As a former federal prosecutor in the D.O.J., the closest analogy I can draw between Blanche and Trump is that Blanche is to Trump as Himmler was to Hitler.
I compare TRUMP to HITLER, PUTIN & STALIN!! Blanche is just another TRUMP STOOGE & SHAMELESS PUPPET of CORPORATE AMERICA!! America is the only "SHITHOLE" country in the Universe thanks to WHITES and their IGNORANCE, ARROGANCE and UTTER STUPIDITY!! BTW I'm a 78 y/o, WHITE MAN who has been victimized by whites many times in my life! Sometimes on purpose and sometimes as collateral damage!! Either way, WHITE SUPREMACISTS have ALWAYS CONTROLLED AMERICA and SCREWED EVERYONE!!
Mary said, "Todd Blanche is protecting somebody". That somebody, of course, is Donald, who disregards and undermines the law.
Since Todd, a lawyer, helps Donald undermine the law, it seems to me, as a non-lawyer, that his actions/undermining the law would be grounds for disbarment. If so, who in this administration would initiate or support his disbarment process?
Keeping the focus is important. Thanks for pointing that out. It's easy to lose focus amid the many strange and unpredictable actions of a hyperactive, twisted mind.
Silly me, I thought the DOJ defended the government and the present in an official capacity only. The DOJ and AF was never supposed to be the president’s personal law firm and counsel. This is such a blatant conflict of interest.
So Mary - so eloquently put. Just what can the American people do about this? MAGA still has enough power to overcome any election (with help from DOJ and other corrupted institutions). As I see in so many of the comments here, it is frightening. I mean, outside of overwhelming voter support, which may or may not be enough, just what are we to do? I highly suspect alot of German citizens in the 1930's were asking the same question.
The FECKLESS, COWARDLY, WHITE-SUPREMACIST REPUBLICANS do NOT have the TESTICLES to DENY BLANCHE confirmation!! We're DEEP in a CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS and most Americans are CLUELESS!! Our DEMOCRACY is barely hanging on and FELON TRUMP & HIS GOONS will DO ANYTHING to STEAL the Nov. 2026 election!! Will American PEOPLE unleash their WRATH on REPUBLICANS starting IMMEDIATELY?!!

Very scary!
That's frightening yet true.

Trump is now really #1
He is the person most wanted dead in the entire world.
It’s like you’ve never seen before!
Unfortunately.for Trump, Hitler still has the #1 spot for evil but Trump is catching up. Like you wouldn’t believe!
Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Is there still hope for any honesty in this administration? I think not, and that is terrifying!
You nailed it again!! Many thanks for youyhonest and I imagine sometimes painful work

Thank you for the article, I just got off of civil discourse substack. No I feel Todd Blanche nomination should not be.
Also, the person who nominated him should not be.
Thank you for keeping the focus, Mary and for keeping this in the news ❣️

Can some Republicans suddenly grow a spine and vote NO?
Since they haven't grown a spine by now, they never will.
Silly me, I thought the DOJ defended the government and the present in an official capacity only. The DOJ and AF was never supposed to be the president’s personal law firm and counsel. This is such a blatant conflict of interest.
I pray and hope that we Americans can keep our democracy intact despite the machinations of Punkin' head. God help us all and God bless America!
