‘Red line is inaction’ on infrastructure deal: Sec. Gina Raimondo | ABC News

1. 🤔

2. So since Trump left office all we have is doom and gloom with this new administration? Gas prices going up, ransomeware attacks ledt and right, meat prices going up, inflation, the administration of doom and gloom.

3. Countries are signing the 15% minimum tax agreement. Looks like the Democrats win.

5. The Obama Administration was and will always be, the worst in presidency history, when that vehicle, full of power drunks, crashed violently onto America’s God Given rights, myriads of our countrymen were injured and even killed; the Ole sundowners Joe administration is one of the wheels from that corrupt rollover still rolling away from that ACCIDENT!

6. Apparently, she doesn’t comprehend the meaning of all the “Help Wanted” signs.

7. I doubt if many here have been keeping an eye on the new Commerce Sec’y  but I can tell you what I saw yesterday blew me away at one of the most cogent, articulate, informed, smart and wide-ranging cabinet members I have seen in ANY president’s cabinet since, well, pretty much forever (long before Al Haig, let’s put it that way!)

   Raimondo caught my eye this morning with her appearance on ABC’s This Week where she fielded questions on big issues from the Infrastructure bill, the new jobs numbers and the AJP, the recent Russian cyber attacks and the upcoming summit between Biden and Vladimir Putin. 

   Please watch this clip and see if you agree with me.

   While some of you probably recall Raimondo as the last Governor of Rhode Island, did you also know she holds degrees from Harvard (magna cum laude) , Yale (J.D.) AND Oxford (Rhodes Scholar) , clerked for famed judge Kimba Wood in the Southern DIstrict of NY, opened the first venture capital fund in Rhode Island (backed by Bain Capital and Highland Cap, ran the DGA (Democratic Governors Assn).

   In addition as Treasurer of R.I., Raimondo reformed the state’s public employee pension system, enacted the bipartisan RISRA and reduced the exorbitant rate associated with payday lenders. As governor, she both cut taxes every year and removed 30% of R.I. regulations (thousands of pages), raised the state’s minimum wage to $11.50 an hour, financed the largest infrastructure program in the state’s history and made community colleges tuition free.

   You also may remember her as the co-chair of the 2020 Bloomberg campaign (no surprise there given her deep financial roots) but she (and Mike) shifted to Biden as soon as Bloomberg pulled out of the race.

   Yes, I get that there was the controversy over the rollout of the UHIP and she had some scuffs with neighboring Governor Andrew Cuomo over the 14-day quarantine for visitors coming from New York state during the early stages of Covid-19, but all in all, I found her to be a remarkably articulate, well thought out spokesperson for the new administration (far better than her wiry old predecessor, Wilbur Ross) and someone to keep an eye on moving forward.

8. For all the idiots claiming republicans are denying the unintelligible infrastructure bill because of corporate cronies, democrats receive way more from corporations as compared to republicans.

10. Stop blaming Russia for cyber attacks when it is US pimply vegan college kids.
    
    Do you ever get up in the morning and wash yourself in oil? then go boil some eggs in oil? then drink a cup of oil?
    
    Cyber attacks are the new warfare so will US weapons, vehicles and battleships now be sold as scrap metal?
    
    Humans drink water not oil, humans eat meat and veggies not gun turrets and bullets.

11. ABC news 👍👍

12. America will flail if they do not do the investment necessary. China is watching and laughing as Republicans keep obstructing the necessary infrastructure deals required to put America back on top of the world.

13. Cyber attack Russia! I’m sure the American military would have better hackers than Russia

15. Commerce Secy, please make policies allowing more Mom and Pop stores, more small business owners such as hair stylist, plumbers, etc. To Start Their own businesses instead of "going back into the labor market." THANKS.

16. there are plenty of jobs… help wanted and now hiring signs everywhere…. but people getting benefits don't want to work… lol.

    the progressives don't want to compromise at all or they would be negotiating lower costs for us tax paying citizens…. instead, they want our great grandchildren born into debt.

    no thanks.

17. Isn't one of Biden's buddies making a boatload of money on the shipment of fuel by truck since the pipeline shutdown?

18. What is right for manchin is what is right for his corporate donors and the republican agenda.

19. They wont stand for it but they will sit on it. If Biden knows so much how to deal, why is nothing happening. Action is needed, not talk.

20. ✨🇺🇸🦅TRUMP2020🦅🇺🇸✨

21. Here's the problem ….. its mostly not about the Infrastructure.

22. No mention of Joe Biden lifting sanctions on Russia after the attacks?

    Hmm I wonder why?

23. Time to disconnect Russia from swift, and enact a big package of sanctions, and freeze assets, so that putin stops playing napoleon!

24. Yours been set up by the spirit of antichrist ..to bring in the son of perdition …who has all the answers …

25. Unemployment benefits are definitely holding ppl back from working…was on it for 2 months and made 4000 more than i would have working. It was nice but its too much for too long

26. People don't get it all infrastructure "roads" etc.. is supposed to be paid by TAX money all ready being collected STATES DMV collets Counter Fee's , a sail's tax, places collect wheel taxes, there are fuel gas tax's Fed & STATE all aimed at building and maintaining Road's states even play at game collection money for 1 road multiple times example some roads have a "name, a number, a letter 3 or more designations for 1 road = money from the Federal & state government !
    How about before raising aney more taxes there is a AUDIT report on ALL FEDRAL/50 STATE/ & local government /municipal agencies !
    Actually find out why they can't pay for and operate on the money they are ALL ready collecting !
    There's also the budget game played a place gets a budget money
    If there's anything left over there next budget gets cut so they use it all and up the new budget by a percentage to get more money!!
    I am in a area where the roads SUCK but like above they Colet Property, gas, and receive FEDRAL& State money's for road maintenance!

    It is called ACCOUNTABILITY people!!!
    And they keep coming back for more&more of OUR MONEY!!!!!!!!

27. Racist “equity” is more damaging than covid and more racist than the klan.

28. The 🇺🇸 needs to stay technologically current & is currently behind the trend. Let's be the best , not one of the rest.

29. 🆎️C💯%fake news

35. I agree with Bernie Sanders and AOC because the "bipartisan" ship has sailed and Republicans have and still are playing political hardball. Why can't Democrats just do the same as well for the common good, despite what Joe Manchin, Kyrsten Sinema and Republicans think?
