Neera Tanden, President Joe Biden’s pick to lead the Office of Management and Budget, was pressed during a Senate committee hearing Wednesday over her past conduct on social media and comments about political opponents.
Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), ranking member of the budget committee, said that Tanden wasn’t “the unity pick” he expected from the Biden administration, and called her a “very partisan figure.” Graham pointed to a comment she made about Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who she called “Moscow Mitch,” and another comment she made in which she accused the Republican Party of having a “capacity for evil” that “knows no bounds.”
