  1. At some point people will stop caring about who someone is sleeping with, what they have between their legs or what color they are. Not in my lifetime, but one can hope.

    1. @Amfonee Granilla behaviour not sexualising. Trump is a sleaze. I don’t think of him as heterosexual just sick.

    2. There was a man who walked the face of the earth once that tried to teach us this. Somehow we’ve all fallen away from his call to love each other no matter what or who they are. It would sure be nice to get back there.

  2. Soooooo…….Now it’s ok to label and objectify? Would have been waaaay more impressed had he hired him and left it at that.

  3. Japan has had bullet trains for decades.
    China has bullet trains.
    US have NO bullet trains.
    Infrastructure catch up will create US jobs.

  4. We need more progressives and people who believe in modern monetary theory.  Period.  We NEED to put the pressure on president joe biden for executive action on student loan forgiveness on day one.  As the law allows.  Studentloanjustice.org

  5. I agree, this is going to be a fantastic, smart, and innovative cabinet. Pete is a great choice for Secretary of Transportation. I am so excited for President Elect Biden and Vice President Elect Harris to be confirmed on January 20, 2021; and for Joe to get his cabinet and appointees up and running on day one. It will be good for me and our country; no more corrupt, drama everyday Impeached trump.

  6. Yay. The Spokesman in Chief for every Democrat in America, Joebiddiden, and his new Education, uhhh, Transportation Secretary, Petebooteisgidg.

    1. A cabinet-level position but not a cabinet position… the cabinet is composed by the secretaries plus the attorney General, the cabinet-level position aren’t part of the cabinet aren’t secretaries, besides Grenell never made it to the senate
