1. If they've been

confirmed once would they not need to be confirmed again for the same positions?

[cwydro]

2. I think I'll wait until Biden is president before I worry about this.

[LakeArenal]

3. Hoping for a lot more change than that.

With people like Schiff and Pete Or Porter or Beto Or Klobuchar or Franken or Abrams or Booker or Castro or lots of folks.

[SheltieLover]

6. All of the above!

Schiff for AG for sure!

[LakeArenal]

14. Hey SL, I wanted to thank you for walking this rocky trail with me the last few months.

I hope we can start enjoying our days more now.

Yours in Biden ❣️🇺🇸❣️

4. Most of those were confirmed by a Democratic Senate

I would not expect Mitch to be so accommodating. That said, I doubt he'll put up much fuss over most of Biden's nominations because it's just not worth the trouble it would cause. And frankly, most of the appointees will not be able to do a whole lot that Biden couldn't do on his own were the positions not filled.

I expect some contention over AG, SoS, and possibly OMB.

9. Doug Jones as AG

That would be tough to stop a former Senator. That could easily blow up in McConnell's face. I also suspect, after a few days with Tuberville, the GOP Senators will be wishing Jones was back as a Senator.

[joshcryer]

5. Would love Hillary Clinton back as SoS.

[Vdizzle]

7. That would be awesome. It would really piss off the trumpsters!

They would be yelling lock her up... at the same time, the Cheeto will be fighting to stay out of jail himself!

[rzemanfl]

8. But her emails! (The Devil made me do that).

[exboyfil]

11. Susan Rice

Maybe Clinton as UN Ambassador or Ambassador to one of our key allies (God knows we need to repair some relationships).

[PTWB]

10. Meaningless

Different time, different place, different senate.

[Under The Radar]

12. Mike Espy - Sec of Agri

[marybourg]

13. Aging out. Move on.

[Brother Buzz]

15. High marks for thinking outside the box

But I suspect it doesn't work that way. But hey, what do I know.
