Why have no faith that Biden will be any different from Obama? Because of people in high places being who they are: "Obama Labor Secretary Tom Perez Just Joined an Anti-Union Law Firm," by- Andrew Perez, Walker Bragman

 Jacobin has the sad story - worth the time it takes to read.

They are all a cabal. A den of snakes. Of untinhibited opportunists - driven by ambitions and Mammon, no matter who gets thrown under the bus. 

As in - THIS over-ambitious climber was a Labor Secretary??? Now set to lawyer anti-Labor. Go figure. Chasing the side with money to give him. Bless Mammon.

The man who worked with Biden and Hiam Saban to shoot Kieth Ellison out of the saddle as frontrunner for DNC Chair after the Clintons blew a slam-dunk election against Trump with DWS incompetently and preferentially holding the DNC chair during the fiasco, as predecessor to Perez.

Obama, who promised CHANGE and HOPE kept all the wars going, kept Guantanamo open, continued assassinations by drone, bailed out Wall Street while letting homeowners cope, without federal help, against massive levels of home foreclosure - and - with both houses having Dem majorities, gave us his bullshit "healthcare reform" which was a sop to the private healthcare insurance industry - a/k/a Romneycare, for Christsakes; the Heritage Foundation's formulated mess that Republicans birthed, (and then turned away from once Obama pushed it rather than push a real upending of the status quo). 

Insincerity all around, but it is Washington DC after all, where citizens stormed the Capitol for wrong reasons, not because of the corruption and lies of business as usual but because Trump was so bad that even Joe Biden could beat him in balloting, something at which the Clintons with DNC in thrall failed and which, Biden being Biden, Joe without coattails, left many failing to believe Trump could have lost.

Lesser evil still being evil. The unyielding saga of Washington DC.
