Todd Blanche held firm when the left tried to imprison the President. He cleaned up a lawless Justice Department.
Blanche is the right choice. He must be confirmed now.
Tell your senator: vote yes on Blanche.

"The Western States Sheriffs’ Association (WSSA) voiced their support of Blanche’s nomination in a letter to the Senate citing his adherence to the rule of law, support of law enforcement, and commitment to public safety."

Today the Supreme Court upheld the Trump Administration’s clear authority to terminate Temporary Protected Status for hundreds of thousands of Haitian and Syrian nationals.
The Department of Justice successfully defended the position that TPS was always meant to be temporary. This ruling rejects efforts to turn the program into a loophole abused by illegal aliens to remain in the United States.
Proud of this department’s work to advance President Trump’s agenda of securing our borders and upholding the rule of law.
Today the Supreme Court delivered a massive victory for the Second Amendment in Wolford v. Lopez.
The Court struck down Hawaii’s restrictive “vampire law,” which improperly limited the right to bear arms on private property.
The Department of Justice is proud to have defended the constitutional rights of law-abiding Americans in this case.
We will continue protecting the Second Amendment under President Trump’s leadership and will never allow any state to violate the right to bear arms.
I enjoyed meeting with @DAGToddBlanche today.
We discussed his plans to support our law enforcement, combat violent crime, and keep our communities safe once he’s confirmed as Attorney General. I strongly support his nomination, and I look forward to continuing our work together on behalf of the American people.
I enjoyed my meetings today with @SenMikeLee@SenEricSchmitt@SenAshleyMoody and @SenTedCruz. A great part of this confirmation process has been getting to hear from Senators on how the DOJ's work impacts their respective states.
This afternoon, I enjoyed catching up with @DAGToddBlanche.
We had a great conversation about our shared priorities of hunting down criminals and keeping Americans safe.
"Todd Blanche is manifestly qualified, has shown his commitment to ending the lawfare that corroded public trust, and has earned the support of law-enforcement coalitions across the country."

President Trump nominated @DAGToddBlanche to serve as Attorney General because he is committed to protecting election integrity, supporting law enforcement, and keeping communities safe.
The Senate should act swiftly to confirm the next leader of the Department of Justice!
The DOJ has already twice filed in court that the fund isn't going forward, coupled with Acting AG Blanche's testimony before Congress that the fund isn't moving forward. In essence, the judge's demand for declarations was an attempt to require her to personally sign-off on any and all future settlements, separate from this non-existent Fund, that the department may make. Judges do not get to insert themselves into the department's routine settlement authority.
NOW: DOJ spox tells me Judge Brinkema is unnecessarily inserting herself into routine settlement authorities.

Smart move by Acting AG Blanche 2 appoint the 1st ever Natl Coordinator for Child Exploitation & Human Trafficking
Protecting young lives is a top priority across Congress + DOJ + White House This new role underscores DOJ's commitment 2 our shared goal
BREAKING: Bureau of Prisons breaks silence about the nature of Ghislaine Maxwell's prison transfer, calling @RepRobertGarcia latest remarks "categorically false."
"No preference, special treatment, or political influence played any role in these decisions."
In light of the recent congressional staff visit to Federal Prison Camp Bryan, the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) must correct the record as it relates to the intense public interest in inmate Ghislaine Maxwell. While the BOP takes extraordinary efforts to protect the rights and privacy afforded to inmates, recent mischaracterizations have made this statement necessary.
BOP designates and transfers inmates based on established criteria, including required security and supervision levels, separation needs, medical considerations, and, most importantly, inmate safety. Political rhetoric over the last six months has perpetuated a false and dangerous narrative that has metastasized into outright lies perniciously spread online and in some irresponsible news outlets.
Inmate Ghislaine Maxwell’s designation and transfer were made independently by BOP and were based on these factors that required additional security measures. Inmate safety is a key consideration, and we could no longer ensure her safety at her original facility. The current facility provided BOP the opportunity for improved security measures and a leadership team specifically equipped to handle the management of these needs.
No preference, special treatment, or political influence played any role in these decisions. Claims that inmate Maxwell has received preferential treatment, enhanced living conditions, unusual privileges, or that her placement was the result of outside interference are categorically false and inaccurate.
Chairman Garcia’s comments on CNN are not only categorically false but also serve to denigrate the men and women of BOP, who work hard every day to ensure safety and security in often challenging and demanding environments.
“Blanche has spent the last 15 months bringing much-needed reforms and accountability at the Justice Department. But much more must get accomplished to restore public confidence in our justice systems. Blanche is uniquely qualified to finish the job. He’s the right man, at the right time, for the right job.” - @mrddmia
