Indeed.
I mean, I think that's a natural human reaction, isn't it?
And he's had Todd Blanche around him in this administration as deputy attorney general.
But this step up is quite a remarkable one in terms of, you know, there's a direct line from the president to the attorney general.
in any administration.
It's a very close relationship, particularly close in this case, especially with some of the reporting that's come out of the Department of Justice in the last year and a half.
And obviously we saw a whole pile of lawyers fired.
We saw a whole pile quit because they didn't want to sort of represent the government in the cases that they were being asked to represent.
So there's a whole sort of chaos pool happening
in the Department of Justice as well.
And now we have Donald Trump wanting to put Todd Blanche in there.
And we heard the president reference their weaponization.
I mean, the really big, sticky issue for Todd Blanche to get over in the Senate confirmation hearings is this anti-weaponization fund that we've been talking about for just about a month or so now.
The $1.776 billion of a fund of federal money that was put there
to notionally at least compensate people who feel they've been wrongly prosecuted or persecuted by the American government.
Notionally, whether they're Republicans or Democrats, but the complaint about this fund is that it's largely set up or perceived to have been set up for those who feel they were persecuted by the Biden administration.
And the big concern that Republicans have and Democrats have
is that that fund could be used to make payments to those who, you know, launched themselves at the Capitol on the 6th of January 2021.
Now, Todd Blanche said in a hearing a couple of weeks ago, that fund has gone away.
It's never going to happen.
