Vanita Gupta will appear for her confirmation hearing Tuesday as President Biden's nominee for assocate attorney general, but if she misses out on the job she would not exactly have to struggle, according to her financial disclosure form. While Gupta may have significant financial assets, there is big money behind an effort to block her confirmation. The Judicial Crisis Network (JCN) spent $800,000 on an ad campaign targeting the nominations of Gupta and Health and Human Services nominee Xavier Becerra. One ad calls Gupta "a dangerous appointee at a dangerous time," alleging that her selection breaks Biden's promise of "unity." Gupta's confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee will take place Tuesday morning at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time.
