out of the contest and endorsed Trump, which led to the debut of “Make America Healthy Again” as a key campaign point. …
Kennedy’s confirmation appears to be the most contentious of all Trump’s picks. Democrats have labeled him a “conspiracy theorist” or “Anti-Vaxxer” over his past writings critical of specific vaccines and the approval process. Some Republicans, meanwhile, have expressed reservations about appointing a pro-choice figure …
This week, the would-be HHS secretary is meeting with key Democratic lawmakers on relevant health-related committees. He will likely have to account for intense opposition from American physicians, 15,000 of whom wrote an open letter against him last week. …
Paths to confirmation
Neither nominee has their post in the bag, but with their hearings unscheduled, they still have time to work behind the scenes to assuage Republican doubts. It is somewhat unclear how many votes they will need at a minimum, given the departure of Vice President-elect JD Vance from the Senate and expected confirmation of Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., as secretary of state.
Republicans will nonetheless have a majority, however, as two vacancies would still leave them with 51 Republicans and 47 Democrats/independents. …

They need to be confirmed because they are change agents, and positive change needs to happen!
Adonai Yeshua HaMeschiach
We praise you and thank you for allowing this dramatic change in the governance of America, which has greatly enjoyed you grace and blessings. We earnestly pray for Your will and protection for President Trump and all his nominees during these upcoming events. From my lowly perspective Adonai, it appears that globalism is the gravest single threat to the worlds population, as it continues to grow and thrive while raising the spirit of AntiChrist, secular humanism, perversion, rebellion, godlessness. Lord, these appointees and President Trump are seemingly our last, best hope of slowing and defeating the subversive, globalist agendas. We pray that Your will is done, that these nominees might easily reach their goals in returning America back to its liberty and roots, which were in accord with your Word.
Please Lord let America return to you in repentance, revival and faith, so that we as a nation might aid Israel, your possession, and shine your light to a growingly dark and hostile world. With praise, thanks and humility we pray these things in the precious and righteous name of YESHUA HaMeschiach. Amen Amen
Tulsi Gabbard made it clear that if investigations revealed that Assad had gassed 300000 of his own citizens he was out, which he’s out anyway. She made a similar statement about Putin’s viability. It’s liberals who oppose Tulsi Gabbard, not conservatives.
RFK Jr. made it clear do Senator Hawley that he would support President Trump’s pro-life policies.
Praying that RFK Jr gets in! He has had such courage to face the corruption of Big Pharma and it’s corruption to hide the truth. Please keep him and Trump safe! He has stood up amidst much persecution for the children of our country. I also pray Gabby gets in. Thank you Lord for the movement in our country against satan’s agenda. We trust in you.
DEAR LORD GOD
PLEASE HELP JFK JR., TULSI GABBARD AND OTHERS WHO’VE BEEN MERCILESSLY ATTACKED BY EVIL CORPORATE INTERESTS. LET THEBTHREATSVBE EMPTY, GROUNDLESS AND HAVE THEM DISSAPEAR INTO MIST
I ASK IN JESUS’ NAME
AMEN
I am praying for both of them! I am tired of big pharma poisoning us for profit! I have never taken the covid vax or any flu shots in my life and am perfectly healthy. I did get covid twice which was no worse than a slight cold. So the lies that you will get a weaker version of the disease are nil; because I got a weaker version of COVID with no vax.
I pray that Gabbard will be confirmed to be our Director of National Intelligence and RFK will be confirmed to be our Health & Human Services Director as both are highly qualified, knowledgeable as they’ve been revealing the truth and exposing the lies about National Intelligence and Health &Human Services. We need both of them to get our country back on track, representing We The People, and to STOP the left liberals from trying to destroy our freedoms for their own profits and power.
All of these deep state Congress members need to be in tune with..them trying to catch these nominees in perjury…that THEY “HAVE IN FACT COMMITTED PERJURY” without ANY reprecussions!
O Fairest of the children of men, whose gracious lips gave answer to the Pharisees, Sadducees, and rebellious political leaders of his time: give to those who are scheduled to answer before senators this week “foreheads of brass” and unshakable resolve. Arm them with the presence of Christ, which is the armor of God. In Jesus’s name, amen
Praying for God’s will to be done.
