Local residents were taken aback when, instead of a breakfast buffet, their morning meal at the Capitol Building consisted of a stack of President Trump's nominees. It seems Senate Republicans have taken "breakfast in bed" quite literally, as they contemplate speeding up confirmation process for lower-level nominees.

In an unexpected twist, this rule shift was first proposed by Democrats back in the day, but was swiftly shot down by the GOP, citing party principles and tradition. Now, with a change of leadership and the taste of power, it appears they've found a newfound appreciation for their own medicine.

Apparently, this bold move comes as part of a strategy to fill key positions before the end of Trump's term, ensuring a lasting legacy in government agencies. It remains to be seen whether this sudden appetite for confirmation will leave a bitter aftertaste or a satisfying fullness.
