Biden lets science dictate; appoints Rachel Levine to be Secretary of Health

Credentials don't matter. If you read the headlines of the Washington Post, the only thing that matters for Biden's cabinet is gender, race, and now gender identity.

That is the fault of WaPo not Biden.

Now I suspect that her identity might have given her an edge over other candidates with very similar experience. The primary thing is that she appears to be very qualified---not something I could often write with Trump.

Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't putting restrictions on trade the basis of Donalds trump policies? How many tariffs and trade wars issues did we have in the past 4 years? And last I check the police unions overwhelming vote republican. Funny how the republicans never talk about dissolving them...

Speaking of Wars. President Trump led our country into exactly ZERO wars. Something that Biden won't be able to say.

What war did Obama lead us into?

Democrats are “funny”

A month ago, I would have agreed with you. But liberal media seems to barely care about the pandemic anymore - virtually all attention re-directed on Trump departure and capitol riots - and they have no reason to return their attention to the pandemic, with Trump gone. I think it's going to be a "declare victory and go home thing" soon.

No, Biden's admin just has a coherent plan to get us out of this mess so people are feeling more optimistic.

National effort to vaccinate + scale up production will get us there.

Trump could have rolled out the national guard to set up vaccination clinics but he didn't.

Thank god we have competent people in charge again. Likely will save 100k+ lives over the Trump trajectory.

Be that as it may, my point was the media hardly reports on the pandemic any more, even after we've gone through by far the worst of it in the last few weeks. The got distracted to say the least, and I don't seem them returning to it with the same zeal as before, even with deaths in the 3000+ per day.

By they way, on top of your post being completely irrelevant to mine, you haven't said much other than you think Biden will increase vaccine capacity. Not the most daring prediction.

Xavier Becerra is expected to again attempt to force the Little Sisters of the Poor to provide coverage for abortifacients. In late 2020, arguing that the prosecution would discourage pregnant women from obtaining addiction treatment, Becerra requested that the Supreme Court of California block the murder prosecution of a woman who had consumed methamphetamine during her pregnancy, resulting in a stillbirth. The court declined to do so.

But in Democrat minds, abortion is "safe" and doesn't kill anyone, though it deliberately kills about 700,000 innocent human beings annually in the USA alone.

A lot of constructive criticism on this thread.
