Trump says he might pull Blanche nomination for AG until GOP holdouts leave office

President Donald Trump threatened to withdraw Todd Blanche’s acting Attorney General nomination until Senators Thom Tillis and John Cornyn leave office, citing their refusal to support him. Trump accused the senators of opposing Blanche and previously voting for Merrick Garland, while both senators face challenges in retaining their Senate seats. The Judiciary Committee has postponed a vote on Blanche’s nomination due to opposition from Democrats and unresolved concerns over a tax lawsuit settlement.
