I have no issue with GOP challenging some of these noms because that's what they are supposed to do but I will say this, if they want to play hardball Biden will need to match them and do it quickly. It'll be interesting to watch.
He'd be more dove-ish than Flournoy and seems to be more simpatico with Biden.
But another general leading DOD?

at this point, even the knicks twitter account will just have to show a shrug gif or something. they barely exist as a professional franchise. i forget about the knicks all the time
Vilsack should not be appointed to USDA. What is Biden even doing here..
Don't know anything about him. Recently retired generals shouldn't really be the Defense Secretary though
Vilsack would be the WOAT choice for the USDA again.
Julie Su. She would be a good pick.
Looks like he’s getting picked,
to Joe for giving us a black man in a tier 1 position of the cabinet.

Nah I can't cosign this. Sec of Defense should be a civilian appointment. I do not want to see a continuation of Trump style decisions where military figures receive government posts.

Xavier Becerra is a GREAT pick btw. Man if they can get both GA seats, we really might get a public option next year via reconciliation (which only requires 51 votes).

he's a qualified black man so i'mma let it cook, could have easily been an unqualified cac
there are 100 percent legitimate concerns about having retired commissioned officers serve as SECDEF. however im not sure practically how much of a difference four years versus seven years in retirement makes in their civilian character. any retired commissioned officer is likely going to retain at least some of their mindset from time in the military. especially somebody with stars. i think those concerns will be present whether they are retired for four years, seven years, twenty years, whatever. IMO the seven year rule is more about preventing the appearance of a conflict of interest.
