BREAKING: "At this moment, Todd Blanche does not yet have enough support to become Trump's attorney general." It's not that Todd Blanche can't release the remaining Epstein files or commit to ending the "weaponization" slush fund — he just won't. He has repeatedly chosen not to.

Todd Blanche is the guy who: - Exposed the names & photos of Epstein survivors but hid the names of abusers, - negotiated a $1.8 BILLION slush fund to pay off violent insurrectionists, - & cut a deal to give Trump's family immunity from IRS investigations. I'm voting NO.

Sen. Dick Durbin: One of your first official actions as acting AG, Mr. Blanche, was to establish the $2 billion slush fund to benefit J6 cop beaters while immunizing Trump from IRS liability. You defended the slush fund by claiming "people who hurt police get money all the time."

Let's be clear: Trump's slush fund creates a loyal militia of insurrectionists who are ready to break the law on his behalf and who will be PAID for their loyalty with your taxpayer money. There are no words left to describe the corruption we are witnessing.

Ossoff: “Yesterday we heard Congressman Mike Collins unacceptably and disgustingly call for taxpayer-funded payouts to the violent thugs who ransacked the United States Capitol to try to overturn the 2020 election. Congressman Collins needs to immediately come out and publicly retract his support for these taxpayer-funded payouts to violent insurrectionists. Furthermore, the congressman needs to publicly retract his false and disgraceful continued insistence that Donald Trump won the 2020 election, which Donald Trump lost decisively here in Georgia and across the country. Let me again be very clear. There is no place for taxpayer-funded payouts to violent insurrectionists who ransacked the United States Capitol and tried on January 6th to overturn a free and fair election, and for a sitting congressman and a candidate for the United States Senate to come out and call for taxpayer dollars to go to those violent thugs who attacked the Capitol is disgraceful. Congressman Collins needs to come out and hold a press conference today. He needs to retract his unacceptable support for taxpayer-funded payouts to the violent mob who sacked the United States Capitol. And furthermore, he needs to retract and apologize for his continued indulgence in the lie that Donald Trump won the 2020 election.”
