Many commenters say he’ll be Trump’s attack dog and Friday’s firing was just the beginning.
Blanche is a wrecking ball—day one as Deputy AG and he’s already axing Biden’s pardon puppet. More heads will roll, bet on it. Trump’s trial-hardened pitbull is unleashed in the DOJ, ready to shred the swamp. Buckle up, this badass is about to rewrite justice in blood.
