Todd Blanche Gets Hung Out to Blanch history [UOrx6Daffia]
Donald Trump wants to promote his former criminal defense lawyer, Todd Blanche, to Attorney General—which raises the question: when does “attorney-client privilege” become a system of government? In this comedy short, we examine Blanche’s stalled nomination, Trump’s attempt to settle a lawsuit against his own administration, the mysterious $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization fund,” and a tax-immunity provision that appears to give the Trump family diplomatic immunity from arithmetic. Todd Blanche may have traded his independence for the Justice Department—but thanks to Trump’s billion-dollar loyalty plan, he could still end up completely Blanched.
