Joe Biden has nominated three people to the board of the Federal Reserve in what would usher in the most diverse group in the Fed's history - and the most woke.

The president is intent on nominating a white woman, Sarah Bloom Raskin; a black woman, Lisa Cook; and a black man, Philip Jefferson.

If they are confirmed to their posts, the seven-person Fed board would have four women, one black man and two white men - the most diverse team in the Fed's 108 years of existence.

Yeah, that’s what the Country needs. More record diversity hiring because it always works out so well!

I don’t care what color they are or what “Gender” they are.

I care more about what politics they believe in.

Raskin is anti-fossil fuel wants to deny loans to oil companies, pro environmental issues especially climate change - neither knows nor cares anything about banks, banking, or bank regulations.

This is Brandon’s next step in destroying the USA. Also a good argument for getting rid of the Fed, as we have done several times in the past.

Biden and his Marxist handlers are committed to doing as much damage to the American economy as possible before they are run out of office.

Don’t know about the other two but Raskin is a witch and a space cadet.
