Donald Trump’s nominee for attorney general, Todd Blanche, admitted “mistakes” in his handling of the release of millions of files stemming from investigations into Jeffrey Epstein, which revealed survivors’ names.
“That doesn't excuse the mistakes of which I take responsibility but it does mean that we tried to fix them,” he told the Senate Judiciary Committee during his confirmation hearing. Later, he said “that any mistake that we made should not have been made, and I very much apologize.”
