The Politicization of Justice Takes a Dark Turn The US Senate's confirmation of Todd Blanche as attorney general on Saturday marked the culmination of a disturbing trend: the erosion of the Department of Justice's independence and the normalization of politicized prosecutions.
Blanche, a former personal lawyer to President Donald Trump, has been at the center of controversy since his appointment as acting attorney general in April.
Critics argue that he prioritized loyalty to the White House over impartial justice, using his position to retaliate against perceived opponents of the president.
