President Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is under fire as Republicans in the Senate unify against him and Democrats remain uncertain if they will be able to cobble together enough votes to secure confirmation.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), meanwhile, is launching new television ads in both New Hampshire and Georgia against the Biden HHS nominee and California Attorney General Xavier Becerra where Democrat Sens. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) and Raphael Warnock (D-GA) face tough reelection bids in battleground states in 2022.

This guy Backaria is bad news. He told reporters that when he was a poor child in Los Angeles his family was denied entry into restaurants. He described how they went into a restaurant and saw a sign the said “No dos or Mexicans allowed inside.” Of course those California reporters reported the story as the gospel truth.

What was the name of the restaurant? What year did this happen? In which part of Los Angeles did this occur? I grew up in Los Angeles and I am calling this story B.S.

Where are the ads that should show an out of work pipeline worker, telling his wife he they are broke, their dreams for their kids’ college is gone as is their insurance. Run that in battleground states. Run it now!

Good idea. We need ads against all of Biden’s major crap executive orders, the horrible legislation he’s promoting and his appointees. Trump waited too long to really get his ads going during the campaign. Ads definitely aren’t everything, but when the Dems have overwhelming control over the media, we have to do whatever we can to get our message out to a larger audience and as soon as possible before the Dems solidify false narratives.

Those signs were last used in 1875 about the Irish. Becerra was born in 58 so this incident would be say 1965 at the earliest. While I am sure there was discrimination against Mexicans in LA back then, to post such a sign would have brought quick legal response and public disgrace.

When you’re a Congressman under subpoena to testify about an illegal secret server you set up a good way to get out of it is move to California and become Attorney General of the state.

Caught giving cops a fake server, Xavier Becerra clams up
By Monica Showalter

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/09/caught_giving_cops_a_fake_server_xavier_becerra_clams_up.html

California’s illegal alien-supporting attorney general, Xavier Becerra, has been curiously silent about that fake server he handed over to cops to obstruct their Imran Awan investigation, according to a new report from the Daily Caller. The broader scandal was outlined in this piece by Thomas Lifson yesterday.

On Jan. 24, 2017, Becerra vacated his congressional seat to become California’s attorney general. “He wanted to wipe his server, and we [a ‘senior official’] brought to his attention it was under investigation. The light-off was we asked for an image of the server, and they deliberately turned over a fake server,” the senior official said.

Awan ring loaded House data onto secret server and then covered it up with phony evidence
By Thomas Lifson

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/09/awan_ring_loaded_house_data_onto_secret_server_and_then_covered_it_up_with_phony_evidence.html

The secret server was connected to the House Democratic Caucus, an organization chaired by then-Rep. Xavier Becerra. Police informed Becerra that the server was the subject of an investigation and requested a copy of it. Authorities considered the false image they received to be interference in a criminal investigation, the senior official said.

Maybe I’m too suspicious, but perhaps they intend to sacrifice some of the more outrageous nominees so that they can then nominate people who don’t appear to be as radical and have them sail through the confirmation process. It’s all big game to the politicians and we are always on the losing end.
