Attorney General Todd Blanche denies DOJ probing Democrats over speech
Blanche took a string of good probing questions about Nvidia and what the DOJ knew and when, and he's punting on all of them as though he's just hearing about the scandal now
Just a reminder that Nvidia sold ~$7.5 billion worth of chips to Megaspeed that were then passed to China This was while Trump owned shares in Nvidia bsky.app/profile/domi...
Follow up: “Mr. Blanche, do you think that’s at all problematic that the top law enforcement official of the United States is blissfully unaware of key facts and details about a scandal that compromises our national security?”
Someone tell me what’s wrong with Todd Blanche. Please. He looks like a normal corporate lawyer but he’ll throw his soul into the fire to defend Trump.
Any Trump employee who sluffs off a question pretending not to have heard of, just learning about, etc. yet should be impeached for dereliction of duties.If I told my boss I knew nothing about a key component of my job nor had sought to learn about something EVERYONE WAS TALKING ABOUT, I’d be fired.
He's taking a page from Mikey Johnson: "Gosh, this is the first I've heard about that..."
Ah, he's doing the Mike Johnson routine. He's dumber than I thought.
Virginia Giuffre’s brother on what happened when he confronted Trump’s DOJ about reopening the Epstein investigation and brought up Prince Andrew. He says Blanche told him: “Well, I can’t use that testimony because your sister’s not here and Prince Andrew is not going to cooperate with me.”

todd blanche is trump's ghislaine maxwell.
As a former prosecuter, he has the face to gaslight people that there is nothing he can do to hold sexual predators accountable if the victim is not there and the suspect is not co-operating. You don't need to be a lawyer to know this is BS.
"Sorry, we only get involved when the assailant is an undocumented immigrant or a Democrat."
I guess that means we shouldn't investigate a murder because the victim isn't here and the suspect won't cooperate.
He should’ve slapped him across the face right then and there.
What the little girls who were abducted kidnapped, trafficked, held prisoner and raped multiple times. Their privacy was violated countless times. Todd Blanche's excuse saying they were concerned the people's names being mentiined and concerned abiut THEIR privacy is complete bullshit!
Besides how amazing this information is.... I am loving how we all watched independent journalism blossom to fill the gaps when mainstream deserted us @katiephang.bsky.social has been killing it
Why is Todd Blanche and the Trump DOJ not providing access to international law enforcement agencies to the unredacted Epstein Files?
DoJ is the thug consigliere for Trump and the MAGA Regime, a lawless operation I think we will need an ENFORCEMENT operation added to the Constitution and/or statutes that allow (marshals?) in both Article I and III to handle the rare cases when the regular Article II service (ie DoJ) goes Nazi
Because dear leader was part of the sex trafficking ring and Todd is trying to cover it up.

It’s time for the Truth to come out
Blanche thinks the rapists on Epstein’s island are the victims. Sick people in this administration.
Pretty sure King Charles would love nothing more than to ship Andrew off somewhere and then was his hands of the guy forever.
Multiple reporters are getting the NYT reporting on Commerce investigation into Nvidia wrong. It's not JUST that Lutnick let Nvidia bigfoot the investigation. It's that the ENTIRE investigation was moved to DOJ, presumably to kill it. emptywheel.net/2026/11/13/d...
This is PRECISELY how Bill Barr protected Rudy for knowingly soliciting dirt from Russian spies in Trump 1.0. 1) Compartment the investigation. 2) Charge fall guys (including Todd Blanche's client Igor Fruman) 3) Kill the Rudy part
Not unlike what happened with the Zelensky phone call debacle, which also failed.
Every time I read Lutnick, I know something seedy and awful will follow.
I do hope an investigation will be opened on Trump’s selling of Nvidia stock in July 2026, two months after Rubio briefed him on the Huang/Huang relationship. The corruption never stops with this guy, does it? #InsiderTrading
There have been Depts of Justice that were more or less effective or vigorous, but never before one where serious felony cases go to die. Executed as they walk in the door. People will look back on this era and refuse to believe it was all true.
I think Trump was all in on killing the investigation.
"If Jensen Huang knew — if David Sacks, depicted as Huang’s mouthpiece favoring sales to China knew — that Megaspeed was diverting restricted chips to China, that’s a crime, no matter what kind of information got shared back to Chinese spies."
This scandal is growing by the day. Now, Lutnick & the DOJ are involved in it.
