A few so called liberals AKA posers might think otherwise but I'm glad to get the seal of approval from Robert Reich.

Biden has been making excellent choices so far. Tanden is always someone I enjoy listening to as well. She has such a great laugh.

But I take comfort in knowing your counsel and advice will continue to be valued by the Biden administration. Keep fighting the good fight.

to do some of his white board talks on TV for the public. He knows how to present economics in ways that make sense to everyone rather than obtuse or excessively theoretical.

Maybe he and Katie Porter could do a white board collaboration.....

If Robert's happy, I sure as hell am happy.......

that a strong progressive voice like Reich's is endorsing these appointments. I was having some worries about how centrist Biden's appointments might be, and I don't know most of these folks. But I do know Reich, and I respect his judgment, so I was glad to read this.

I have more confidence in Biden than I'll ever have in Reich.

BTW Did Reich ever endorse Biden?
