I can’t honestly say l know much about her or if she’s a good fit for the gig. Was there someone nominated or suggested for Biden’s Interior secretary who you liked better, and if so why? I just read this one article. Seems like she’ll play a significant role with the federal govts role with native American tribes, and it’s reasonable to think she may excel in that aspect of the job.

I’m not certain if there were better qualified candidates or not, but hiring individuals based on their skin color or gender alone is simply unethical.

But are they the best person for the job?
