Todd Blanche, Trump’s former personal lawyer, just became Attorney General after a razor-thin 50-49 Senate vote — sparking outrage and debate. He traded key concessions to win confirmation: scrapping a $1.8 billion fund for Trump allies and dropping plans to shield the president from IRS audits. Democrats slam it as a betrayal of justice, while some Republicans argue his Trump ties make him uniquely suited to resist presidential overreach — even as he’s already ramping up investigations into Trump’s enemies. With staff turnover and a clear mandate to tackle crime and immigration, Blanche’s next moves could reshape the Justice Department — and the nation’s political landscape.
