Blanche Confirmation Stalled Over Fund | Charlotte News

Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description

Trump’s Attorney General nomination is hanging in the balance as he threatens to revive a controversial “Anti-Weaponization Fund” — tied to tax immunity for his family — unless two key Republican senators back his pick, Todd Blanche. The Senate Judiciary Committee had rescheduled a vote, but Trump flipped his stance again on social media, vowing to keep the acting AG in place if Blanche isn’t confirmed. Senators Cornyn and Tillis demand written assurances that the tax immunity doesn’t extend beyond the lawsuit or to future audits — a sticking point that could derail the confirmation before the August recess.
