Blanche personally signed a waiver as part of the IRS settlement, ensuring the agency would not pursue existing claims against Trump, his family or his businesses. He confirmed to a House Appropriations Committee panel that this agreement remains in place.

Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina said Blanche's handling of January 6 statements would be a "circuit breaker" for his confirmation vote, while also acknowledging Blanche's role in de-escalating the administration's dispute with former Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.

Handing the DOJ to a former personal defense attorney is a blatant conflict of interest that undermines the independence of American law enforcement. Blanche mishandled the Epstein files and backed a slush fund for insurrectionists — loyalty to Trump, not the law, is driving this nomination. The nation's top law enforcement post deserves better than a pick defined by personal allegiance.

Todd Blanche's tenure at the DOJ marks a genuine turning point for federal accountability, with the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey proving no one is above the law. Scrapping the controversial $1.8 billion fund shows a commitment to legal integrity and responsible use of taxpayer money. Equal enforcement of the law is finally the standard, not the exception.
