Critics have raised concerns about his past actions and independence, with over 1,200 former DOJ employees opposing his nomination. As Blanche prepares for a grilling by the Senate, he must navigate questions regarding his oversight of key prosecutions, ties to Trump, and handling of DOJ controversies, including the Epstein case.
