    I find the Becerra nomination sort of puzzling, but since we've seen reporting that Gina Raimondo was the top choice for HHS before she withdrew, I don't think @DouthatNYT is right to infer so much about the Admin's intentions from his nomination.https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/08/opinion/biden-xavier-becerra-hhs.html?smid=tw-share …

        Biden calls his HHS nominee Xavier “Bach-er-ia” before quickly correcting his pronunciation. (Becerra was not Biden’s first choice for health sec)

        Culture war would have been Becerra as AG.

        I wonder what the appropriate way to talk about some of the Biden cabinet nods is where we recognize these people as extremely accomplished and decent picks, while acknowledging some were meant to make coalition groups happy rather than being Biden’s top choice

        How about acknowledging that all of Biden's picks were on his short lists? How about stop acting like these are diversity picks? It's amazing how many qualified diverse candidates there are when the field expands beyond the default choice even if they are mediocre.

        It’s all retrofitted around Blinken at state (announced first) and Jones at justice (announced last)

        I don't know how many Douthat handwringing columns about comity in the Biden era I'll be able to read before combusting in light of what we've been through for 4 years from his side
