‘I Can’t Believe You’ve Been Nominated’: Sen Hawley Grills Biden Judicial Nominee Over Her Work For Southern Poverty Law Center

Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley grilled Biden’s judicial nominee for the Eleventh Circuit for her involvement with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) during her nomination hearing Wednesday.

“I have to tell you, I find your answers absolutely extraordinary,” Hawley said to Nancy Abudu at the hearing. “Absolutely extraordinary. I can’t believe you’ve been nominated for this position. I can’t believe that the president of the United States would nominate someone from this organization with this record, and I can’t believe that you would sit here today and refuse to condemn this hateful, frankly, violent rhetoric.”

Abudu, the strategic litigation director at SPLC, said she joined the organization in February 2019.

“2019 was the year the SPLC paid $3.4 million in response to defamation lawsuits. 2019 was the year Charity Watch gave your organization an ‘F’ rating. The SPLC has been labelled by the left-wing policy journal Current Affairs as an outright fraud that uses willful deception designed to scare liberals into writing checks,” Hawley said.

The SPLC publishes an annual “Hate Map” which features several conservative and Christian organizations, including the Family Research Council, which was targeted in an attempted mass shooting in 2012, Fox News reported. The shooter, Floyd Corkins, saw the FRC on the map, which is labeled as anti-LGBTQ, in the lead-up to the shooting, CNN reported.

This is the problem with the Republican Party.

He can’t believe that a radical leftist would be nominated a position by the Biden administration?

Well, the problem is not so much that they can't believe it, but that they don't do anything about it once confronted with it.

And that applies to a lot more than just judicial nominees!

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn
