The relationship between Trump and Blanche has been a financially significant one. Blanche’s law firm was paid $9.2 million by Save America, a pro-Trump political action committee, between April 2023 and December 2024, for work on cases that included the trial about payment of alleged hush money to adult-film star Stormy Daniels, according to federal election records. Trump was found guilty in the hush money case, which has been appealed and is being handled by other attorneys.
The Justice Department did not respond directly to questions from The Washington Post about whether Blanche consulted a government ethics official regarding an interview with Maxwell. Instead, the department sent a written statement from spokesman Gates McGavick that said, in full:
“Any suggestion that Todd Blanche has acted unethically while serving as Deputy Attorney General is baseless and defamatory. This gossip column relies on innuendo and the word of an agenda-driven political hack to push a false narrative. This is not a serious article.”
Some of Blanche’s ex-colleagues are surprised by what they see as his transformation from the independent litigator they knew to one they say seems willing to prioritize his loyalty to Trump.
Mimi Rocah, who previously co-led the White Plains division in the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York with Blanche, said that it is “completely inappropriate and wrong” for him to interview Maxwell — both because of his relationship to Trump and because it is a job that should be reserved for prosecutors on the case, not a Justice official at the highest level.
Unless interview transcripts are released, it may be impossible to know whether and how much Blanche pursued questions about Trump’s possible mention in the Epstein files. For his part, Blanche has insisted his loyalty is to the Justice Department.
"This Department of Justice does not shy away from uncomfortable truths, nor from responsibility to pursue justice wherever the facts may lead,” Blanche said in a July 22 statement on X.

Press X to doubt.
Its crazy to me that these people hide behind the banner of “Saving America” when they are doing the exact opposite of that.

If Dems wanted to be smart about this, they would take a page out of the MAGA book and start selling “Department of Injustice” t-shirts in front of the White House
Also, they would be trying to get ahead of the fact that, the guy on their team that started pushing for the Epstein investigations has some pretty deep ties to Peter Thiel and investments in Palantir.
Why does this matter? Bc Thiel had/has his own ties to Jeffrey Epstein and Epstein’s estate.
This isn’t hidden information, but for some reason nobody is acknowledging it even though several stories about it broke in early June. I’m glad he’s exposing Trump, but Ro Kahnna seems like a total scumbag bc it really seems like he (as well as Vance and the broligarchs) probably knew all this stuff for a while, but chose to keep quiet about it until now. If that’s the case, he’s really not doing the Democrats any favors by being their poster boy for 2028.
I mean, you see where this is going right, no matter what the ultimate outcome is with Trump?
