Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) said Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Weeknight” that President Donald Trump was using “dangerous” authoritarian tactics by attacking the press.

However, Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) has flatly refused to overrule MacDonough’s rulings. MacDonough’s controversial rulings stripped out major reforms Republicans had promised voters—ranging from bans on abortion funding, illegal immigrant benefits, and taxpayer-subsidized sex-change operations for minors.

In a small, highly aligned team, collective decision making can be efficient. But as an organization scales up, consensus-driven business decision making becomes a bottleneck.getty In the modern workforce, consensus is treated as a virtue.
