Will Cornyn Cave and Vote to Confirm Blanche as AG?

The article analyzes Senator John Cornyn's hesitation to vote for Todd Blanche as Attorney General, focusing on Blanche's role in a controversial settlement deal involving an 'anti-weaponization fund' that shields Trump from IRS audits. Cornyn extracted an admission that Trump could still enforce the deal. A federal judge ruled the lawsuit was collusive and referred Blanche to the New York State Bar. Senator Thom Tillis is leaning yes after a meeting with Epstein survivors. The piece also notes threats against judges have surged 57%, and former Senator Mitt Romney feared for his safety, suggesting intimidation may influence Cornyn's decision.
