US Senate narrowly confirms Todd Blanche as attorney general in overnight vote
The US Senate on Saturday voted 50-49 to confirm President Donald Trump's former personal lawyer Todd Blanche as the country's attorney general. Blanche was serving as the top US law enforcement officer in an acting capacity after Trump fired another loyalist, Pam Bondi. His confirmation caps one of the most contentious cabinet fights of the second Trump presidency.
