Report: Biden’s Defense Secretary, National Security Team, Would Be Obama Alums
Joe Biden’s confidants are privately discussing potential cabinet members in his White House, including a slate of Obama alums in what they are calling a “Return to Normal,” according to a
report on “Axios on HBO.”
Former Secretary of State John Kerry — who oversaw the negotiating of the Iran nuclear deal — “would love to take a new Cabinet position devoted to climate change,” or could return as secretary of state, according to the report.
Former National Security Advisor Susan Rice — who pushed for the U.S. intervention in Libya in 2011 and who erroneously claimed the September 11, 2012, Benghazi attack was prompted by an anti-Islam video — “is another option for State,” it said.
Former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates — who was fired for refusing to implement President Trump’s 2017 travel ban and was involved in the FBI’s investigation of former Trump National Security Advisor Michael Flynn — “would be a leading contender for attorney general.”
