Republican Senator James Lankford says Congress will not give blanket approval to Donald Trump's cabinet picks.

The Oklahoma senator said he would not vote for all of the president-elect's cabinet nominees.

Lankford said Congress will have tough questions in particular for former Democratic congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard , who was chosen by Trump as director of national security for his second administration.

Hegseth, the nominee for defense secretary, was subject of a sexual assault investigation in 2017 .

He knows who he wants to put in those positions,” he said. “That’s why he’s been able to move fast, because he knows he has four years to reach the mandate the American people said they want, the government going in a different direction. These nominations are going to deliver that for him.”.
