By law, we had to make certain redactions.… But we said to Congress, any congressman can come in and spend as much time as they want looking at everything unredacted.

He's the AG. This was a trick they pulled in the first term. You make a guy the "acting" head of the agency, and he does the job until the new guy gets appointed, and approved by the Senate.

So what happens if you name an "acting" head, and then never choose a final appointee? Nothing. Nothing happens. Your chosen guy remains the head of the agency, without ever being vetted or approved by the Senate.

Todd Flintstone is the new AG, for all ill tents and porpoises.
