The qualitative difference from the prior Administration is like going from a developmentally disabled squirrel with a head injury to Albert Einstein.

Thank you, Mr. Secretary Blinken, for speaking into the untold suffering of the people of Tigray. Soldiers from Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia, and drones UAE unleashed on innocent children, women, and the elderly.  Stop the genocide! Demand free access of aid and journalist to the region and withdrawal of Eritrean troops from Tigray.

Too many people in the same family in government is sick form of nepotism.

We were pleased at the breadth and depth of knowledge of nominee Anthony Blinken for US Secretary of State, and believe he will be a critical confidante at the Biden US Cabinet. However, we would appreciate that the US Secretary of State, which also leads in diverse business and humanitarian domains, assumes a global leadership position that all Americans will be proud of!

This man is a warmonger and a war-criminal. He should be in prison along with Victoria Nuland.

His grandfather is from Ukraine and his very close relative with the same last name was just appointed on a high ranking position in Russian government! It is so horrible!!!!
