Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's confirmation vote was postponed after Republican senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and Thom Tillis (R-NC) refused to support his nomination until they received written assurances that the Trump administration would scrap a nearly $1.8 billion 'weaponization' fund and narrow an IRS audit immunity deal. President Trump suggested he might withdraw Blanche's nomination until Cornyn and Tillis leave office in January.
