Report: Biden Banking Nominee Scrubs Problematic Items from Resume
Saule Omarova, President Joe Biden’s pick for the top banking regulator to head the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, reportedly scrubbed problematic items from her resume.
A report from the Washington Free Beacon
indicated that Omarova allegedly removed references to a thesis she wrote while attending Moscow State University as a student on a scholarship named for Vladimir Lenin.
The thesis was about Karl Marx, titled “Karl Marx’s Economic Analysis and the Theory of Revolution in
The Capital,” which was on a resume of hers from 2017, the Beacon stated. However, it was not on the resume the news publication
reported on last month.
The report added:
Omarova, a professor at Cornell Law School, has already proved a controversial nominee. She has said she wants to “end banking as we know it” by providing bank services through the Federal Reserve rather than private banks. She has also proposed the creation of a federal agency called the National Investment Authority, which
would coordinate long-term national economic strategy and infrastructure development for the United States. Omarova, who left the Soviet Union after graduating from Moscow State in 1989, has praised the Soviet Union for eliminating the gender pay gap.
