Trump Says He Has 'No Objection' to Withdrawing Todd Blanche's Nomination The standoff over President Trump's nomination of Todd Blanche as Attorney General has reached a critical juncture.
Two key Republican senators, John Cornyn and Thom Tillis, have expressed opposition to the nomination, citing concerns about a proposed settlement between the Department of Justice and Trump over a lawsuit related to the leak of his tax returns.
The proposed settlement would create an $1. 8 billion "Anti Weaponization Fund," which critics argue would allow Trump to shield himself and his allies from future audits by the IRS.
