I wanted to have a thread for some of the action in the first 100 days that maybe aren't as big of a discussion. There are going to be a lot of topics, and quite frankly seeing 5000 threads about what Trump is doing this hour gets old, quick.

So, anything that goes on in the first 100 days and you don't necessarily want to start a thread about it if there isn't one already, put it here.

I'll start off with the NSC thing. I was surprised there was no thread already, and I'm not going to hash out all of the concerns initially brought up around Bannon's placement on the principal, but I will say that he may get yanked off, soon. Apparently, according to the USC, for anyone other than those specifically listed in the law to be on the NSC to have a seat, they must be confirmed by the Senate. Bannon's role in the administration was chosen specifically so he wouldn't have to go through confirmation hearings that likely wouldn't go very well. So, it's either send him to a Senate that is not very friendly to him, or pull him off of the NSC.

I had friends asking about that (senate confirmation) but I didn't have time to look it up.

Thanks.
