The list primarily features\u200d established\u2062 figures from Democratic politics. Notably, Delaware Senator\u2062 Chris Coons \u200dis being\u2064 considered for Secretary of State, alongside CIA Director Bill Burns and National Security Adviser Jake \u200cSullivan. For the\u2062 U.S. Ambassador \u200bto the United Nations, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is a top contender. Eric Holder, former Attorney General, is reportedly a leading candidate for \u2064Chief of \u200cStaff, while Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo may oversee the Treasury Department. Other possible appointments include\u2064 former Senator Doug Jones as Attorney General, investment banker Ray McGuire for Commerce Secretary, and current staffers Phil Gordon\u2064 and Brian\u200d Fallon for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jake-sullivan-defends-sending-of-cluster-munitions-not-going-to-leave-ukraine-defenseless\/\" title=\"Jake Sullivan justifies sending cluster munitions to Ukraine, stating that it is necessary to ensure their defense.\">national security \u2064adviser<\/a> and White House press secretary, respectively. Michigan Governor\u200d Gretchen Whitmer is also mentioned\u2064 as a\u2063 potential \u2063appointee. \u2063The \u200breport suggests that Harris&#8217;s \u2062administration would pursue\u200c a strongly leftist agenda.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> <script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Vice President Kamala Harris has reportedly narrowed down her proposed cabinet choices to a select few.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately for Americans everywhere, many of these names are instantly recognizable as longtime players in Democrat party politics.<\/p>\n<p>The potential appointments have been revealed in a report from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2024\/08\/07\/kamala-harris-cabinet-election\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Axios<\/a>. Citing multiple sources, the report lists several preliminary choices for top White House positions.<\/p>\n<p>The Aug. 7 report notes the choices consist mostly of veterans of previous Democratic positions.<\/p>\n<p>For her secretary of state, the report claims Harris has tapped Delaware Sen.

Regrettably for the American public, many of these individuals are well-known figures in Democratic party politics. Axios has disclosed these potential appointments in a report that references various sources, outlining several initial choices for key White House roles. According to the August 7 report, most of the selections are seasoned veterans from previous Democratic administrations. For the position of Secretary of State, it is suggested that Harris has chosen Delaware Senator Chris Coons, who has previously proposed conditioning aid to Israel.<\/p>\n<p>This appointment would grant Coons significant influence in implementing Harris&#8217;s vision for the country. The report also mentions CIA Director Bill Burns and current National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan as contenders for the Secretary of State position. Another familiar name is Pete Buttigieg, currently serving as Transportation Secretary under President Joe Biden; he is being considered for U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations according to Axios. Despite concerns about his management of national infrastructure following several challenging years, this role would keep him close to influential figures for at least another four years.<\/p>\n<p>Eric Holder, who was Attorney General during Barack Obama&#8217;s presidency and is now collaborating with Harris&#8217;s campaign, reportedly stands out as a leading candidate for Chief of Staff. His history advocating for leftist policies appears set to be rewarded with this powerful position that would provide him direct access to Harris and considerable authority over presidential priorities.<\/p>\n<p>Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo\u2014once seen as a top contender when Harris was selecting her running mate\u2014is now being considered for Treasury Secretary. For Attorney General, former Senator Doug Jones is under consideration; he lost his seat in Alabama in 2020 when Republican Tommy Tuberville won it.<\/p>\n<p>Other names mentioned include Ray McGuire from an investment bank as a potential Commerce Secretary and two current staffers moving into prominent White House positions: Phil Gordon could be elevated from National Security Adviser while Brian Fallon might become White House Press Secretary. Additionally, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer may also secure a role within Harris\u2019s administration.<\/p>\n<p>While none of these appointments are finalized and hinge on Harris winning in November, early indications suggest her administration would lean heavily leftward with little room for alternative perspectives<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2328314,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/holder-harris-and-joe.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[38798,38797,35323],"class_list":["post-2328313","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-controversial-democrats","tag-eric-holder","tag-harris-administration"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/holder-harris-and-joe.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2328313","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2328313"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2328313\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2328314"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2328313"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2328313"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2328313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
