“With his bruising confirmation battle behind him, Todd Blanche will soon be sworn-in as the Senate-backed head of the Justice Department,” the Washington Post reports.
”But the hardest part may be what comes next.”
”Blanche, President Donald Trump’s former criminal defense lawyer, will officially assume the title of attorney general and take command of an agency he has led on an acting basis since April.”
”But he will do so under competing pressures from a president intent on seeing his enemies put on trial, a federal judiciary increasingly skeptical of those efforts and a Republican-led Congress harboring growing doubts about Blanche’s ability to say ‘no’ to his boss.”
