Wow -- a haggard-sounded Blanche crashes and burns on ABC while trying to defend Trump's ban on the free press RADDATZ: The president said nothing about national security when he announced this ban, and clearly you're very interested in what the press says and how they say it BLANCHE:... What they say is exactly the issue when it comes to national security RADDATZ: Give us an example BLANCHE: You cannot be asking me that! RADDATZ: But the judge decided this was not based on national security BLANCHE: It is a privilege not a right to be in the White Houseshow more

This is the entire problem in 20 seconds. “National security.” Give us an example. “You cannot be asking me that!” If the government is going to use national security to justify excluding members of the press, asking it to explain the national-security justification is exactly what journalists should be doing.

I miss the times when I didn't have to see the AG going on TV to defend the president banning media outlets.

Todd Blanche still acting as Trump's personal attorney. He should be impeached!

Todd blanche is not very professional as this country's AG. He's just another lying trump personal lawyer that this administration sent out to appear on Sunday morning shows to do trump's bidding. A trump lawyer that we the people are paying for.

It's the people's house. Trump has the privilege of being in the people's house, not the people. The people have the right to be in their own house.

“It is a privilege not a right to be in the White House”

Any comment on the Epstein files??? We’ll wait. #GopPedoProtectors 🤦‍♂️🤡🤮🤮

“It is a privilege, not a right”, fuck off. The public elected you into office. But god forbid you get any criticisms. I know for a fact if this was a Democrat, y’all would be bringing articles of impeachment.

It's a privilege for Trump and his Epstein administration to be in the White House, not the press

BLANCHE: You cannot be asking me that because i have no proof. Simple.

It’s tricky, Todd, isn’t it? Your boss craves attention but can’t control the narrative that comes with it. But you keep showing up on TV to call attention to your helplessness.

Give an example, little man Blanche

It can be a difficult job defending the indefensible 24/7 - while your law license is at stake.

Wow Blanche looks like he aged 20 years inthe past 12 months.

Blanche to Trump - “I love you sir “ #Compromised

The president and his regime should remember that last bit about it being a privilege, not a right to be in The White House.

He really is aging extremely quickly….

I'd say this is pathetic, but this is exactly on par for the Fourth Reich...

Courts also argued that even if it is a privilege, an administration cannot be selective on who they allow in or not allow in.

It’s not a right for the press to be at the people’s HOUSE? He’s not gonna talk about what the judge said? Constitution be damned.

Misinformation begins with compulsive lying by the orangutan himself. Blanche has somehow forgot about the first term. 🦧🪗

It’s a right, not a privilege.

Idiot Epstein blanche thinks white House belongs to Trump. It is a public Institution run by public tax payer money. Corrupt criminals took over government

He said "when you have complete misinformation coming out of the White House."

Also, there’s precedent for this not being a justification for regulation based on content: New York Times v. U.S, 403 US 713 (1971). Maybe Attorney General Blanche was sick that day.

Fuck this scumbag

The fact that the US Attorney General is on talk shows, and speaking at political conventions and events is insane!

Look how much he’s aged in the last 6 months

Pro-tip...don't go on a talk show after a Saturday night bender.

You know what I think affects our relationship with leaders of foreign countries.. saying we’ll annihilate another country if they don’t do what we want.

🥴

Blanche might want to inform his client it's a privilege not a right to be in the People's House.

This guy's sooo getting disbarred before this is all over.
