the return to competence ! President-elect Joe Biden on Monday selected Dr. Rochelle Walensky to run the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention when his administration takes office next month. Walensky teaches at Harvard Medical School and is an infectious disease physician at both Massachusetts General Hospital and the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, according to her biography on the former hospital's website. https://www.npr.org/sections/biden-.../biden-names-massachusetts-doctor-to-lead-cdc Biden has also selected Xavier Becerra, the Democratic attorney general of California, as his nominee for secretary of health and human services, tapping a former congressman who would be the first Latino to run the department as it battles the surging coronavirus pandemic.
When you think retrumplicans can't go any lower... as long as trump and his sycophants like cruz keeps filing frivlous suits, the retrumplican senate won't confirm President Bidens cabinet nominees. Biden should simply name a series of "acting" cabinet. And not care if they are confirmable or not. Opens the door for Warren, Yates, Rice...
I am hearing that Biden is getting great pressure to have a high level LGBTQ appointee. Hopefully it will not be lIke the Black oil and gas guy appointed to Environmental Advisor. Or like the recently retired Black General to now defense contractor lobbyist appointed to Pentagon Chief who will undoubtedly spend his time in the Cabinet upping his monetary value for when he recycles back to the military industrial complex. Who cares about policy.? A first on Identity or "diversity" will exite the MSNBC/NYT crowd and give a patina of progressivity in their minds. Ok, better than Trump, so be quiet.
Well best to keep this war hawk away from foreign policy, though I am sure she will still lobby Biden for some hot war, drone or murderous sanction action.
cuomo for ag this is perfect resume for 2024. repugs worst nightmare LOCK UP TRUMP!! https://www.businessinsider.com/new...r-biden-2020-12?amp&__twitter_impression=true
yes, way better than the unqualified lunatics that trump regularly gave power. So yes, trumpers shut up. No idea If you are one or not. I’m tired of trumpers never shutting up, having double standards, engaging in intellectual dishonesty, and basically being ignorant dumbs asses whose intellect and honesty are inversely proportional to their never ending desire to utter the next idiotic thought in their heads. The world was a much better place before trump made it acceptable to say stupid things with impunity, and then play the victim and cry censorship or woke culture or cancel culture. if you’re not a trumper, I suspect you totally agree with me.
Doesn't make sense to appoint Mayor Pete to Transportation Secretary, but I'll take it! I would of thought Biden would appoint someone with a bit more experience in that sector.
Awesome pick... one of my favorite congresswomen... and as a Native American, I am especially proud today.
He's definitely not a Trumper. He's just someone who doesn't cheerlead establishment Democrats and pretend they act out of pragmatism rather than corporate lobbying influence like many here do.
I don't disagree with you. I'm a Pete fan, so I'm happy that he got a position, just doesn't make sense for it to be the transportation secretary, although I know he will be fine.
I was being sarcastic. I'm just showing how Biden rewards his friends in high places. At least he isn't hiring his son but let's not pretend being qualified is always the number one criteria for these picks. It's "I scratch your back and you scratch my back" decision making.
