Former Pardon Attorney: A federal judge found that Mr. Blanche personally misled this Congress about the department's settlement agreement with Trump. To the public, it looks like Mr. Blanche is running the Justice Department as Trump's personal law firm. Blanche has repeatedly placed Trump's interests ahead of the interests of the country. The settlement agreement is a perfect example. It protects the entire Trump family and all of their businesses from any investigation forever. It gives away $2 billion of our money for no reason at all.

🚨 TRUMP PLAYS HARDBALL ON BLANCHE NOMINATION President Trump is signaling he may simply withdraw Todd Blanche’s formal nomination for Attorney General rather than keep fighting Sens. John Cornyn and Thom Tillis. The two senators are still demanding written guarantees on the anti-weaponization fund and the Trump family’s IRS settlement terms. Trump’s message: He has “no objection” to pulling the nomination and waiting until Cornyn and Tillis are out of office. Because Blanche is already serving as Acting Attorney General, there is no statutory clock forcing a quick decision. He can continue in the role. The confirmation fight may just be postponed until the two holdouts are gone.

Sen. Adam Schiff: The IRS settlement agreement that absolves Trump of past tax liabilities. Trump was convicted in the case you represented him in, of falsifying business records in part for tax purposes. Blanche: He can't be audited for that Schiff: Of course he can be, and he can be prosecuted for it, but the agreement you signed, in a staggering example of self-dealing, prohibits that.

Fox News’ Sandra Smith: “Todd Blanche’s confirmation to become attorney general may be in jeopardy as Republican Senator John Cornyn cancelled a planned meeting with Acting AG Blanche today. Cornyn says he is not ready to support the nomination without assurances on the anti-weaponization fund and the DOJ’s settlement of the Trump family/s lawsuit against the IRS.” “Without Cornyn’s yes VOTE [Blanche’s] nomination may never reach the Senate floor for confirmation.”
