WHO?.....

 

[basquebromance]

she's one of the most outspoken members of the Progressive Caucus...she should be part of The Squad, basically

WHO?.....

Better pay attention..She's up for Sec. of the Interior!

A Native American in charge of public lands...hmmmmm. She is anti oil industry..and anti-fossil fuel.

Yes indeed, let us suppress the woman because, well, er, because we can...

If she is a strong independent woman than she will naturally be opposed by Republicans..those kind of women scare the hell out them. Like Neera Tanden for example. They oppose her becasue she said some mean things on social media about them..after four years of chuckling over Trump's mean spirited tweets they are upset about mean comments now..(rolls eyes)

Resident Biden's picks are of no interest to me...he is not the legitimate president....and will be gone in 24....

What kind of squaw is named "Deb"? Whatever happened to Screeching Cheeks or Itchy Gash...

She's probably dumber than a fence post but this stolen regime is only interested in checking a box....

Let's ask the circle back press sec'y about this:

even PEARL JAM is on board!

I hope the Senate confirms her.

It would great to have a Native American Cabinet member.

If she is really an AOC type, then she will shake up things. It will be a lot of fun.

A President should be able to have whom he wants as his Cabinet members.

If she steps on too many Dem toes, then we can expect that her letter of resignation (because of her desire "to concentrate on personal issues") will soon be on the desk of that man from Delaware.

“I fully, 100 percent support her appointment,” Williams said of Haaland, despite the fact that she’s a progressive and he’s been voting Republican since the Reagan years. “And the reason for that is I don’t have to explain to her what it means to be an Indian.”

Native Americans Finally Have a Cabinet Nominee. Will an Adopted Tlingit Take Her Down?

With the GOP digging in against Deb Haaland as Interior secretary, Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski faces a choice between her party and a powerful constituency that’s come to trust her.

That’s one way to look at it.
Another way is too say she cares about the environment, as we all should.

 

[basquebromance]

There is no debate. Deb Haaland should be our next Secretary of the Interior.

Simple mean tweets aint why Joe Manchin opposes Neera.....it is far more personal for him.....

but it does illustrate how the elites protect each other (of both parties) -- Neera told the truth about his CEO daughter and that was a line too far for Manchin....
