President-elect Joe Biden has selected Ron Klain to be his White House chief of staff, several people with knowledge of the matter told The New York Times. Klain is a lawyer who served as “Ebola czar” during former President Barack Obama’s second term, leading efforts to guide the country through an outbreak of the disease. In the late 1980s, after graduating from Harvard Law, Klain went to work for Biden, then a senator representing Delaware, and they have remained close confidants ever since.Biden could publicly name Klain as his chief of staff as early as Thursday morning. The president-elect is expected to announce several top White House staffers in the next few days, but advisers say he likely won’t share his Cabinet picks until closer to Thanksgiving.More stories from theweek.com Ivanka Trump may have incidentally undermined part of the Trump world’s election argument Biden’s Pennsylvania lead is now big enough to avoid an automatic recount A record 145,835 new coronavirus cases reported in U.S. on Wednesday
