The Senate Judiciary Committee is set to vote today on Todd Blanche's
nomination for attorney general after he met key demands from two Republican senators,
one over a controversial fund, the other on Trump's taxes.
NPR's Ryan Lucas has more on what Senators John Cornyn and Tom Tillis wanted.
Late Sunday, Blanche released two documents.
One says it formally rescinds the order that created the Anti-Weaponization Fund, meaning the fund is dead.
The other purports to clarify the scope of the tax immunity deal, including
that it only applies retroactively and only to Trump, two of his sons, and the Trump Organization.
That said, legal experts say neither document that Blanche released is actually legally binding,
and they don't provide the sort of ironclad guarantees that they purport to.
But they are enough for Cornyn and Tillis.
And Piers Ryan Lucas reporting.
Michigan's closely-watched Democratic Senate primary is today.
As Russ McNamara of Michigan Public Radio Network reports,
the two candidates are taking differing paths in the race's final hours,
and the winner may offer a glimpse into the future direction of the party.
The moderate Democrat Congresswoman Haley Stevens spent Monday in West Michigan trying
to shore up support outside of metropolitan Detroit, where she has largely stayed.
She's been getting by on her folksy charm and tens of millions in super PAC money.
