Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) accused Joe Biden of having a penchant for George Soros\u2019 backed extremist attorneys. During an appearance on the Hugh Hewitt Show, Cotton slammed Biden\u2019s nominations for high-level positions in the attorney general\u2019s office.<\/p>\n<p>The Republican specifically named Massachusetts District Attorney Rachel Rollins, who is perhaps one of the most contentious nominations by Biden and is up for the position of U.S. attorney for Massachusetts. Cotton is staunchly against her nomination, citing his many misgivings stem from her prosecutorial choices.<\/p>\n<p>The Arkansas senator pointed towards a dramatic rise in crime during Rollins\u2019 tenure and her self-proclaimed goal to destroy the criminal justice system. Cotton also highlighted an infamous incident where Rollins allegedly accosted a private citizen on Christmas Eve.<\/p>\n<p>Cotton said he, along with other Republicans, are working to expose the Democrat effort to advance Biden\u2019s dangerous nominations, such as Rollins. The Republican senator connected the U.S.\u2019s recent rise in crime as being closely tied to so-called Soros\u2019 backed district attorneys across the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Cotton initially delayed Rollins\u2019 nomination process and ultimately the Senate Judiciary Committee vote was an 11-to-11 tie. A discharge petition is expected to be pursued by Democrats for a floor vote with Kamala Harris being called to break a 50-to-50 tie if senators vote, as expected, along party lines.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, Cotton said the nomination process for Rollins has been \u201ca rare moment on the Judiciary Committee.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/price-of-bacon-sizzles-to-highest-in-40-years\/\">Price Of Bacon Sizzles To Highest In 40 Years<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 MAY 05: Sen.
