I think POTUS just screwed them sideways.

The Presidential Transitions Effectiveness Act allows the current President to fill ALL VACANCIES that are not under nomination for 30 days if the Transition starts. There doesn’t need to be oversight, advise and consent, or anything. If the TRANSITION starts, the current president is obliged to fill seats for 30 days. Holy crap. Do you know the damage he can do in 30 days? All because they wanted Muh Transition? Beautiful!!!
