Sen. Thom Tillis, R-NC, voted to advance acting Attorney General Todd Blanche’s nomination Tuesday to the permanent role after Blanche issued an order to terminate President Donald Trump’s “anti-weaponization fund.” When asked whether any president’s personal attorney should become attorney general, Tillis defends Blanche, saying he’s no longer Trump’s attorney.
