Senate Judiciary Committee Postpones Vote on Attorney General Nominee Todd Blanche

The Senate Judiciary Committee postponed a planned vote on July 30, 2026, for Todd Blanche's nomination as Attorney General after key Republican senators withheld support. The delay stems from demands for more assurances regarding the settlement of President Donald Trump's lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service, particularly concerns about a now-scrapped "Anti-Weaponization Fund" and the scope of a tax immunity deal for Trump and his family.
