Now, the details are scarce of this effort, but one would assume that the DHS Intelligence and Analysis would be part of that effort.

The nominee being considered today was one of the architects of George W. Bush administrations's bulk metadata collection at the NSA-- what a great recommendation for him. Sarcasm included--which gathered the private electronic communications of millions of Americans without warrant.

Is this someone we would want to be involved in the Biden administrations's new ``Ministry of Truth''?

I will not provide my consent to expanding the surveillance state and the suppression of First and Fourth Amendment rights of Americans.

I oppose this nominee and object.
