A Very Big Deal Indeed

Trump has officially nominated Todd Blanche to become attorney
general of the United States, Blanche as formerly Trump’s
personal attorney who led the defense team in the case of
falsifying records and in the cases for trying to overturn the
results of the 2020 election and retaining classified documents,
Blanche has flouted the law to do Trump’s bidding, The nomination
challenges Republican senators to ignore rank and file
Republicans, and to break the law, The DOJ has ignored the
Epstein Files Transparency Act, and Epstein survivors are being
threatened by Trump supporters, This nomination encourages the
DOJ to bless wide ranging corruption, from allowing foreign
interests to invest in Trump family businesses in exchange for
preferential treatment, allowing Middle East billionaires to buy
access to the president, and to make billions in a crypto
currency business that has generated losses for more than a
million investors duped by the promise of investing in a Trump
business, Reports reveal massive fraud by Hungary’s Viktor Orban
before he lost his bid for re-election, Trump is attempting to
prevent the kind of defections in his rank that Orban suffered by
forcing Republican senators to vote for Blanche’s confirmation,
The Blanche confirmation is a very big deal.
