Take heart, Rachel Levine; the Biden Administration is a great place for failing upward, so long as you can check a favored identity box.

Cruz says her nomination is part of a “steady and systematic embrace of communist China” by Biden’s handlers. It is a big plus if Raimondo gets along with Xi Jinping et al., when you consider how snug in bed Biden has been with the ChiComs.
