Senate Ignoring Obama Judge's Attack on AG Nominee Todd Blanche Amid Confirmation Hearing
President Trump's acting attorney general Todd Blanche faces a crucial Senate Judiciary Committee hearing to determine his permanent appointment, but some senators are being urged to ignore a critical attack on him from an Obama-appointed judge.
President Trump's acting Attorney General nominee Todd Blanche faces a crucial Senate Judiciary Committee hearing to determine his eligibility for the permanent position. A federal judge from President Barack Obama's era, Mike Davis, has questioned Blanche's qualifications, claiming he is not an 'attorney general.' The Senate must ignore Davis' criticism and make a fair evaluation of Blanche's suitability for the role. A favorable hearing outcome could pave the way for Blanche to become the first acting AG to be nominated to the permanent position.
