The Owls' Nest

Chris Hayes, on his MSNBC program "All In," interviewed Bernie Sanders. Talking about Trump's appointment of plutocrats (drain the swamp?), he displayed the following table:

Betsy DeVos, Education Secretary, $5.1 billion
Wilbur Ross, Commerce Secretary, $2.9 billion
Todd Ricketts, Deputy Commerce Secretary, $1 billion
Steve Mnuchin, Treasury Secretary, $40 million
Elaine Chao, Transportation Secretary, $22.8 million
Tom Price, Health and Human Services Secretary, $13.6 million


Sanders expressed shock that poor people like Mnuchin, Chao, and Price could make it into the Cabinet.
