PoliticsA group of survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse are making a final push to block the confirmation of acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. They launched the 'Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Bookmobile' on the National Mall, which will carry bound copies of 3.5 million government files across the country during the midterm elections. Survivors delivered printed copies of the files to members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, which is set to vote on Blanche's confirmation. The survivors argue that Blanche has mishandled the Epstein case, including downplaying redaction errors that exposed survivors' names while concealing alleged perpetrators. Blanche's confirmation is also in jeopardy from two Republican senators who demand written assurance that Trump's 'Anti-Weaponization Fund' is dead.
