YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Progressives are not happy with Hillary Clinton’s transition team chief. Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“Former Interior Secretary Ken Salazar will serve as the official chair of Hillary Clinton’s transition team, the campaign announced today.

The transition team’s role is to start planning for how a candidate will actually do the job of president if she wins. Starting months before the election, they lay the groundwork for key decisions about executive branch appointments, outreach to Congress, and legislative priorities.

To an extent, of course, nothing can be truly decided until the candidate herself has time to focus full-time on governing rather than campaigning. But the staff work does a great deal to shape the options the president-elect has. Consequently, the candidate’s decisions about who should shape those options is an important indication of where she wants to go.

Alongside Salazar there will be a group of four co-chairs — Neera Tanden, Maggie Williams, Tom Donilon, and Jennifer Granholm — as well as an initial team of two staffers, Ed Meier and Ann O’Leary. Heather Boushey has been tapped to serve as chief economist.”
