All of Joe Biden’s top national security picks are Obama loyalists from the last Democrat administration. Many believe the next four years will essentially be Obama’s third term. All the old swamp creatures are coming back to the White House.
Obama gets his third term in office
Look at all these familiar faces in Joe Biden’s cabinet. Former Secretary of State John Kerry is now back as Biden’s international climate czar. Former Deputy Secretary of State Tony Blinken is back as the nominee for secretary of state.
Former National Security Adviser to the Vice President Jake Sullivan is coming back as Biden’s national security adviser. Former Deputy National Security Adviser Avril Haines is coming back as the nominee for director of national intelligence.
Former Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs Linda Thomas-Greenfield is coming back as Biden’s U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Former Central Command Commander Army Gen. (Ret.) Lloyd Austin has been nominated to become Biden’s defense secretary.
“It’s the same kind of administrators that Obama had when [Biden] was with the Obama administration,” @MAGAindex tells Newsmax TV.

Biden packs his cabinet with swamp creatures
Former National Security Adviser Susan Rice is back serving in a domestic policy capacity. Former White House Chief of Staff and former Deputy National Security Adviser Denis McDonough is Joe Biden’s pick to run the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Axios reported this week that former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power may be making a comeback as well. In a hilarious slip up, CNN reporter Jeff Zeleny called Joe Biden “Joebama” before correcting himself.
What can Americans expect for the next four years under Joe Biden’s administration? More foreign wars? The Obama administration engaged in two new wars in Libya and Yemen. It withdrew then resent troops to Iraq to fight the Islamic State. The Obama administration also continued the war in Afghanistan, despite pledging to end it.
“I think right now, what we’re looking at is a Biden administration that’s going to go right into Obama 2.0,” said Hal Lambert, founder and CEO of Point Bridge Capital and longtime Republican donor, on Newsmax. “They’re there, quite frankly as I’ve seen other people say, to manage the decline of the United States. It’s the same kind of administrators that Obama had. We’re looking at an Obama 2.0.”
