Five Democratic senators have told the White House they won't support Saule Omarova to head the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, effectively killing her nomination for the powerful bank-regulator position.
Why it matters: The defiant opposition from a broad coalition of senators reflects the real policy concerns they had with Omarova, a Cornell University law professor who's attracted controversy for her academic writings about hemming in big banks.
Their opposition also hints at a willingness of some Democratic senators to buck the White House on an important nomination, even if it hands Republicans a political — and symbolic — victory.
Republicans have attacked the Kazakh-born scholar in remarkably personal terms, and turned her nomination into a proxy battle over how banks should be regulated.

Good point.
What’s to consider? That value doesn’t exist, except in what it takes from your check book.
“Wish I could find a source for an unbiased, accurate description of her philosophies as all I can find are fluff and excuse making sites trying to make her look as good as they can”
All one needs to know is she won’t produce her thesis that she wrote titled “Karl Marx’s Economic Analysis and the Theory of Revolution in The Capital.”
And of course this POS is seeing that she is going down in flames, therefore she pulls out the race card, women card..... Loathsome creature.
Centrists, my ***.
Both are Deep State.
Looks to me like the nominee was just thrown under the bus to give Manchin and Sinema some cover.
And just how would they propose to do that?
“And just how would they propose to do that?”
Gee, I don’t know. How did they pass Biden’s $1.7 trillion dollar non-infrastructure bill?
Here’s how:
Roy Blunt of Missouri
Richard Burr of North Carolina
Bill Cassidy of Louisiana
Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia
Susan Collins of Maine
Kevin Cramer of North Dakota
Mike Crapo of Idaho
Deb Fischer of Nebraska
Lindsey Graham of South Carolina
Chuck Grassley of Iowa
John Hoeven of North Dakota
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky
Lisa Murkowski of Alaska
Rob Portman of Ohio
Jim Risch of Idaho
Mitt Romney of Utah
Dan Sullivan of Alaska
Thom Tillis of North Carolina
Roger Wicker of Mississippi
OHIO PING!
Please let me know if you want on or off the Ohio Ping list.
Centrist Dems sink Biden’s nominee for top bank regulator

“In phone call on Wednesday, Sens. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) Mark Warner (D-Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.), all members of the Senate Banking Committee, told Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) — the panel’s chairman — of their opposition.”
Ohio’s sackless “She Rod” Brown pushing Khazak born Commissar bank regulator.
Who thought she would ever be a good choice for Comptroller of the Currency?
President Biden's nominee to lead a branch of the Treasury Department was arrested in 1995 for “retail theft.”
Fox News obtained a Wisconsin Department of Justice criminal background check of Saule Omarova, the president's nominee to lead the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC).
Axios thinks most Americans want the government to control their private bank accounts
I think demRATs strategy is to select the most destructive candidates first and then work their way towards minimally acceptable.
