Sen. WELCH: Is there no line that the Senate won’t allow Donald Trump to cross? It confirmed Bondi, Hegseth, Patel, Noem. And it’s about to confirm Blanche. The President is abusing his authority every day and every way, and that’s shame on him. But the Senate is failing to use its power.
Sen. VAN HOLLEN: The Attorney General is supposed to be the people’s lawyer. But in the Trump Administration, DOJ is focused solely on pleasing one person. Lest anybody forget, huge banners with the President’s face hang outside DOJ. Todd Blanche walks under them every day.
Sen. BLUMENTHAL: ‘I’m his lawyer’ is what Todd Blanche said in his confirmation hearing. He had no intention of saying it, but he let it slip. And it was a glaring illustration of his mindset. He was, is now, and will forever be Donald Trump’s personal lawyer.
Sen. DURBIN: Donald Trump and Todd Blanche believe insurrectionists should receive not only a pardon, but financial compensation. Even Republicans had a bad reaction. Negotiations continued, but their so-called agreement wouldn’t pass law school Contracts 101.
