Todd Blanche Named Acting Attorney General
The leadership shakeup at the Department of Justice comes as President Trump reportedly grew frustrated with Pam Bondi's failure to prosecute political enemies.
Todd Blanche, who previously represented the president in various legal battles, has been tapped to serve as acting attorney general until a permanent successor is confirmed.
Blanche's appointment has sparked immediate controversy, with critics questioning the independence of a former personal lawyer in the nation's top law enforcement role.
His first public statements have already signaled a shift in strategy, particularly regarding the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation files.
