The only ones I know of his picks are Janet Yellen, Keisha Bottoms and Susan Rice. I think they are highly qualified. The rest appear to be Obama second string officials.
Janet Yellen was cited for leaking deliberations of the FOMC to Wall Street firms and hedge funds. She was the chair during Bernanke's taper program and some of the rate increases. She may take over the Treasury Cash Balance from the Trump administration which is flooding the markets with 1.2 trillion dollars in cash over 4 to 8 months. One money printer replaces another.
Susan Rice was the lead person for the wars in Libya and Syria. The CIA operation to funnel arms and terrorists to Syria through the Benghazi embassy annex and the nearby armories operated by allied governments in the MENA was exposed under her watch. The decision to launch a covert war in Libya occurred after Libya's disarmament and normalization of relations with the government. The Trump administration later carried over the task of taking over Syrian territory from ISIS which was acting as a placeholder for US interests in Syria.
I take the OP's fears of an extreme left-wing Biden administration as seriously as I take the attacks of the progressives (another word for liberals who like to tell other liberals they suck) on Neera Tanden because they say she is the enemy of single-payer.
Yet. Give Corn Pop some time, Hunter will find an empty chair to fill. The markets only care about Treasury and Fed appointments, and for those he has picked insiders who will keep the gears turning.
Yeah, maybe Hunter can pick up where Jared left off on peace in the Middle East.

The only people who think Single-Payer is a solution are people who are not very good at arithmetic.
Each person's premium for Single-Payer health care is in the neighborhood of $12,000 per year. A family of four would see a premium bill of about $48,000.

That's silly. Everyone I know is in the top marginal tax bracket - me included. My single largest annual expense is my Federal Income Tax obligation.
Mine is state and local taxes. I pay 10% in property taxes alone. It is expensive being middle class and having all these Dems fighting for you lol or rather giving themselves fat pensions and benefits at taxpayer expense.
The problem with passenger rail is it goes from point A to point B.
I'm never in point A and I don't wish to go to point B.
Aside from that, its a wonderful idea.
Yes indeed, an Amtrak ticket from Fort Worth to Denver goes through Chicago and the trip takes two days.
