    We don't have any idea yet about what policy can be legislated. A LOT depends on the two Georgia run-offs

    Funny to see you returning to the "audit the Fed" shtick after not caring about it at all the last 4 years. I'm sure Rand Paul and others will follow soon.

    I really like the Cabinet he's putting together - mostly for what he's NOT doing. He's not putting politicians anywhere. Unfortunately, most federal agencies have been gutted functionally and have major morale problems. What they need, more than anything, are strong administrators that can rebuild the agencies and their functions. And politicians have no administrative skills to note, in general. Policy beliefs, unfortunately, are secondary right now. Once the agencies are rebuilt, that's when I'd like to see a shift to stronger policy preferences.

    So we are just not gonna see what policies are implemented?

    It's amazing how Obama time in office is now a bad thing. Some people just got to be upset about something at all times.

    SMH.

    What the **** makes millenials the expert on what needs to happen?

    What the hell is a 21st century solution and how does that get passed congress.

    Why can't any of these appointments have '21st" century solutions?

    The TPP and the Iran treaty and Climate control are all 21st century solutions.

    F***king hypocrites


    President-elect Joe Biden announced that Neera Tanden was his pick to be the next Office of Management and Budget director.

    More than 18 hours prior, however, Republicans were already predicting that Tanden would never make it through the confirmation process.
    Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton referred to Tanden as a "partisan hack."
    "Neera Tanden, who has an endless stream of disparaging comments about the Republican Senators' whose votes she'll need, stands zero chance of being confirmed," tweeted Drew Brandewie, communications director for Texas Sen. John Cornyn.

    Cotton, Cornyn and Brandewie were silent during the last 5 yrs when Trump was hurling insults disparaging people

    why audit when you can make it obsolete and opt out entirely by converting your savings from USD to bitcoin?

    senator cornyn is suddenly concerned about decorum... who knows, he may soon worry about things like tax returns, deficits and balanced budgets

    I can't believe they are actually saying they will vote against her because she said mean things about them.

    WTF?

    Maybe she should've tweeted about how ugly Ted Cruz's wife is and how tiny Marco Rubio is.
