Tillis says Blanche won't be confirmed as AG amid Trump fund fight

Sen. Thom Tillis's announcement that Todd Blanche won't be confirmed as AG next week underscores the ongoing tension between the Trump administration and Republican senators over Trump's controversial "anti-weaponization" fund. This fund, which Trump claims supports political persecution victims, has become a sticking point, with Tillis citing new remarks from the president about the fund's status. This standoff highlights the broader implications for presidential powers and the Senate's role in confirming key administration officials, reflecting a deepening partisan divide.
