Trump’s announcement comes after the U.S. Government Accountability Office found earlier this month that Wolf’s appointment as acting secretary did not follow processes outlined in federal law

Acting U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf testifies during a hearing on Capitol Hill, in Washington, on Aug. 6, 2020.U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he would nominate acting Department of Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf to permanently serve in that role.

Trump, a Republican who faces re-election on Nov. 3, made immigration a central focus of his first term in office as well as his re-election campaign against Democratic nominee Joe Biden.Still, even as immigration has been a top issue for Trump, he has cycled through leaders at DHS, which oversees immigration enforcement, and relied on many officials in temporary, “acting” positions.

Wolf led the DHS office of strategy, policy and plans before he became acting secretary in November 2019 as the fifth official in that role under Trump. Wolf helped lead the Trump administration’s efforts in July to quell racial justice protests in Portland, Oregon, which Wolf said had been infiltrated by “lawless anarchists.”

Trump to announce plasma treatment authorized for COVID-19After expressing frustration at the slow pace of approval for coronavirus treatments, U.S. President Donald Trump was set to announce on Sunday the emergency authorization of convalescent plasma for COVID-19 patients. Well if he is pushing for it , lets condemn it, science be damned ! Trump is rough around the edges but gets things done. Keeps his promises. Trudeau is so profoundly politically correct that he squeaks when he walks, he's broke every promise he ever made except legalizing pot, he gets nothing done and he's been busy helping himself to our money The truth is the FDA withdrew approval because it isnt working, trump called them the deep state and now is flogging the treatment. Because he needs something to get votes even if it doesnt work.
