Trump's Acting Cabinet Is Accountable Only to Trump

Note: They are not decision maker's! (There is only one - Trump)
By filling the executive branch with temporary officials, the president shields some of his administration's cruelest practices from meaningful public scrutiny. (in short he can blame them rather then be called out for their actions).
(In Short): Right now, a Senate confirmation battle in which lawmakers could ask about a nominee's position on ICE raids, for example—or family separation, or deportation practices, or child detention facilities—would command national attention, and perhaps force the administration to answer for some of its cruelest practices. But by installing unaccountable, obedient loyalists at the head of the agencies enforcing immigration law, Trump has avoided this unpleasantness altogether, quietly consolidating power over the issue about which he cares most. An acting Cabinet is good for Trump, because an acting Cabinet answers only to him.
