    One of two things. Either this person is fully qualified for the position and their gender has no influence on how they do their perform it! Or, total failure!

    That's all right. Biden is throwing peanuts to the Cultural Marxist crowd so they feel like they get some reward for voting for an establishment Democrat over Trump.

    Assistant Secretary reports in to the Secretary who reports to Biden.

    Xavier Becerra has been tapped for Secretary of Health. He has no medical training or background, much less a medical degree, but he is a political climber and a huge activist for Planned Parenthood. Levine will report to Becerra.

    Biden's pick of Becerra takes the place of Trump pick, Sec. of Health Alex Azar who most people will recognize:

    Off the top of their head, can anyone call the current Assistant Sec. of Health by name???? You probably recognize the face, but how important is Assistant Secretary?

    Levine is replacing Trump's pick, "What's his face."

    The pick is Democrats' virtue signalling performance art. I wouldn't worry about it.

    I have to agree with you on that. Betsey Wetsey was one of the least qualified of all of Trump's gebonees.

    As far as a real discussion about our collective health(and I'm not stickler for it.), we just have to make better choices. And the coronavirus restrictions aren't helping us any. I still want to buy a treadmill, so I can get some serious running and cardio work in. It'd be easier if we could safely go to gyms and such. But it takes a village(it's not the comment that's bad, it's the implication that the village must be led by the village chief, instead of self-will.)

    I do not like what that nominee did to " himself" but why attack "his" child??

    Remember when some JO fringe "media" gaboonka said not so nice things about the Trumps youngest child? That was wrong and stupid to attack the anyone's child. Wrong is wrong.

    Christians persecuted Jews for 2000 years, culminating in the holocaust, now looks like the Christians are picking on someone else and pretending to of been friends to the Jews, very revealing!

    Levine was in charge of Pennsylvania's Covid response and people were not happy with her performance.

    This is mildly amusing...

    If you're a screw up in your previous position, you may have a real shot of making it into the Biden administration, especially if your outward physical appearance is a "bonus" job qualifier. lol

    partisans doing the evil that partisans do have no bearing on performance, that error has been rectified.

    LOL! After foisting Dr. Atlas on us to justify Trump's "herd identity" covid response, the Trump fans are in no position to complain.

    Now this is a perfectly valid reason to criticize the pick. I'd be interested to find out why people had a problem with her job performance in Pennsylvania. I hope that some day the GOP goes back to complaining about actual issues, rather than ginning up outrage over things that are essentially meaningless.

    Yeah. It’s generally considered polite to refer to people by their preferred pronouns.

    I would base it more on her professional credentials.

    As Americans we ought to complain. "Meet the old boss, same as the new boss. The new boss just likes to pick people that's more endearing, not necessarily better than the old boss."

    Translation: Trumpists still have a lot of growing up to do . . . "especially the males" (in your own words) . . . for some reason. Glad we cleared that up.

    In Pennsylvania, Levine pulled his mother out of a nursing home while ordering hospitals to release Covid-positive patients into general residence in nursing homes. Public outrage and demands for Levine's resignation were bipartisan.

    BTW - Why does your avatar say you are "Banned"? Asking for a friend. :)

    I kind of prefer normal people myself, and it is not normal.
