    Surge Summary: Joe Biden’s selection of radical pro-abortionist Xavier Becerra to lead his administration’s Health and Human Services Dept. gives the lie to any claims of the forty-year politician’s being a “moderate”. Meanwhile, Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi – who will never be mistaken for a moderate herself – continues to go after the Hyde Amendment, which currently protects U.S. taxpayers from being forced to underwrite abortions.

    In [Monday]’s report, I noted that California Attorney General Xavier Becerra was Joe Biden’s choice to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, a massive federal bureaucracy that manages our healthcare policies and doles out billions of dollars in federal grants.

    Becerra is all in on the left’s extreme pro-abortion agenda.  As attorney general of California, he continued Kamala Harris’s effort to put undercover journalists David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt in jail.  You may recall that Daleiden and Merritt exposed Planned Parenthood’s trafficking in aborted baby body parts.

    Becerra also led blue state efforts to sue the Little Sisters of the Poor over Obamacare’s contraceptive mandate, which Joe Biden has also vowed to do.  That vow and Becerra’s appointment should shatter the myth that Joe Biden is a moderate.

    There’s a reason Planned Parenthood spent $45 million in the elections to help elect Joe Biden and why it is spending millions more in Georgia right now to take over the Senate.

    Meanwhile, Speaker Nancy Pelosi hasn’t found time to pass an emergency relief bill for small businesses and working families, but she did authorize the House Appropriations Committee to find ways to repeal the Hyde Amendment.

    The Hyde Amendment has been law since 1976, and it prevents taxpayers from being forced to subsidize abortions.  Polling shows that the law is overwhelmingly popular.  (Here and here.)

    But the left doesn’t care what the American people want.  Its commitment to offering babies to abortionists resembles the child sacrifices that were made at the altar of Baal.

    Kudos to Senator Tom Cotton!  He has been clear about his opposition to Becerra, and he is urging the Senate to reject his nomination.
