A Cabinet Full of Biden’s Best

What a professional looking hat.

She’ll circle back, but you might not get an actual fact. That’s Blue Anon for you. As to old man winter, while exempt from masks and climate change restrictions when flying his private jet, he’ll be sure to America sign up for things that affect you and not him or others of his class. Because the more the political climate changes, the more the elites remain the same.

Next, foreign affairs. Nothing says diplomacy quite like dot dot dot dash dash dash dot dot dot. That was the message sent by incoming Secretary of State Antony J Blinken’s career employees when they were sodomized by the CCP. Nothing quite says ‘restoring America’s image in the world’ like ritual humiliation. Apparently he didn’t learn from the last time China humiliated Obamite diplomats. Maybe when Biden meets Xi in Alaska the big guy can get an explanation.

I wonder when we’ll here some public commentary from Secretary of Deep State Blinken on what the guy who called Biden’s election the most free and fair ever said about China’s most recent conduct: “At least 30,000 organizations across the United States — including a significant number of small businesses, towns, cities and local governments — have over the past few days been hacked by an unusually aggressive Chinese cyber espionage unit that’s focused on stealing email from victim organizations, multiple sources tell KrebsOnSecurity.

Defense, anyone?

that guy that runs that outfit over there.” Lloyd Austin, incoming Defense Contractor CEO Secretary of Defense. First up – an order to stand down. Because BLM and Antifa Riots all of 2020 show just how much extremism has affected society. Whoa, wait, sorry, wrong groups. It’s those people shown here at the capital protesting the election.

Hundreds were arrested and at least 6 officers hurt. Sorry, wrong “insurrection”. That group never got the memo.

Don’t worry, there’s a different memo laying out our Interim National Security Strategic Guidance. You can tell that the former defense contractor and general didn’t put that together by himself. The take from a retired naval officer, which I agree with so I’ll quote him (italics are mine):

“Wordcount time. …… Navy: 0 – Maritime/Sea/Ocean: 0” …..

“More than anything, this document makes it absolutely clear that not only are national security issues 3rd tier, the personnel, infrastructure, and power in DOD will be used to support, advance, and defend domestic political policy agenda items. Some of that is in the “Economy” count above, but these words make it clear; – Climate: 27 – Equity/equitable (NB: this does not mean equality): 11 – Diversity: 7 – “Build back better:” 5 – Racial/racism: 5 – Inclusive: 4 – Justice: 3 Compare those numbers and you get the direction the wind is blowing.”

Read the whole thing. (The guidance and the criticisms). Call your congressional rep, too. But rest assured, DOD will defend the most vulnerable. (But apparently Cyber Command isn’t up to defending our computer networks from hackers in China.)

Fort Pelosi, view from one of those wrong-think people.

On a bright note the defenders of Fort Pelosi are going to get a ribbon.

For the anti-American campaign.

Now defending all those special people and all that stuff is gonna cost a bundle. Where’s the money going to come from for all that? Well, let’s see who’s up at Treasury:

Game – Rigged – Stop. Remember, if you aren’t paying for it, you are the product. Of course there is no front running going on at that firm or at citadel. On a bright note at least she made $800,000 in speaking fees. No conflict of interest there; nor is there a revolving door. Don’t worry about inflation either, why spend and spend is so much more efficient that tax and spend. I’m sure when it comes to just how the money is spent, it won’t be a Neera run thing, as Neera Tanden withdrew her nomination to be head of OMB.

So there is some justice in this world after all. Speaking of Justice, here’s hoping the wheels don’t come off the DOJ bus with Merrick Garland driving. He seemed a bit out at his confermenation hearing. Just like Mueller.

““The investigation into those responsible is moving at a speed and scale that is unprecedented, and rightly so,” John Carlin said in a February speech on the threat of domestic terrorism. “Those responsible must be held to account, and they will be.”” That didn’t take as long as Russia Collusion did to get traction. I guess when your fabricated evidence need real traction, you need Obama retreads. And Joe’s got plenty of retreads on that thing. YMMV.

John Carlin: “Carlin headed Barack Obama’s National Security Division at the Justice Department for more than two years; his office handled all the evidence presented to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC)”. (A court supervised by John Roberts). Guess where the enduring Durham probe is going next.

Lisa Monaco as deputy attorney general. Our host did a write up.

Vanita Gupta. “Vanita Gupta should be asked about her abuse of the Vacancies Act while working for Obama.” Looks like the Indians are taking over, just like Joe said. No racism there, thank goodness for American cultural norms. “”Senator I was not misleading,” Gupta said. “I was speaking for my position today.” Norms like Senators actually doing their jobs in a confirmation hearing. Undoubtably some are curious what positions tommorrow brings…..

I am sure we can expect fair and resonable coduct from the DOJ, especially if past tweets, and conduct, are a guide to current conduct. Like in these cases being dismissed in Portland. Riots, what riots? Or this case before the court on illegal searches and siezures. I’m sure “community caretaking functions” would never be a rationale to disarm people identified by the FBI as taking part in a insurrection mostly peaceful protest or any other cause. I’m sure DOJ expects to get in front of a friendly judge, like the lone disenter. It’s a matter of principal.

