8:22:36Now PlayingWATCH LIVE: Senator Chris Van Hollen pressed Deputy OMB Director nominee Hal Duncan in a tense Senate hearing, challenging claims that federal operations have become more efficient under the Trump administration. Van Hollen pointed to long lines at Social Security offices, IRS warnings about tax-season risks, and staffing gaps at FEMA and the National Weather Service, arguing that mass firings had backfired. He noted that thousands of federal employees had to be rehired at significant taxpayer cost, saying, “That doesn’t sound more efficient to me.” The exchange grew heated as Van Hollen repeatedly demanded direct answers on controversial remarks about civil servants and plans to shift merit-based roles to political appointees, warning that such moves could take the government down a “very dangerous road.”
