Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's nomination to become the permanent Attorney General was cleared by the Senate Judiciary Committee after he agreed to abolish a controversial $1.8 billion fund established by the Trump administration to compensate allies who felt persecuted by justice during Joe Biden's term. The fund, which was part of an out-of-court settlement between Trump's Justice Department and the IRS, had sparked outrage among Republicans and Democrats alike. Blanche's move to abolish the fund cleared the way for his confirmation vote, which is expected to take place soon.
