Tom Cotton flunks another fact check - Arkansas Times

Gupta received endorsement letters from the Fraternal Order of Police, the International Association of Chiefs of Police, the Major Cities Chiefs Association, the Major County Sheriffs of America and many others, the Post noted. Leaders of the organizations are quoted extensively in debunking Cotton.

The main Republican objection to Gupta, as it was to Neera Tanden, whose pick for a top budget job was scuttled, seems to be that she’d been harsh in Twitter commentary on the prior administration and Republicans. This line of attack is d used repeatedly by people like Cotton. Yet he steadfastly supported a social media sociopath who smeared, belittled, lied and accused and generally violated standards of decency in everything from grabbing women’s genitals to paying hush money to hookers to caging children and intentionally wrecking asylum-seeker families. To name but a few of his offenses.
