Todd Blanche’s chances of becoming attorney general could hinge on John Cornyn
Todd Blanche's confirmation as attorney general faces uncertainty due to potential opposition from Senate Judiciary Committee members, particularly John Cornyn and Thom Tillis. Blanche denied concerns about a controversial fund, but Cornyn remained undecided and could influence the outcome. Senate GOP leaders aim to confirm Blanche before an August recess.
