Trump Vows to Keep Blanche as Acting Attorney General

President Donald Trump says Todd Blanche will remain acting attorney general even if Republican opposition forces him to temporarily withdraw Blanche’s nomination. Sens. John Cornyn and Thom Tillis are withholding support while demanding written assurances that a proposed $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund will not move forward. Blanche says the Justice Department has already abandoned the plan, but the standoff has delayed his confirmation.
