“Taking down the deep state isn’t just a priority for President Trump — it’s the mandate the American people gave him,” Heritage President Kevin Roberts said in a statement. “If he succeeds, it will cement his legacy as the president who confronted Washington’s unaccountable bureaucracy and restored power to the people.
Heritage said its new Cabinet campaign will focus on “educating the American public” on the importance and history of presidential authority over Cabinet appointments and will specifically target the home states of senators whose votes could make or break a confirmation. Steve Bradbury, a Heritage fellow and former Department of Transportation general counsel, acknowledged the Senate’s advice and consent function but said it should “not be used to obstruct the president’s ability to put qualified appointees in place.”
