Todd Blanche won’t get Thursday vote in Senate Judiciary Committee
The Senate Judiciary Committee postponed a vote on Todd Blanche’s attorney general nomination due to demands from Sens. John Cornyn and Thom Tillis for revised assurances about a Trump-IRS settlement. The delay threatens GOP leaders’ plans to confirm Blanche before the Senate summer recess.
