(I guess that's why Little Lyin Gusano Rubio and all the rest want the ICC and international law to be dismantled. They're worried shitless about the gallows.)

Todd Blanche was confirmed as Deputy Attorney General on March 5, 2025, and became Acting Attorney General on April 2, 2026 – but he has never stopped acting as President Trump’s personal lawyer. Under his leadership, more than 16,000 DOJ employees have left the department, including a quarter of its attorneys. He has overseen the termination of hundreds of employees, including agents, attorneys, and professional staff who worked on January 6 cases and the Special Counsel Jack Smith investigations.
Below is a list of actions Blanche has taken as Deputy Attorney General and Acting Attorney General that harmed the department’s workforce, advanced the politicization of the department, undermined the rule of law, and threatened public safety. These are actions that have been publicly reported and may not be exhaustive.
As Deputy Attorney General, he oversees the day-to-day operations of the department, including personnel matters, the Criminal and National Security Division, the U.S. Attorney’s Offices, the Office of Immigration Review, federal law enforcement components like the FBI, and much more. As Acting Attorney General, he is responsible for the entire department.
A full account of the attacks on DOJ during Blanche’s leadership as Deputy Attorney General and Acting Attorney General can be found in Justice Connection’s DOJ tracker.
