13. Yeah - Tony Blinken Seemed to Come Out of Nowhere

I was hoping for Barack Obama being Secretary of State - he has a multicultural, multinational background, is savvy about foreign affairs, and is extremely well liked around the world.

[wendyb-NC]

14. That sounds so good.

What a breath of fresh air.

[BobTheSubgenius]

16. A fantastic choice.

I just read a short synopsis of his career, and I don't know how President Biden could have done better.

[sandensea]

17. The man exudes thoughtfulness, decency, and knowledge

Can you imagine Bumbeo trying this?

"What's the UN building?"

"It's an ugly commie block I wish we could bomb, Grover!"

"And what are refugees?"

"They're ugly brown people I wish would stay the fuck home - or I'll bomb'em!"

"We at Sesame Street are all different - but in other ways we're a lot the same!"

"Yeah, sounds like riff-raff. Well, we can't all be white."

[peggysue2]

19. Okay!

Blinken has won my vote. If he's good on Sesame Street? He's good for me.

Can you imagine Mike Pompeo doing a segment like this?

Not really.

[DFW]

20. That segment alone

It should be grounds enough to demand an apology from Tlaib Rashida

[Cha]

21. An intelligent humanitarian after

4 years of the opposite..

So happy this is coming for Us!:cande:

[calimary]

23. This is pretty doggone cute, I must say!

Knowing that Blinken will be America's new Secretary of State ...

Mongo impressed! And VERRRRRRY PLEASED!!!
