Trump says he may pull Blanche’s attorney general nomination until dissenting senators leave office
President Trump said he may withdraw Todd Blanche’s attorney general nomination until Republican Sens. John Cornyn and Thom Tillis leave office, citing demands from Senate Republicans over a tax immunity agreement. Cornyn and Tillis seek written assurances ending an 'Anti-Weaponization Fund' and modifying a settlement protecting Trump from tax audits. The Senate Judiciary Committee postponed Blanche’s nomination vote, with all Democratic senators opposing it.
