Senator Tom Cotton, Republican of Arkansas, rarely minces words. In fact, we doubt he does any mincing at all. He is an up and comer and would likely make a fine president. He proves that by his background and stand on issues.
The Biden choice of hard left wing Neera Tanden to go to the Office of Management and Budget is a case in point. He doesn’t want this Bolshevik having such a vital hand in personnel or budgets. He is spot on. She has a history of tweets that make the president’s tweets look like the soul of discretion. Even Nikki Haley sees a sitting duck.
Biden’s pick for budget chief is Neera Tanden. Tanden is one of the architects of ObamaCare, has been described as a Clinton loyalist for her years of service to Hillary Clinton & spent years leading a liberal think tank where she oversaw proposals like “Medicare Extra for All.”

FNC: “Neera Tanden has ‘no chance of being confirmed’ as head of the White House budget office in the incoming Biden administration, Sen. Tom Cotton said on Wednesday. ‘The problem with Neera Tanden is not so much her tweets, it’s her radical liberal ideas. This is a woman who wants Congress to hold up coronavirus relief for the American people so we can give checks to illegal immigrants. There is no chance Neera Tanden will be confirmed. She might as well step aside, or, Joe Biden might as well withdraw her and go back to the drawing board…Janet Yellen helped preside over a low growth stagnant economy that didn’t create the kind of jobs and wages that working-class Americans need. It’s just another example of how Joe Biden is going back to the Obama-Biden era, where we’re going to have more taxes and more regulations, not have a government that stands with and stands beside the American people, but rather one that tries to ride the back of the American people with one-size-fits-all policies coming from Washington.’ ”
Neera Tanden, in 2017 trashed the Michelle Obama catchphrase “when they go low, we go high,” by tweeting that “going high doesn’t f**king work.” Actually, she’s quite correct. So there’s that.

Tanden, the honchette at the Center for American Progress, deleted over 1,000 of her tweets, including a bunch that were rabidly critical of the Republican senators she will need for confirmation. The tweet mocking the Michelle Obama line is no longer on her timeline – but it was saved on the Internet archive “Wayback Machine.” Sherman and Mr. Peabody were pleased at this development.
