Biden recalls Trump's response to Charlottesville: "That's literally why I ran. There's no more important and heartfelt effort on my part than restoring, restoring the independence and integrity of our Justice Department." — PolitiTweet.org

@jmartNYT @tylerpager (There will be AAPIs in the cabinet, though: Kamala Harris, for one. Plus Biden's picks for OMB, Neera Tanden, and USTR, Katherine Tai. Just not as the secretary of a department, a distinction that AAPI advocates have made, which is why I'm noting it.) — PolitiTweet.org

@jmartNYT @tylerpager With picks this week for attorney general, commerce secretary and labor secretary, Biden has now selected nominees for all cabinet-level positions.
