News: Source very close to Labor Secretary nominee Andy Puzder tells me he expects Puzder to withdraw. "He's very tired of the abuse."
Very tired of the realization that he won't get to just do what he wants because he's rich and that his dirty laundry is going to be thoroughly aired.

If he's pulling out it means more than two senators on the GOP side of the aisle were not going to confirm him. First step is to actually get the administration to put competent people up for these roles and realize that the answer isn't simply "blow it up". Regulations are needed and not everything can be pushed to a state level.

The more they push to a state level the more you will see a huge disparity between have and have not states. And I again have to say I don't understand that mentality as have states already tend to be higher educated and lean democrat (or are very centrist). So the GOP has everything to lose if the have not states start to turn on them because the Federal government has been removed from their lives...at some point they'll figure out what those departments actually did for them. Or maybe they'll be happy teaching creation in their home schools while the blue states thrive.
