Blinken Gets Nod For SOS. Biden makes two other appointments. Mainstream all the way. An end to ‘America First’. He will also restore the UN Ambassadorship to Cabinet-level status. I wonder if Biden punted on Susan Rice b/c of ‘Benghazi’.
Too Crazy Even For Trump’s Legal Team. They were fine with Sidney Powell until she said stuff that could impact the Georgia runoffs:
Powell has also accused election officials in several states of committing crimes, and recently attacked Georgia’s Republican Gov. Brian Kemp, a Trump ally. Kemp helped certify President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the state on Friday after a recount affirmed the original result showing the Democrat winning Georgia.
But in a Saturday interview with conservative outlet Newsmax, Powell baselessly claimed that Kemp was bribed by a voting machine company in a conspiracy to defeat Trump. She also threatened a “biblical” lawsuit against Kemp, startling Trump allies like former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie who said Sunday that the conduct of Trump’s legal team is “a national embarrassment.”
Trump Supporters Call For Boycott Of Ga. Senate Races. Because ‘voting machines are rigged’ and ‘the deep state will collect your personal information’. Yes. This.
Another Important Race On Georgia’s Special Election Ballot. Climate activist seeks spot on Georgia’s Public Service Commission. He’s running against an 81-year old Bubba. Literally.
Heavy Lobbying To Fill Kamala Harris’ Senate Seat. Newsom can’t win. He’s gonna piss off a whole lotta people.
Should Biden Break Up The Huge Food Conglomerates? This author makes the case for it. Farmers seem to support the idea.
Why Ernesto Moniz Should Not Be In Biden’s Cabinet. His ties to the fossil fuels industry are, IMO, disqualifying. The hair worries me, too.
