Cory Booker grills Todd Blanche at confirmation hearing
Acting AG Todd Blanche says securing safety for everyone is his job. But obviously that safety doesn't extend to immigrants driving to work.
Securing safety for powerful child rapists is his premier talent.
Nor to the women trafficked and raped by rich old men courtesy of Epstein. Or to those thrown into Trump's concentration camps with zero due process. Or to those kidnapped and dumped overseas. Or to voters being threatened and intimidated.
Or to women victims from the Epstein files. In fact, it’s a bald-faced lie. He is tied to Trump, and defends Trump, not the American people. He should not be confirmed under any circumstances.
I have NEVER EVER felt more unsafe than I do today. My fear is not caused by illegals but by WHITE MEN!!
LMFAO he's a fkn liar
Safety for the Epstein class.
Todd Blanche, Trump’s former lawyer turned acting AG, flew down to “meet” with Ghislaine Maxwell… and suddenly she’s in a minimum security camp where she gets puppy playtime & custom meals. He never stopped being Trump’s personal attorney. He just changed offices. Blanche must not be confirmed.
We don't need an AG who knows where the bodies are buried. We need an AG who will prosecute the people who know where the bodies are buried.
When Durbin expressed to Blanche that he hoped he would meet with the Epstein survivors in the room, I wish he had added "like you did when you met with Ghislaine Maxwell to give her a sweetheart deal…"
I just heard Todd say their focus is to make sure crime is down so kids can feel safe walking to school. What about the kids watching ice agents beating on people on the streets shooting people and killing them on their way to school?
And a puppy 🐶 Don’t forget she got a fucking puppy ! Absolutely shameful ‼️
A US Attorney General nominee has taken the oath for confirmation hearings at the Senate, 36 hours after a judge referred that nominee to the New York bar for disciplinary review
He’s a slimy SOB. #BlockBlanche
Remember when the media rightly called Michael Cohen "Trump's fixer"? Todd Blanche is the new Michael Cohen, no more, no less. And the thought of either of those henchmen being made attorney general should be terrifying to you. Call your senators today.
The man is pure evil. He must not be confirmed. It is time to release the Epstein files. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #Blues
#ToddBlanche #GhislaineMaxwell #Epstein #Trump In America, we don’t give traumatized children service puppies - no, no - we lock them in cages away from their parents and fail to provide basic human needs When it’s a *child trafficking rapist*? Taxpayer-funded puppies at club felon
Todd Blanche is a POS 💩......and should be disbarred.
The BlancheGate Epstein scandals are out... and Donald is shitting himself.
i feel like people need to understand they moved her for *her* safety. nobody in a minimum security prison is gonna get bribed/blackmailed into killing or assaulting her, unlike what happened when Epstein's cellmate (Nicholas Tartaglione) assaulted him. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nichola...
Let’s not forget that Todd Blanche has been a driving force in covering up the Epstein files. Any Senator making excuses for him today needs to be held accountable. Political disagreements are one thing. Willingly covering up a human trafficking investigation is another
Drag them all out into public
It’s a safe bet those Senators are IN the files.
And DOJ just refused the AG of New Mexico information. I Cc'd Senate Judiciary Dems. I hope they do their jobs to tank the nomination. Blanche belongs in jail for contempt. More than 300 days of not releasing the Epstein files that trump signed into law.
#30million8/30 If we do not assemble a massive march we will appear weak. 30 million marching on August 30th. I am not seeking likes. You need to repost this. I cannot make this happen by myself. It requires all of us to participate.
Any individual who votes for Todd Blanche as AG becomes part of the cover-up of the Epstein files. Their vote will reflect their complete lack of moral courage as they willingly grovel for Trump’s approval.
I’d be ever so grateful if any of them faced accountability.

Truth. He raped children. Anyone who excuses this is complicit.
Trump finally paid E. Jean Carroll $5.6 million. Tell your MAGA uncle! Two down, one to go!
Blanche’s confirmation hearing comes days after a federal judge referred him to the state Bar for disciplinary action.
The only thing transparent about Tod and the rest of Donnie's Ghoullianies is how easy it is to see through their BS. This regime is pathologically psychopathic.
Right. Read that again. Let this madness sink in! Todd Blanche is being referred for disciplinary action at the same time he’s a candidate for a top prosecutor’s job in AMERICA!!! Jesus Christ!
Hey GOP answer me: Are ICE's immigrant street killings beneficial to America? Were your ancestors emigrants? If so, then why didn't the admin in power then kill your ancestors? THINK!! GOP wants & recruits STUPID people to vote for them - GOP senseless. THINK! You GOP? Maybe you ARE stupid.
Read that again Maybe being referred to the State Bar should have been a red flag #CriminalEnterprise
I don't think he represents the American people. 🇺🇲
You can tell the little liar Blanche that America doesn't trust this administration as far as their seditious asses can be thrown. Strip him of his law license and let him wash cars for the rest of his life.
