As someone new to politics can anyone explain why he is the “acting” and not the official DHS?

I should add that the democrats have done every legal procedure humanly possible to hold up the confirmations of as many Trump appointees as possible. Then there is how the dems opposed every appointee starting at Inauguration Day which is in stark contrast to every other president in American history which was given a “honeymoon” for the first 100 days where the incoming president was basically given most of their agenda, opposition free, because of a mandate for winning. Trump must have his honeymoon after he wins with this landslide.

Hell, ever confirmation for appointies along with anything else trump tries to get done. Like the wall, different kinds of reforms or hell even just some damn ice cream there is some obama appointie there banging a gavel to block it.

At least Mitch is getting judges in, so I can't grumble too much. We own the 9th now.
