Kennedy faces skepticism from Senator Bill Cassidy, while Patel breaks with Trump on Jan. 6 pardons and Gabbard is questioned about Edward Snowden.

Additionally, Vice President JD Vance has been given free rein to hire staff within the White House, Democrats are fighting against a freeze on federal aid, and workers in federal agencies are feeling fear, anger, and confusion over Trump’s orders.
