The US Senate confirmed Todd Blanche as attorney general in a 50-49 vote, with Republican Senator Bill Cassidy as the deciding vote. Blanche, Trump's former personal lawyer, had been acting attorney general since April. His confirmation faced bipartisan concerns over politicization of the Justice Department, including his handling of Epstein documents and the anti-weaponization fund.
