Senate Confirms Trump’s Defense Lawyer Todd Blanche as Attorney General
In an early morning vote, the Senate just put Trump’s defense attorney in charge of the entire Department of Justice.
Nothing screams traditional career advancement quite like moving straight from defending a high-profile client in court to running the department that was investigating him. In a late-night vote, the Senate officially confirmed Todd Blanche as the new legal head of the country.
The attorney who spent the last year shielding Trump from criminal prosecution now controls the Department of Justice. That is one way to handle department restructuring.
The ultimate qualification for America's top law enforcement officer turned out to be personal legal representation.