Transportation: Peter Buttigieg. A new era calls for a novus homo. Apparently the most important qualification is what kind of sex one engages in. Just like the LA Times highlights in line 1. I’m sure the fuel mileage standards will go back to Obama era economy destroying levels shortly.

Energy: Jennifer Granholm. Please tell us all about the 8,000 parts per windmill and all those good, high paying union jobs destroyed by Biden’s EO cancelling the XL pipeline approval just like you did when you were governor of Michigan and all those jobs were going to China and Mexico. “We can buy electric car batteries from Asia, or we can make them in America. We can install wind turbines from Denmark, or we can make them in America,” Sounds like the same line you told Michiganders from 2003-11.

Gas is already pushing $3/gallon in Florida, I’m sure her green policies will help – the Russian Federation’s budget. I mean with oil pushing $70 a barrel now, compared to $40 or less when the election was stolen, how much more money does that give the Russians? Oh, and the Iranians. Can’t let the Borg think I’ve forgotten about them.

Interior: Deb Haaland. Like one of the two women nominated by Lloyd Austin to be general officers she’s half-Dutch American. Whoa, scratch that. She’s all Native American. ‘Cause I’m all wide awoke and would hate to get important things wrong, like public policy on public lands identifying people by race. “The US Department of the Interior conserves and manages the nation’s natural resources….” (via CNN link). I bet we can all look to a future with new mines bringing critically needed metals to market, for all those batteries Jennifer Granholm promises will be built in America, with good paying union jobs. Maybe those soon to be unemployed coal miners can do that, rather than put batteries together.

Education: Miguel Cardona. I wonder if the University of Connecticut taught him the right number of genders when he got that PhD? No worries, 18,000,000 kids out of school for a year (out of 50,000,000) because teachers, I mean the virus, which even the CDC says doesn’t put kids at risk. “To say that one-day-a-week in-person instruction is a reopening of schools is to lie.” He’ll fix it. I’m sure the teacher’s union members, who don’t have kids in private school, will demand to go back to work so they can earn a paycheck, it’s not like they’ve been getting paid the same amount all this time, eh?

HHS: California Attorney General Xavier Becerra.  “Xavier Becerra is a disaster for religious freedom and pro-life issues,” Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont., said on Twitter following Biden’s announcement. “He has made his career aggressively pursuing a radical pro-abortion agenda and attacking the religious freedom of Americans who believe in the sanctity of human life.” Nothing controversial there.

Homeland Security: Alejandro Mayorkas. There is no crisis at the Southern Border, it’s a “challenge”! Hey, sophistry worked the last time around, so why not try it again? “the “challenge” is not just for the government, but for non-governmental organizations and border communities.” (I see a lot of your tax dollars going to No Government Oversight groups) “Everyone understand what occurred before us and what we need to do now.” …. ““The prior administration dismantled our immigration system in its entirety,” Mayorkas said. “Quite frankly, the entire system was gutted.” That’s not what I recall; I remember Trump cutting illegal immigration and getting Mexico and Guatamala to curtail the human traffickers.

Psaki defends reopening of migrant facility for children under Biden: ‘This is not kids being kept in cages’”

Biden Bungalows

Ah, the Biden Bungalows. No telling where all the T-shirts are coming from, but these look like taxpayer funded waystations on the human trafficking network. Thanks Joe.

And there you have it. A cabinet full of Biden’s Best. The only thing missing is Jack.

I don’t know about you, but after reading all that, I need a drink. Oh, crap. I’ve given up Coke. Maybe just a little Woodford’s Double Oak. I’m all out of Laphroaig.

    That must have taken a while to assemble. Thank you.

  2. JerseyJeffersonian says:

    Fred,

    As JohninMK observed, your post must have taken a lot of work. It is appreciated. A sobering compilation, but growing each and every day, so it would seem.

    Thanks,
    JJ

    I wish I’d had a camera along for my most recent visit to the Greek isles in the summer of 1988. I can’t recall anything more health-restoring or breathtakingly beautiful. By that time the Cyckades were nearly denuded of trees which was due to shipbuilding, I was told. For reasons of health I wish I’d known ahead of time to dine at the Italian restaurants, whose discovery nearly saved me. That was concurrent with newspaper stories forecasting the sad fate of George Bush the first’s presidential campaign. But then came the helmeted tank trip. Think that one over. Dukakis presiding over the fall of Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. Who knows?

    Lloyd Austin, incoming Defense Contractor CEO Secretary of Defense.

    https://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/politics/541975-will-lloyd-austin-stand-up-to-the-generals#MilIsOnlyWay

    In January, when Congress was considering whether to grant the waiver needed for recently retired General Lloyd Austin to become secretary of Defense, politicians and policy wonks on both sides of the aisle expressed concern and reservations about undermining “civilian control of the military.” In his preconfirmation correspondence with Congress, Austin’s testimony and public comments repeatedly committed to robust civilian control. In fact, during his confirmation hearing, Austin told the Senate Armed Services Committee that “The safety and security of our democracy demand competent civilian control of our armed forces, the subordination of military power to the civil.”

    Now, only weeks into his tenure, Secretary Austin is considering the reversal of some, or possibly all, of the reforms intended to reaffirm and bolster civilian control of the Tampa, Fla.-based United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) and our nation’s elite special operation forces (SOF). Concern about this potential about-face has caused some members of the defense committees to write directly to Austin.
