While the outcome of the 2020 presidential election is still being litigated in the courts, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are hard at work creating their potential cabinet, which so far contains a large number of Obama administration retreads and people of questionable competence and integrity.

October night, I was getting ready to shut off my computer and head to bed when I got a message from my friend and fellow RedStater, Jennifer … VanLaar, asking me to look at a document she had just received. … Neither VanLaar nor I were ready to gamble our credibility on the contents of the report. …

As we’ve covered thoroughly at RedState, Congress passed a pork-filled monstrosity Monday and called it COVID relief, believing that a $600 check would satiate most Americans and keep them from looking deeper into the bill’s contents.
