COMMIE COMPTROLLER? Moderate Democrats Signal Rejection of Biden’s Radical Nominee

November 29, 2021 By The Editors

Joe Biden’s pick for Comptroller of the Currency, Saule Omrova, has been opposed by a group of Democrats from more conservative states. Caroline Downey explains in National Review:

Five prominent moderate Democratic senators have vowed to reject President Biden’s nominee, Saule Omarova, for the nation’s top bank watchdog role over her aggressive approach to regulating the financial sector.

Democratic members of the Senate Banking Committee Jon Tester, Mark Warner, and Kyrsten Sinema (D., Ariz.), as well as Democratic Senators John Hickenlooper and Mark Kelly have all declared their opposition to Omarova as head of Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Biden officials still endorse Omarova, even though her confirmation is increasingly unlikely given these lawmakers’ disapproval.

“The White House continues to strongly support her historic nomination,” a White House official told Axios.

“Saule Omarova is eminently qualified for this position,” the official added. “She has been treated unfairly since her nomination with unacceptable red-baiting from Republicans like it’s the McCarthy era.”

The former law professor drew criticism from Republicans during a congressional hearing last week for her past academic works in which she advocated to “end banking as we know it.” Her position would preside over lenders holding an extremely high value of assets. Senator Kennedy grilled her over her purported praise of a number of economic practices exercised by the Soviet Union.

Some Republicans have accused Omarova of sympathizing with the idea of nationalizing the banking sectors and targeting the fossil fuel industry with greater regulation. However, Omarova clarified that the oil and gas companies comprise a “very important part of the economy.” She asserted that her previous research doesn’t reflect the way she would necessarily conduct policy if confirmed as comptroller.
