Blanche tells Bloomberg News he isn't reopening a criminal investigation into former Fed Chair Jerome Powell for cost overruns on its buildings But he said that if the Fed's own internal audit of the project finds evidence of wrongdoing, the DOJ could investigate

BLANCHE GOT SWORN IN AS ATTORNEY GENERAL AND WALKED STRAIGHT INTO CONTROL OF A SLUSH FUND BUILT FROM YOUR TAX DOLLARS Not a metaphor. A literal cash pot born out of an IRS settlement, and Donald Trump just handed the keys to the guy who used to be his personal defense lawyer Todd Blanche defended Trump in criminal court. Now Todd Blanche is the 88th Attorney General of the United States. Now Todd Blanche controls the so called "anti weaponization" fund Trump created after his own fight with the IRS Ask yourself who audits this. Ask yourself who signs off on where that money goes. The answer right now is nobody outside Trump's own orbit This is the same government that tells a single mother she owes back taxes on a stimulus check. The same IRS that sends certified letters over four hundred dollars. But when the president has a grudge against the tax man, he gets to build a fund and staff it with his own lawyer Blanche didn't get this job because he's a career prosecutor. He got it because he sat next to Trump in a courtroom and never once said no to him There is no independent oversight board. No inspector general briefing reporters. No public ledger anyone outside the building can check This is the pattern now. Loyalty in, oversight out. Every watchdog either fired, defunded, or replaced with someone who owes Trump their entire career An IRS settlement meant to police abuse of power is now a private account run by the president's own former defense attorney Regular people get audits. Trump gets a fund and a friend to guard it Ask who's watching the fund watching the IRS. Nobody. That's the whole point This is not oversight. This is Trump paying off loyalty with your money and calling it justice
