There is a member of Biden’s administration in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), a Transportation Department subagency, that should not be there.
Ann Carlson, the acting administrator of the NHTSA, has gotten Senator Ted Cruz’s attention, but not in a good way.
Not only that, watchdogs are checking into her, and there is quite a bit of baggage attached to Carlson that Biden is going to have to answer for at some point.
Illegal Move
Carlson was appointed as the acting administrator while also being nominated for the role, something that is completely illegal according to the Federal Vacancies Reform Act.
Her nomination stalled and was eventually withdrawn.
Cruz stated, “President Biden’s illegal appointment of Ann Carlson, who was effectively rejected by the Senate due to concerns about her extreme agenda and radical record, will only yield more mandates, higher costs for families and a less vibrant economy.”
Not only that, but Carlson was also pushing lawsuits against fossil fuel companies prior to joining Biden’s administration.
She is an activist, not an expert.
Tom Jones, the president of the right-leaning watchdog group American Accountability Foundation, stated, “These revelations make it clear that Ann Carlson is utterly unsuited for a job in government.
“Putting a Leftist swamp creature like her in charge of regulating vehicles in America, even after she was rejected by the Senate, is a serious scandal that Joe Biden needs to answer for.
“Carlson has spent her career making life harder for regular Americans with her arbitrary and delusional campaign to eradicate gasoline powered cars.
“As we’ve just seen, even electric vehicles’ biggest boosters at Ford have realized that this technology is not a realistic alternative to gasoline cars.
“But thanks to Joe Biden she has the power to impose her extremist green ideology on all of us, attempting to become a Soviet style central planner for American cars.”
At what point is Biden going to be held accountable for the numerous times he has flouted our laws and Constitution?
