Trump blasts GOP senators for blocking Blanche nomination in fierce feud over attorney general post
President Trump criticized two rogue GOP senators, Thom Tillis and John Cornyn, for blocking the nomination of Todd Blanche as Acting Attorney General, vowing to fight against an anti-weaponization bill.
President Donald Trump criticized Sens. Thom Tillis and John Cornyn for blocking the nomination of Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, vowing to fight against an anti-weaponization bill that he claims is aimed at targeting him personally. The two Republican senators oppose Blanche's permanent appointment, citing concerns about his past comments on election security and gun rights. Trump has vowed to take action against the legislation, which aims to prevent federal agencies from using information gathered through intelligence gathering operations to influence policy decisions. The move marks a significant escalation in the ongoing feud between Trump and his former allies within the Republican Party.
