NANTUCKET, Mass. (AP) — President Joe Biden announced Wednesday that he is nominating Shalanda Young to lead the White House budget office and Nani Coloretti to serve as Young’s deputy.

If confirmed by the Senate, Young would be the first Black woman to lead the Office of Management and Budget while Coloretti, who is Filipino American, would become one of the highest-ranking Asian Americans in the Biden administration.

It would be the first time that two women of color will lead the agency, which helps the president develop an annual budget and monitors how tax dollars are spent.

Young has served as acting director of the office for much of the year. Biden’s first nominee for the director’s position, Neera Tanden, faced bipartisan criticism for her previous attacks on lawmakers, and she ultimately withdrew from consideration.

> So the party that claims the other side hires and judges by skin color, hires and judges by skin color.

To discover what the Left is doing, merely find out what they accuse the Right of doing.

I guess the concept of picking someone on their merits is just to much for the racist pigs.

“ Woman of color, freakin’ ridiculous description. What color is she, blue? Green? Muave? So what is everyone else? Colorless?”

They have brown hair and brown eyes as opposed to the caucasian women with their colorless blue, grey, hazel, or green eyes, and their blonde or auburn or red hair

Which is an indicator that many federal government departments could be greatly reduced or closed for good.

Will this work out as well as picking a VP using the same criteria?

Skin color and what's between your legs are the most important qualifications for a job today.

Our downward spiral down the toilet accelerates.

Maybe that's why these two guys are smiling?

“...joe must have caught that movie hidden figures...”

LOL! My very first thought, too!

If they’re as smart as those women, I have NO problem with it. If they are just AA placeholders, then I gotta vote NO. :(

Black is the darkest color, and something we call an achromatic color, meaning it has no hue.

Depending on who you ask, you will get a different answer to the question “Is black a color?”.

If you ask a scientist, the answer will probably be no, since it will be based in physics.

So, I guess the headline should read:

Biden picks women of no color to lead White House budget office

...food for thought