HAPPENING NOW: Trump's PERSONAL LAWYER & FIXER Todd Blanche faces high-stakes confirmation hearing for Attorney General Let that sink in... Donald's "fixer" will be the head of the Department of Justice THIS IS PURE IMPEACHABLE CORRUPTION Nov is coming... tinyurl.com/3zsukhut
Someone should ask Blanche why he said to Ghislaine Maxwell that there were "allegations" against her AFTER she was convicted. "Do you routinely have such little regard for juries?"
Any democrat that votes to confirm will be voted out. This includes you John Fetterman!!
Show me some fucking proof justice still exists in America!!
He’ll get confirmed. The senate is a rubber stamp for their GodKing.
If he is confirmed by spineless Dems and/or Repubs it will further confirm US as a shithole country with no one to blame but itself 🇺🇸💩🕳️
And if he's not confirmed, he can and will remain as 'acting' AG
Sen. Chuck Grassley is showering Todd Blanche with praise today. Anyone who thinks Grassley is a normal politician isn't paying enough attention. Grassley, age 92, is determined to leave this country with a dictatorship before he passes from this Earth.
So many people kept him in office all these years. WTAF is wrong with them?
Grassley now sticking up sticking up for The coup and besmirching Jack Smith. What a kook
He’s (Grassley) reading like a very elderly man, and Blanche looks bored.
He keeps talking about democrats being partisan but Grassley is showing where the partisanship bullshit is infested. In the Rapepublican party.
That idiot has filed paperwork to run in 2028. C’mon people, time to stop being incurable dumbasses.
He is way to old to be even there He is thirty years out of date Of course he is going to support the trump minion He needs the best healthcare in America to keep healthy
No one has ever asked Grassley why he said that he, not Pence, would be certifying the electoral votes on Jan. 6.
Grassley once visited my moms home as a state senator when she was a child in the mid 60's. Shes gone now, and hes still kicking and thats gonna piss me off for a looooong time.
HAPPENING NOW: Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is appearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee for his confirmation hearing to permanently lead the DOJ. If confirmed, it would place a Trump loyalist in the nation's top law enforcement position. Here's why that could be dangerous👇️
Trump tapped his former personal attorney to temporarily serve in the role after firing former Attorney General Pam Bondi in April. Since then, Blanche has accelerated sham criminal probes against the president's foes and progressive groups that have long drawn the ire of conservatives.
Wrote Thom Tillis this morning urging him to vote no.
He's a mafija gnome. And the GOP is just DISGUSTING
I think Chuck Grassley is a walking advertisement for term limits. I think Todd Blanche is a walking advertisement for Satan.
Grassley will turn 93 in September. He is one of the longest-serving elected politicians in U.S. history, having consistently held elected office since 1959. It's crazy that he's allowed to continue in office.
I like Satan more than Todd.
Jon Stewart’s monologue was about the gerontocracy that is our Congress & it was tragic & funny. And very unsettling. Term limits now!
And I think Mitch McConnell is dead
If todd blanche is Satan then what is stephen miller?
www.youtube.com/live/31OoMFr... Call your Senators to reject the confirmation of Todd Blanche.
Say no to Fraud Blanche.
Important question for Todd Blanche: At what point did you sell your soul?
Todd Blanche is evil. He is devoid of morals, ethics, and conscience. He is wholly unqualified to be the US Attorney General. Covering up the Epstein Files, seeing all the evidence that children were trafficked for sex and raped! That’s disqualifying. Covering up murders by ICE. Disqualifying!
His confirmation is unthinkable. Do NOT confirm this worm.
Grotesque how the two Handmaiden sycophants just sit there and fawn over him instead of any serious discussion.
Todd Blanche helped cover up Epstein’s crimes, weaponized the Department of Justice against Americans, and tried to create a taxpayer-funded slush fund for Trump’s allies. He is unfit to be Attorney General.
What gets me is that this isn’t even about one controversy anymore. Every few weeks there’s another headline, another explanation, another excuse, and somehow we’re expected to treat it like business as usual. That’s not normal for an Attorney General nominee.
So far it is your traditional soft ball interview. Vote Blue🗳️
And refuses to prosecute crimes like ICE murders, MAGA bribes, etc.
I'm watching Todd Blanche's nomination hearing for Attorney General today [the things I do for you people smh] and as GOP Senators Grassley & Moody went hard for Blanche, I found myself struck by how..unnecessary this all is like, you could simply not go up for a sentient red flag. that's an option
It's a little more difficult to reject him if you need the president/AG to keep you out of prison.
Thank you for your sacrifice. I can’t watch. Ugh.
I don't understand how the party came to loathe America.
“If the deranged antifa left hates the Bath Salts Face-Eating Guy, he must be be a hero. So we have nominated him to to lead the FDA. You have Face-Eating-Guy Derangement Syndrome.”
the head mobster really wants his mob lawyer so all the henchmen do what they can
nominate only folks with glaring flaws and they know they're in a precarious position from day 1 and owe all their loyalty to Fearless Leader to keep their position
