EXCERPT:

MANCHIN: "Well, I have spoke to Xavier, and we had a great conversation. We're supposed to meet. We've sent out some questions that we wanted answers for. I haven't had time, Jake, in all honesty, to really work on those nominations while we're in this — the whole thing with the most important piece of legislation that we could possibly have, the Covid relief package. But we will get to that next week as we go back. And I look forward to sitting down and learning more about that and moving forward. I have always been — I've always given discretion to the president wanting to put his team together. Any executive should put their team together. And I try to do that to the best of my ability."
