[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump is stuck with Kelly. It's not like there's a line of quality applicants for the job.[/quote]

[b]Rumor is Rick Mulvaney is leading candidate to take over for Kelly.[/b]

Personally, I'd prefer him to be out of [i]OMB and CFPB[/i] where he's creating havoc.[/quote]

Mick Mulvaney, love him or hate him, has been very effective and successful at implementing the Trump administration's policies and goals at both OMB and CFPB.  Mulvaney would undoubtedly be a very effective WH Chief of Staff, but wouldn't the Trump administration be hesitant to remove him from the OMB and CFPB?  [/quote]

Are the heads of OMB and CFPB Senate confirmed? I can’t remember.[/quote]

I think so.  Mulvaney is only Acting head of CFPB, remember, because this one would be very hard to get anyone confirmed.[/quote]

The next head will be Hensarling. But they can't appoint him until the lame duck session in December, since Hensarling is intending to finish his term. Two of Hensarling's top aides recently joined Mulvaney at the CFPB:
