I am regularly in touch with a variety of people at the USDA, and I can say that, under Biden, there was a huge morale boost,” says Hoefner. “People felt once again that they were able to address climate change and workers’ issues. They felt like the work they were doing is worthwhile.” I would expect DC employees to say that. I am a USDA employee. Rather than take a lobbyist’s opinion as fact to support their preference for Harris, I’d refer you to the annual “Best Places to work in Fed Gov.” the overall engagement/satisfaction score has stayed in high 50%-mid 60%
For almost 20 years. Quartriles compared to other large Fed agencies that year, based on Fed employee viewpoint surveys. The high quartile were Trump’s 1st 2 years before MRP Undersecretary changed telework policy around 2018 (tanked). I’m not a Trump supporter, but he’s setting opinion on a small sample size.

The fact is that Harris was not on any primary ballot, therefore received zero votes to be the Dem presidential candidate. Nancy Pelosi said she “did what she had to do” in pushing Biden out of the race. VPs are selected by the Presidential candidate, not voted on in a primary. Biden could’ve replaced Harris as VP at the Convention of he’d wanted to. It is not a democratic process if a Presidential candidate is selected without any citizen votes. I can cite all the sources you like, but any 5th grade Civics textbook will also provide one that information.

If Trump put tarifs on China, China WILL RETALIATE by puting tarifs on our agricultural exportations. You don t need a degree to understand that…
