Elections matter a great deal, as more and more Americans are learning every single day. The people in charge of different areas of government have immense influence and power; this is especially the case when it comes to nominating various individuals to different positions.

There is no better example of this than Saule Omarova, President Biden’s recent nominee for Comptroller of the Currency. Omarova has expressed her interest in witnessing America’s oil and gas industry fail in order to push back against climate change.

She’s also called to destroy private banking in America. Yet, in spite of these comments, the White House continues to double down on its support of her.

Despite the support from the Biden administration, multiple senators (Republicans and even some Democrats) have expressed reservations about confirming Omarova to head the Office of Comptroller of the Currency.

On Friday, Florida GOP Sen. Marco Rubio made his issues with Omarova’s nomination very clear.

The problem with Biden’s nominee

Earlier today, the Florida senator called out the horrendous policies supported by Biden’s nominee. Rubio declared that an individual who seeks to eradicate private banking, shut down America’s energy sector, etc., shouldn’t serve as Comptroller of the Currency.
