While Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth seems like the No. 1 target for impeachment, a former federal prosecutor wants House Democrats to go after Attorney General Todd Blanche first when they take over the chamber in January.
He believes a single count will end Blanche’s reign as head of the Department of Justice.
Harry Litman, a former U.S. attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania and deputy assistant attorney general, made the case in a column for The New Republic on Monday.
“It is high time to impeach Todd Blanche,” he wrote.
“Yet if I were drafting the articles, I’d opt to set aside, for the time being, all those horrendous abuses in the sycophantic service of Donald Trump and advance a single count: that Blanche has wielded the power of federal prosecution to punish the president’s enemies,” he wrote.
Fixed the click bait
My Hero! TY!
