Republican Senator Thom Tillis threatened to withhold his vote for President Donald Trump’s attorney general nominee after the president indicated he would seek to fulfill his nearly $1.8 billion “Anti-Weaponization Fund.”
In the latest escalation between Senate Republicans and the president, Tillis and Trump exchanged demands across social media Saturday morning, with the president threatening to revive his unpopular “slush fund” if Tillis refused to confirm Todd Blanche.
