I was in disbelief.

Hi John,

I've just published a new blog post:
[link removed] The Su Stonewall
<[link removed]>

Yesterday's hearing was unreal. Biden's Labor nominee, Julie Su, was
the most evasive witness I've ever seen. My 5 minutes of questioning
turned into 20 as other committee members gave me their time so it could
continue.

The much-awaited hearing almost didn't happen. Last Friday, Su
suddenly claimed she couldn't make it; we had to threaten a subpoena
to get her to show. Chair Virginia Foxx, a former principal, opened the
day with a scathing reprimand
<[link removed]>.

I began by asking Su three questions: Which state has the nation's (1)
highest poverty rate (2) lowest wage growth, and (3) second highest
unemployment? Su was stumped
<[link removed]> by each
one; the answer to all of them, of course, is California - whose Labor
Department she led.

Things got strange when I turned to AB 5, the disastrous law that Su
championed. I asked simply: is AB 5 a good law? She was somehow baffled
by this question. You have to see her reaction
<[link removed]> to believe it.

Then I asked how she voted on Prop. 22. This was the initiative that let
Uber and Lyft stay in California by sparing them from AB 5. Voters
passed it in 2020 while Su was Labor Secretary. I couldn't contain my
disbelief <[link removed]>
as she claimed she

**didn't remember** how she voted.

As to the $32 billion in unemployment fraud her agency allowed, she
denied all responsibility - even as I quoted
<[link removed]> independent
audits and Democrat legislators blaming her directly. In fact, she could
not name one thing she would have done differently.

Newsom says California is a "model for the nation," and by nominating
Su, Biden again seems to have believed him. We know it's just the
opposite: a warning to the nation. Yesterday's hearing sounded that
warning loud and clear.

Help me sound this warning to America
