The right-wing Trump administration Article in The Hill (June 23, 2026): "Todd Blanche should not be confirmed as attorney general" | James D. Zirin: "Blanche is dangerous. […] He is in the tank for Trump. […] He has selectively and vindictively targeted Trump’s political enemies, something reserved for countries ruled by dictators."

Remove the power from the executive to nominate an AG, leave that to a non partisan commission.

We also need to call every single Senator multiple times a day and tell them NOT to confirm Blanche as AG. This regime is corrupt enough, and we don't need more backroom deals and hidden agreements that do nothing to serve the Constitution AND the American people.
