The Democrats put up a fight and did everything possible to oppose Vought. The Democrats have been screeching about Russ Vought because he helped author the Heritage Foundation’s “Project 2025.”
Russ Vought also believes that the 2020 election was illegitimate and rigged.
On Wednesday, the Senate voted to invoke cloture 53-47. Rather than yielding back their time because they weren’t going to be able to stop the confirmation, Senate Democrats forced the final vote to take place 30 hours later on Thursday night.
During the roll call on Thursday, Senate Democrats broke the rules and gave speeches as they voted.
“I vote against creepy billionaire influence,” Senator Sheldon Whitehouse said, according to NBC News.
Democrat Senator Patty Murray (WA) threatened Russell Vought after he was confirmed.
“Senate Republicans just confirmed Russ Vought to manage our nation’s budget,” Senator Murray said. “Vought is an extremist who has made clear he’ll ignore our nation’s laws, cut funding that helps people across the country & give Trump unprecedented & unconstitutional power. There will be consequences.”

Republicans celebrated Russ Vought’s confirmation.
Congratulations to @russvought for being confirmed as Director of OMB.
Russ is a conservative force against the radical left and the Washington establishment.
With his help, we’ll restore fiscal sanity to our budgets and dismantle the regulatory state.
