Trump’s push to confirm Todd Blanche as Attorney General has reignited a high-stakes political battle, with the president threatening to revive a $1.8 billion fund for victims of past justice system abuses — a move that also allegedly grants him and his family tax audit immunity. Senators Cornyn and Tillis are resisting, demanding clear limits on the immunity and assurances the fund won’t be reactivated. After recent signs of progress, including a rescheduled Judiciary Committee vote, Trump’s Saturday remarks reignited tensions, accusing the senators of opposing him politically. The DOJ claims Blanche’s fund order is rescinded, but senators still seek written clarification — all while racing against time to secure votes before next week’s deadline.
