I am a concerned citizen who cares deeply about the future of our country.
I believe that Todd Blanche is unfit to serve as our next Attorney General and I am urging you to vote against his confirmation.
Blanche has already done great damage to the justice system and to the rule of law in America. He has harmed the Department of Justice and put the American people in danger by firing hundreds of career prosecutors and FBI agents. His attacks on judges he disagrees with are irresponsible and dangerous. He is abusing his power and wasting taxpayer resources by focusing on an endless series of revenge prosecutions that put Trump’s personal interests ahead of the interests of the American people.
I am also concerned about the proposed 1.8 B “anti-weaponization” slush fund. Although Blanche claims he is not moving forward with this plan, he will not commit to this in writing. More importantly, why did he sign off on using billions of taxpayer dollars to pay people who harmed police officers and committed other crimes?
We need an Attorney General who is loyal to the Constitution and the law. Todd Blanche’s track record proves that he is neither of these. I am asking you to think about our country’s future and put the law and the Constitution ahead of politics.
Please do the right and ethical thing and vote against Todd Blanche.
We the people are counting on you.
