Why should we care? These agency leaders affect the lives of literally every person in this country. I recently reviewed some of the nominees for key science-based agencies.   There is a pattern of nominating people with conflicts of interest, or that have a history of opposing the very mission of the agencies they are appointed to lead.  And there are some nominees that just don't hold the qualifications needed for the positions they are being appointed to.  While I didn't do a comprehensive review, I found too many examples of these problems to ignore.
