This announcement has been expected for some time.
On the Cabinet front, I didn't read the full story about the Commerce Secretary-designate, but I did notice that he started at Kellogg (where he is now CEO) some years ago driving a cereal delivery van. This is a tremendous success story for which he deserves great credit, regardless of his or our political affiliations.

I hear he was tabbed for Commerce from Kellogg because of his propensity to answer questions about the economy by saying "It's grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat!"

Negotiates trade agreements? Promotes US trade & tourism abroad? Sets trade policy? Eats a lot of Cornflakes?
