He is a classic example of everything Pompeo, Trump's 1st director, was NOT.

[usmcforever]

Wow! We are getting qualified people to run our institutions. Refreshing. After Trump we need to troubleshoot all these agencies. Well done

[JoeZamecki]

We need the 25th Amendment invoked NOW. We cannot afford to underestimate the danger of Trump and his fans ever again.

Melania to her divorce lawyers: *Stand Back And Stand By* .

[Joy-wgnd]

Burns' first job is to investigate Trump and his Trumpeteers.

[mateowey]

Idk about any of you, but isn't it nice to have a president who hires candidates that are QUALIFIED for the job!!!! And not people without experience who only got the job because they pledge allegiance to trump 🙄 🤣 !!

[APackard]

A Real President that can actually think, read and not be PUTIN'S EMPLOYEE!

[equalityforall]

President Biden's cabinet is incredible.

[treyvon]

Get us some good people for a change from Trump and his presidency

[allnitelemonade]

Trump in drive-thru:
“You want fries with that?”
“that’s a tough question. You didn’t ask Biden if he wanted fries. You’re a fake cashier. I’m Done here”

[SG-rvjo]

Joe--It's time that Non-voter political contributions be outlawed. Corporations are not citizens and should not have free speech--Corporations are not WE THE PEOPLE. Each citizen should have only one vote--Corporations and business organizations have no right to vote.

[montymiller]

the last time there was a rebellion in this country it didnt go well for the rebels either did it

[spaceman]

All the alphabet boys need to work together to get all these PrOuD bOyS

[bradjones]

Why does Joe always cut Mika off like that? 😅

[judyhenley]

What a Change from "the swamp".

[unknownpresident]

Burns first job is to water board Pompeo, for 💯 days, then ask if he knows where the pee pee tape is hiding ..

[danasleeperOT]

Thank you Mr President, We Stand with you!!! Swamp scum squirming trying not to drown in their evil muck!!!

[joannassif]

Will Mr.Burns find out what
Pompeo did ???

[reddrago]

I cant think of a single person more experienced for such as a position, I'm glad Bill Burns years of diplomacy and service will be rewarded again and that President Biden made another great choice for this country.
