Breitbart ^ | 2 Mar 2021 | Wendell Husebo

Posted on 03/02/2021 7:24:53 PM PST by Rummyfan

Neera Tanden withdrew her nomination for Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Tuesday evening.

In a statement, Tanden wrote:

Dear President Biden,

I am writing to you to withdraw my nomination for Director of the Office of Management and Budget. It has been an honor of a lifetime to be considered for this role and for the faith placed in me. I appreciate how hard you and your team at the White House has worked to win my confirmation. Unfortunately, it now seems clear that there is no path forward to gain confirmation, and I do not want continued consideration of my nomination to be a distraction from your other priorities.I am incredibly grateful for your leadership on behalf of the American people and for your agenda that will make such a transformative difference in people’s lives.

Sincerely,

Neera Tanden

The White House confirmed the withdrawal.

Hooray. A small victory but a victory nonetheless. She was totally unqualified both professionally and in temperament.

Thank you Joe Manchin. Have you seen how awful Xavier Becerra and some of the other nominees are?

WTF is it with Indians?

They do well here

I think it’s skin envy.....that simple ....75%

Kind of like another minority (religious)that loves its leftism despite being usually successful....and lofty IQ means

It’s anti pluralism resentment of the host

It’s effed up

And it hurts....and it hurts them when there is reprisal

Did President Trump suffer any such defeats? I don’t recall any nominees being especially controversial and withdrawing from consideration.

Indians were raised of a strict diet of leftist bull crap both here and in India.

Probably another one brought here on some H1B or student visa and stayed.

They mostly think they are superior to the rest of the world. They can all take their DESI crap and get the eff back to India.

Like another religious minority indeed, they think they are the chosen people. Unlike that other religious minority, they definitely are not.

Has Joe Manchin seen how awful Biden’s nom——Democrap has-been Xavier Becerra——is?

Becerra has yet to answer for his outrageous conduct as a Congressman and House Democratic Caucus Chair.

As California’s top law enforcer, Cong Becerra knew, or should have known, US House policies are codified by law.
<><> House members are not allowed to accept services from people not on their payroll
<><> House employees are not permitted to log onto servers of members for whom they do not work.
<><> No scenario exists where the Awan clan’s access was even remotely appropriate.
<><> Many House set-ups were “thin clients” (computers optimized for establishing remote connections w/ servers based elsewhere).

In 2016, the Pakistani Awan clan (suspected of being spies) worked as numerous House Democrats’ ITs
and used Becerra’s Democratic Caucus computers in anomalous ways:
<><> Authorities say Becerra’s entire Democratic Caucus server physically disappeared while being monitored by L/E.
<><> The Awans were using the House Democratic Caucus as their central service warehouse.
<><> The Awan clan collectively logged onto Becerra’s Caucus system 5,735 times, some 27 times per day
<><> Falsely logging onto Becerra’s laptop as system administrators.
<><> Changing their identities.
<><> Logging onto Cong Becerra’s server using 17 different user account credentials
<><> Some credentials the Paki’s used belonged to House Democrats.
<><> The Pakis did no IT work for 9 of the 17 offices to which these user accounts belonged.
<><> Investigations found “possible storage of sensitive House information” outside the House.
<><> Dropbox was installed on two Democratic Caucus computers used by the suspects.
<><> Two user accounts had thousands of files in their Dropbox folder on each computer.
<><> Using Dropbox is against House rules because it uploads files offsite.
<><> The Wash/Po reported “Based on the file names, some of the information is likely sensitive.”
<><> House computer set-ups were found to be portals to an outside computer.
<><> Awans were using terminal servers from a computer in a different location.
<><> Virtual Private Networks can make a server’s hard drive appear to be local to a computer.
<><> Remote sessions remained active for months at a time.
<><> Data was always out of [the members’] possession
<><> Other Democrat offices were accessed in total less than 60 times.
<><> The pattern of login activity suggests steps were taken to conceal the Pakis’ suspect activity.
<><> The aggregation of multiple members’ data would mean all that data was taken when the Paki’s absconded.

She was totally unqualified both professionally and in temperament.

Since when has that been an impediment for a cabinet post?
