The Senate Judiciary Committee is poised to vote on Todd Blanche’s nomination as acting Attorney General — a move brokered after he assured Republicans that a controversial Trump-linked IRS settlement fund will never be created. Though Blanche’s order confirms no appointments, funds, or claims process ever existed, Democrats demand permanent legislative bans, while Trump backs the fund and warns it’ll return if Blanche fails. Blanche, a DOJ veteran and Trump ally, faces scrutiny over DOJ independence, yet senators hail his cooperation as key to moving forward. This vote could reshape Justice Department leadership and reignite debates over political influence and accountability.
