From day to day, Joe Biden is allowed to feel a little more like the election winner - in view of the development of the lawsuits against the result.

The future US president has now announced a historic decision.

  • Joe Biden wants to make his government communications team all women.

  • Among the chosen are some of the faces he knows well.

  • The nominations are a clear sign of greater diversity at the top of the state.

Washington DC / Munich -

He continues to wait in vain for

a congratulation from

Donald Trump

.

But while the still incumbent US president, despite various

defeats in court

and subsequent vote counts

,

rages unwaveringly

against the legality of the

election result of November 3,

Joe Biden

is preparing

for his entry into the White House.

The time has come on January 20th.

Then the 78-year-old Democrat is accompanied by numerous women to the powerhouse in the US capital.

From his wife Jill, of course.

And

Kamala Harris

, the first African American vice president of the nation, which has been independent since 1776.

Biden has already nominated

Janet Yellen

as Treasury Secretary

for his cabinet

.

Linda Thomas-Greenfield

is to become the United States' ambassador to the United States,

Avril Haines

director of the secret services.

Dana Remus

is scheduled as the White House legal advisor.

Biden's communications team: Psaki returns to the White House to become spokeswoman

In addition, there is an all-female

communications team

that the head of state elected by more than 80 million Americans will build on.

Biden's spokeswoman is said to be

Jen Psaki

.

The

CNN

journalist with Greek and Polish roots was already

communications director and spokeswoman for the State Department

during

Barack Obama's

tenure

.

In the aftermath of the election, she conducted several briefings with journalists for the future

US president

.

He emphasized: "Communicating directly and truthfully with the people in America is one of the

most important tasks of a president

." His predecessor should certainly feel addressed.

Besides Psaki there are five other women who will

lend their voice to

the

most powerful man of the most powerful woman in the world

.

Karine Jean-Pierre is

hired

as deputy

- she comes from Martinique and is the daughter of Haitian immigrants.

Most recently she was Harris' chief of staff.

Kate Bedingfield

is

slated

to become the White House communications director - she already held this role during Biden's vice presidency.

Most recently she was his deputy

campaign manager

.

Pili Tobar is

scheduled

as Bedingfield's deputy

.

She grew up in Guatemala and, like Jean-Pierre, could warm the hearts of migrants who suffered severely under Trump.

Biden's communications team: Harris confidante was involved in impeachment proceedings against Trump

The other two women report to Harris.

Symone Sanders

, who served as an advisor on Biden's campaign team, is

slated

to become the

vice president's

spokeswoman

.

In 2015, she was still the press spokesperson for presidential candidate and namesake

Bernie Sanders

, but left his staff before the 2016 election. Like Psaki, she already worked for

CNN

.

And then there is

Ashley Etienne

, who will act as Harris' communications director.

The native Texan was already a member of the campaign team and played

an important role in the

impeachment proceedings against Trump

as interim communications director for

Nancy Pelosi

, the spokeswoman for the

House

of

Representatives

.

Probably no coincidence: Sanders and Etienne, like Harris, are

African-American

.

Another sign of significantly

more diversity

at the head of the proud nation.

President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris today announced new members of the White House staff who will serve in senior communications roles.



For the first time in history, these communications roles will be filled entirely by women.https: //t.co/SjWAWJg941

- Biden-Harris Presidential Transition (@ Transition46) November 29, 2020

Biden praised the members of his communications or

PR team

as "qualified and experienced", although many of them could even be his nieces in terms of age.

“I am proud to present the

first high-ranking communications team

in which

only women are represented

,” the former Vice President made it clear that the selection made should also be

linked to

a

message

.

The

Washington Post

also took up the apparently historical dimension of the personal

details

- this in turn brought

Kayleigh McEnany

to the scene.

Biden's communications team: Trump spokeswoman railed against Washington Post article

Trump's current press spokeswoman complained on

Twitter

that the most important positions in the current communications team are all held by women.

This also applies to Vice President

Mike Pence

, First Lady

Melania Trump

and also the wife of the second man in the state, Karen Sue Batten.

She accused the newspaper of discrediting itself and spreading “fake news”.

The

Post,

in turn, picked up the

tweet

and listed

Judd Deere, Brian Morgenstern and Devin O'Malley

as well as male members of Trump's and Penny's PR team.

It is of course subjective which posts are considered to be high-ranking.

President @realDonaldTrump already has an ALL FEMALE Senior White House Press Team.



So does @VP ...



So does @FLOTUS ...



So does @SecondLady ...



The completely DISCREDITED @washingtonpost once again reveals their blinding propagandist Fake News proclivities ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/HpP0KL8kgD

- Kayleigh McEnany (@kayleighmcenany) November 30, 2020

McEnany had to put up with a little support and a lot of

ridicule

for her attack

.

One user posted an overview of the current

communications team

and asked: “Have you ever met your team?” Another wrote: “You don't have a press team, Kayleigh.

You have a

propaganda team

.

Big difference. ”So it all looks like a classic own goal for Trump.

Has McEnany regretted her admission?
