Just when you thought the D.C. swamp radicals couldn’t get any more radical than AOC and the Squad, our Oval Office occupant comes up with Saule Omarova as his nominee for a crucial post governing much of our nation’s finances. Biden’s nomination of Omarova for comptroller of the currency has not been without controversy. No surprise there, considering her past and her radical Marxist plans for “restructuring” the American economy. What is surprising is that the “controversy” hasn’t turned into a full-fledged firestorm, inasmuch as Omarova appears to be directly channeling Karl Marx in her calls for nationalizing banking, expanding the powers of the Federal Reserve, and digitizing our currency — thus removing all restraints on federal spending.

The Communist Manifesto, the 1848 handbook authored by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, laid out a 10-plank program for creating the communist society they envisioned. Each of the planks fit into a cohesive plan for creating omnipotent government. The Manifesto’s fifth plank calls for “Centralisation of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.” 

Omarova, the Beth and Marc Goldberg Professor of Law at Cornell Law School, has written in praise of the former Soviet Union (her homeland) and in favor of Soviet-style central planning.
