Trump may withdraw Todd Blanche attorney general nomination as key Republicans withhold support

Written by AI, News Sources from CBS News, CBS Politics31 Jul 20261 min readUpdated 1 hr ago

President Trump says he may pull his nomination of Todd Blanche for attorney general, with the nomination's future in limbo. The withdrawal could last until next year, according to reports. Two Republican senators, John Cornyn and Thom Tillis, have threatened to block Blanche's confirmation unless Trump and the Department of Justice formally end a controversial “anti-weaponization” fund. Their refusal to advance Blanche in the confirmation process has put the nomination on hold. Trump's remarks suggest he is considering delaying the nomination rather than pushing ahead without the senators' support. No final decision has been announced, and Blanche's status remains uncertain.
