Thune: Xavier Becerra is a Threat to Religious Liberty, Wrong Person to Lead Health Department

“Xavier Becerra is not a mainstream candidate. He is an extremist who has used the offices he has held to advance an aggressively pro-abortion agenda and to target religious liberty and freedom of conscience.”

WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.), a member of the Senate Finance Committee, which has jurisdiction over the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), today expressed his strong opposition to Xavier Becerra, President Biden’s nominee to be HHS secretary. Thune acknowledged that Becerra does not represent the views of the majority of Americans on abortion, but rather the views of the radical, pro-abortion wing of the Democrat Party. Becerra supports abortion without restriction and holds an aggressively pro-abortion agenda. Thune urged his colleagues to join him in opposing Becerra’s nomination.

  1. Sen Thune is making good speeches now, wish he would have been supportive of Trump during the elections. Hope he like Biden and his policies . . . I mean K Harris and her policies.

    1. Thune is making good speeches when there is good evidence for him to base the speech on. Trump’s claims lacked that. Sounds like the failure is Trump’s, not Thune’s.

      1. Thune never supported Trump. Remember when he said Trump should resign from the campaign during the 2016 elections? Evidently you don’t think Trump had done some very good things like trying to get the border wall built, stopping the massive illegal immigration, getting the economy going, reducing unemployment to its lowest levels for blacks, rebuilding our military, etc, etc. The failure is Sen Thune’s for not supporting Trump during the 2020 elections.

        Now we have a disaster happening in Washington where pres. Biden doesn’t even have the facilities to address the nation. And the Dems themselves know of Biden ‘s diminished mental capacities and are afraid he might launch a nuclear strike, so they now see the need for and want another person to also have to push the red button.

        So, yeah, you and Sen Thune both failed.

        1. I really don’t understand how people can look at a preponderance of the evidence and come to any conclusion other than for four years, we had a president that woke up at the crack of noon and then simply sat and watched what cable news was saying about him and then reacted. Sen. Thune is a much more serious politician and legislator than Trump ever conceived of being.

          1. What is the preponderance of evidence that leads you to think that Trump woke at noon and did nothing but watch cable news? Please provide that evidence, maybe you will change my mind.

            In the meantime, your post leads one to think you in your wisdom must believe that all the good things that happened during the Trump years (most of which which never happened under Bush and Obama) all came about by accident. Good thinking!

          2. Wow, are you a mental case? President Trump actually accomplished things, and if he had had the support and backing of the whole Republican party they could have accomplished a lot more good for the country.

    1. Yeah, we know that you don’t think Senator Thune ever does any wrong, but that doesn’t mean that we all have to be of your opinion, Cletus.

      1. If you read through the comments section on most posts, the loudest individuals frequently are the ones who act like Trump walks on water. Integrity matters, and Thune has more integrity in his pinky finger than Trump has displayed.
