Todd Blanche Faces Senate Judiciary Committee For Confirmation Hearing

Attorney Todd Blanche leaves after representing former U.S. President Donald Trump

Todd Blanche, President Donald Trump’s pick for deputy attorney general, is set to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday for his confirmation hearing. Blanche, a former federal prosecutor, has been nominated to become the second-in-command at the Justice Department.

The confirmation hearing is scheduled to commence at 10:15 a.m. ET, where Blanche will likely face tough questions from lawmakers. He has previously represented Trump in various legal cases, including a New York state case that led to a conviction last year and federal cases brought by the Justice Department.
