Leaks about cabinet positions are often false. Someone who wants a job leaks that they're under consideration when they're not, etc. Feel free to loudly push back whenever a bad name leaks. But don't assume Biden is behind that bad name. Most of these cabinet leaks are bullshit.
Remember the nonstop false leaks about Biden's running mate? Same thing with the cabinet. The media knows it won't face any penalty for publishing a cabinet leak from a sketchy source, because when it ends up being someone else, the public will just assume Biden changed his mind.
And yes, sometimes an administration leaks a name in order to take the public's temperature on that name. Like I said, feel free to loudly push back, just to leave no doubt.
But keep in mind that if a pick is definitely happening, there would be no reason at all for Biden or the pick to leak it.
For instance, Biden says he's already picked State and Treasury. Accordingly, there have been no leaks about those positions.
Leaks are iffy by definition.
