Trump’s Personal Lawyer Is Now Attorney General | Todd Blanche Confirmed
·12 min
The Senate has confirmed Todd Blanche, Donald Trump’s former personal criminal defense lawyer, as U.S. Attorney General in a razor-thin 50-49 vote. On this episode of Filtered with TJ Walker, TJ examines what Blanche’s elevation means for the independence of the Justice Department, and why putting one of Trump’s most trusted legal allies in charge of federal law enforcement raises much larger questions about political loyalty, institutional norms, accountability, and the limits on presidential power. TJ also asks the uncomfortable question: if traditional political and legal norms no longer constrain the presidency, what actually does?
