Biden/Harris Declare Victory Over The Weekend

President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris have declaring victory in the 2020 Presidential campaign in Wilmington, Deleware.

The speech focused on unifying the nation to tackle the big problems it faces. However, there was one slight dig. The former Vice President pledged to make America respected again.

Biden said he wanted to make America respected around the world again and to unite us here at home.

Harris thanked voters and said they chose hope, unity, decency, science and truth.

The California Senator is poised to make history as the first woman and the first person of color to be elected vice president.

Harris predicted she “will not be the last” woman to hold the office.

President-elect Biden called it “long overdue!” Harris said Biden will unite the country and heal the soul of the U.S. Harris stressed that Biden will represent the “best in us.”

Familiar names from the Obama Administration are reportedly up for jobs in President-elect Joe Biden’s administration.

POLITICO reports Susan Rice is considered the top candidate for the Secretary of State job. Rice was a potential running mate for Biden due to their close friendship.

Former Defense Undersecretary for Policy Michele Flournoy is believed to be the leading contender for Defense Secretary.

Biden could tap Alejandro Mayorkas as Department of Homeland Security chief. He was DHS’ deputy secretary during the Obama administration.

Ex-Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz is believed to be a potential nominee for the job again.

The big fight may be over Treasury Secretary where Biden favors Rhode Island Governor Gina Raimondo or Federal Reserve governor Lael Brainard for the job.

Progressives want either Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren or Ex-Treasury Deputy Secretary Sarah Bloom Raskin.
