Todd Blanche made clear in these secret calls with anti-choice activists that he wants to resurrect the Comstock Act – an antiquated anti-vice law from before women had the right to vote – to ban sending medication abortion in the mail.

Republicans will likely do what they always do and confirm Blanche as Attorney General despite all of this, and once again, women across America will pay the price.

TODD BLANCHE: Rest assured that we’re working hand in hand with HHS and the FDA and the White House and President Trump’s team to get permanent solutions so that the Dobbs decision becomes permanent in every single state.
A system that penalizes people for following its rules is fundamentally broken. ICE needs to be stripped down to the studs.
He defended the insurrection and the President’s hush-money payments. He has been and will always be a Trump loyalist. He’ll put the President’s interests over the interests of the nation and should not be confirmed.
Pretty clear Todd Blanche is just another yes-man who will sign off on the President’s worst ideas. Why would we trust someone who demonstrates he can’t stand up for what’s right?
Just a perfect example of this Administration putting money and corruption ahead of the health of our kids. MAHA where?

What happened after the meeting? Suddenly the FDA chief was ousted and restrictions on flavored vapes were lifted.
New reporting shows the President met with Big Tobacco at a golf club in Florida and promised he’d do pretty much anything the executives wanted in exchange for millions of dollars in political donations to his campaign.
We need an audit of the Pentagon now more than ever.
How can the Administration justify asking for a $1.5 trillion defense budget when the Pentagon has never even passed a full audit?
Epstein survivors have more courage in the tips of their fingernails than Todd Blanche has in his entire body
He tried screwing over his own supporters out of political spite.
Not to mention the $50,000,000 to upgrade our existing transmission lines shared with North Dakota.
Minnesotans deserve better than ridiculous partisan games.
Trump tried canceling $646,000,000 in infrastructure money for Minnesotans just because we didn’t vote for him. But the real kicker is that he tried blocking new transmission lines that would connect the grids in *Republican* states (SD, ND, IA, MO, NE and KS) just because they included Minnesota.
Refusing any type of independent investigation is not normal. Blocking local law enforcement fromreviewing evidence is not normal. ICE is beyond repair. We can no longer reform our way out of this. It is well time to strip it down to the studs and start over.
In the past two weeks, two more people were fatally shot by ICE agents: Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston and 26-year-old Jordan Sebastian Duran Guerrero in Maine. None of the agents involved were wearing body cameras.
And they wanted to know that no family or community would ever be forced to endure a tragedy like this, at the hands of a federal secret police force, again. Today, our fight is far from over.
The questions raised by Alex Pretti’s death have not gone away, they have only grown more urgent.
His compassion touched more lives than he probably ever realized.
Alex’s killing shook Minnesota and Americans everywhere. People wanted answers. They wanted accountability.
Six months ago, Alex Pretti was shot by federal immigration agents on the streets of Minneapolis, just 18 days after ICE fatally shot Renee Good. Alex was a 37-year-old intensive care nurse for veterans, an outdoorsman, a dog lover, a brother, and a son.
