Interesting. https://www.msn.com/en-us...r-BB1brHuu [b]Biden eyeing Cindy McCain for UK ambassador position: report]/b] Jordan Williams 8 hrs ago President-elect Joe Biden is reportedly eyeing Cindy McCain to serve as ambassador to the U.K., according to multiple reports citing The Times of London. McCain, the widow of the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), has been a vocal critic of President Trump and endorsed Biden during his campaign. She is a known Anglophile, the Independent noted, and is thought to be a front-runner in return for helping Biden flip Arizona. "It's hers if she wants it," a source told the Times. "She delivered Arizona. They know that." The Hill has reached out to Biden's transition team for comment. Biden became the first Democrat to win Arizona since 1996. Some Democrats say it was endorsements from McCain and former Sen. Jeff Flake - two respected Republicans from the state - that pushed Biden over the top. The two Republicans, who both said that Biden would restore civility and honor to the White House, have been floated for Biden administration posts, with McCain possibly serving as a top ambassador or in another diplomatic post.

Wow. Pretty cool. This is a real reach across the aisle; civility.

she and her husband are a disgrace but I am happy for her... but let's not pretend this is anything but a political ploy... she should not even be considered for any position she has no experience.

McCain would be a good pick for sure.

More added to Biden’s administration. https://www.cnn.com/2020/...index.html Biden announces all-female senior White House communications team By Kate Sullivan, CNN Updated 7:20 PM ET, Sun November 29, 2020 “President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris on Sunday announced an all-female White House senior communications team. "I am proud to announce today the first senior White House communications team comprised entirely of women. These qualified, experienced communicators bring diverse perspectives to their work and a shared commitment to building this country back better," Biden said in a statement.” Jen Psaki, who was President Barack Obama's White House communications director, will serve as White House press secretary. Kate Bedingfield, who served as deputy campaign manager and communications director for the campaign, will be White House communications director. Pili Tobar, who served as the communications director for coalitions on the campaign, will serve as deputy White House communications director. Karine Jean-Pierre, a senior adviser on the Biden campaign who later served as chief of staff to Harris, will serve as principal deputy press secretary. Symone Sanders, a senior Biden adviser on the campaign, will serve as a senior adviser and chief spokesperson for the vice president. Ashley Etienne, a senior adviser on the Biden campaign, will serve as communications director for the vice president. Elizabeth Alexander, a Biden campaign senior adviser, will serve as communications director for first lady Jill Biden. These seven women, several of whom are women of color, will occupy some of the most visible roles in the administration. Harris, who will make history as the country's first female vice president, described the newly-announced team as "experienced, talented, and barrier-shattering." [Edited 11/29/20 16:41pm]

This is miles and miles and miles ahead of anything that the GOP can muster. I also think this may please the more progressive Democrats. Glad to see Symone Sanders getting a position. She deserves it.

Another addition, that has to be confirmed by the Senate, although some progressives and conservatives have an issue with it. https://www.bostonglobe.c...s-bedford/ Neera Tanden, Biden’s reported choice for federal budget chief, has roots in Bedford “President-elect Joe Biden is poised to tap Neera Tanden to serve as his director of the Office of Management and Budget, national media reported on Sunday. If nominated and approved by the Senate, Tanden would one of America’s top financial policy makers, responsible for writing a federal budget that meets the goals of the new administration. Tanden worked in the Clinton and Obama administrations and now leads the Center for American Progress, a liberal think tank. But before she ascended to such lofty positions, Tanden made her mark as the daughter of Indian immigrants who grew up in Bedford, a town northwest of Boston.”

Apparently she is not well liked in the Republican-controlled Senate. It's thought that she will be the sacrificial lamb in order to make nice with the Senate Republicans.

Neera, the woke scold on Twitter?? Hell no, she is human cancer. Brace for awfulness again.

While the other guy has checked out with his golf clubs, Biden is talking like a how President should.

Biden making strides. https://apnews.com/articl...ce04701068 Biden picks Calif. AG Becerra to lead HHS, pandemic response By RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR, MICHAEL BALSAMO and JONATHAN LEMIRE an hour ago WASHINGTON (AP) —“ President-elect Joe Biden has picked California Attorney General Xavier Becerra to be his health secretary, putting a defender of the Affordable Care Act in a leading role to oversee his administration’s coronavirus response. Separately, Biden picked a Harvard infectious disease expert, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, to head the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. If confirmed by the Senate, Becerra, 62, will be the first Latino to head the Department of Health and Human Services, a $1-trillion-plus agency with 80,000 employees and a portfolio that includes drugs and vaccines, leading-edge medical research and health insurance programs covering more than 130 million Americans.”

I live in California and I think Xavier Beccerra is the perfect person for that position.Great pick.
