(Redwave Press)—In a recent push to expedite the confirmation of his Cabinet members, President Donald Trump has called on Senate Republicans to “get tough very fast” and finalize the remaining nominations. Trump’s remarks, which underscore the urgency for national security, were highlighted in a statement where he accused Democrats of deliberately delaying the process, thus jeopardizing the country’s safety.
The Senate has been working to confirm Trump’s appointees at a pace that Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) has described as “ahead of schedule” compared to Trump’s first term. During that time, it took 43 days to confirm the first 12 nominees. Thune has advocated for what he calls the “Obama standard,” where former President Barack Obama saw his first 12 nominees confirmed within his first 15 days.
However, the process hasn’t been without its challenges. Last week, Pete Hegseth was narrowly confirmed as Defense Secretary, requiring a tiebreaking vote from Vice President JD Vance, indicating the close margins and the political tension surrounding some of Trump’s picks.
Trump’s latest comments reflect his impatience with the confirmation process, insisting that the safety of the nation hinges on having his full Cabinet in place. He emphasized that Democrats are “having a good time at the Country’s expense and safety,” suggesting their delays are politically motivated rather than based on the merits of his nominees.
This call to action comes at a time when several of Trump’s more controversial picks are under scrutiny. For instance, Tulsi Gabbard, nominated for a key intelligence role, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., proposed for Health and Human Services, have stirred debate among both Republicans and Democrats, with some GOP senators like Susan Collins (R-ME), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), and Mitch McConnell (R-KY) viewed as potential obstacles in their confirmation.
The urgency from Trump to “get tough” might also be influenced by the broader political context where the administration has already taken significant steps, including executive orders targeting federal spending, immigration, and more, which require a fully functioning Cabinet to implement effectively.
As the Senate continues to navigate through these nominations, the dynamic between the White House and Congress, especially with a Republican majority, will be critical in shaping the administration’s early policy execution and political landscape.
It’s time for the Senate to do its job and confirm for the nation the cabinet it needs as quickly as possible.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
