So, Trump’s personal attorney that he wants to install as Attorney General (and is the one that got criminal Ghislane Maxwell transferred to a lower security prison) is clearly not competent. Here are 3 things he has said very recently that make me hope that, unless Congress is complicit with wrongdoing and putting people without skills in jobs, they should laugh yet another of Trump’s loyalty pics out of Washington
Bill Bramhall/New York Daily News Bill Bramhall's editorial cartoon for Tuesday, April 28, 2026, as President Trump pushes for the construction of a new ballroom at the White House.

Although the acting AG until the Senate confirms a new one, he is not upholding the law (Epstein files)
Actually, I'm sorry to inform you that, Todd Blanche but the Epstein transparency act has yet to be fulfilled and since Congress has ordered the release of said files #USDemocracy www.ms.now/news/blanche…

What kind of investigation is this? No bullets found from WHCD from supposed killer?
This laughable indictment against James Comey. Who wrote this? Trump? hahahahah
EmptyWheel points out that Todd Blanche knows better – Defense Attorney Todd Blanche Didn’t Use to Believe Vituperative Speech Was a Threat
And while most attorneys will say Blanche is not estopped from taking legal positions contrary to those he has held in the past, a problem with the way DOJ charged Comey as if this were a real threat might provide the opportunity. Rather than charging that Comey knowingly and willfully intended to threaten Donald Trump, DOJ instead deemed this a threat because, “a reasonable recipient who is familiar with the circumstances would interpret as a serious expression of an intent to do harm to the President of the United States.”
That is, DOJ made this about the perception of the beholder, not about Comey’s intent. And Todd Blanche stood in front of the TV and included himself among the tiny group of people who would deem this a threat, a position directly contrary to what he said when Trump said far more threatening things, including a threat promising precisely the kind of retaliation this indictment presents.
To be sure, there are undoubtedly quicker ways to get this case thrown out, probably the same way Comey was planning on doing the last time: by pointing out the law in the indictment is wrong, and asking to see the grand jury transcript to show that it is there too.
But in his bid to impress his liege, Todd Blanche is thrusting himself deeper and deeper into these politicized cases and at some point (as it did in the SPLC case), his conduct will be put on trial long before the defendant will be.

The DOJ violates the Epstein Files Transparency Act on the daily. So I'm suing Todd Blanche. As a journalist, I cannot report accurately on the Epstein Files if I cannot even read them. I am represented by @brendanballou.bsky.social & we seek to hold the DOJ accountable for its noncompliance.

How come the guy that killed a protester in front of her wife is not charged yet?????
The masked ICE thug who killed Renee Good got 3 days of administrative leave. The guy who posted an anti-Trump photo of seashells faces 10 years in prison.

Don’t forget about Trump, without permission first, trashing the Kennedy Center
At 10am, historic groups argue for injunction to halt Trump's overhaul of Kennedy Center Suit asks judge to order "Defendants may not demolish, reconstruct, renovate, or transform the Kennedy Center building or grounds … without express congressional authorization"

Reminder about the ballroom case
@DAGToddBlanche – @TheJusticeDept is using an assassination attempt to justify a $400M ballroom @realDonaldTrump promised would cost taxpayers zero. Where are the private donations? Threatening a preservation group into dropping their lawsuit isn't security; it's extortion!
