From Xavier Becerra to Kristen Clarke to Vanita Gupta to Colin Kahl, the Biden administration has nominated and successfully confirmed politically extreme officials to top-level positions. Similar nominees are now awaiting confirmation. Their number includes Dilawar Syed and Tracy Stone-Manning.

Syed, nominated to be the No. 2 official at the Small Business Administration, is on the board of Emgage Action, a Muslim advocacy group that is anti-Israel. Emgage Action supports the antisemitic boycott, divestment, and sanctions movement against the Jewish state. The group has also defended former Women’s March leader Linda Sarsour, another supporter of the BDS movement.
