5. There are upwards of 4000 positions that are done by Presidential appointment

and they ALL need confirmation by the Senate.

Biden has been prioritizing judicial appointees and so far, upwards of 600 positions of a variety of positions requiring confirmation, have completed that process.

There are still U.S. Attorney vacancies that are slowly being filled too, so Architect is probably down on the list for priority (usually they are geeks but it sounds like this guy was right up 45's ally ).
