…Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the top Democrat on the #Senate #Judiciary Committee, said confirming #ToddBlanche would be a “serious mistake.” He begged his colleagues not to be on the “wrong side” of history.
“If there is ever a moment in history when we need an Attorney General above reproach, who is clearly dedicated to ending #corruption, even at the highest level of our government, it’s right now,” Durbin said.

#ToddBlanche was confirmed by the #Senate #judiciary committee in a 12-to-10 vote along party lines.
Blanche’s nomination now advances to the Senate floor, with a vote possible as early as this week. He is expected to be confirmed, even though several #Republicans have yet to commit to supporting him.

Still, even in its new form, #ToddBlanche’s order for the #IRS to abandon any audits of #Trump’s previous tax returns is an
unprecedented & “potentially” (definitely) illegal benefit to a sitting president, worth tens of millions of dollars in lower taxes & avoided penalties.#law #criminal #theft #fraud #JudicialProcess #judiciary #TaxpayersMoney #kleptocracy #MafiaState

The unsigned #IRS document posted by #ToddBlanche said that only #Trump, 2 of his sons & the #TrumpOrganization would be granted #immunity from audits, excluding a broader pool of Trump family members & their associates who appeared to be eligible for protection under the original #DOJ deal. Blanche also stipulated that their future tax returns could still be audited.

#ToddBlanche, the acting US #AG, confirmed in writing [1 unsigned] on Sunday night that the #DOJ would abandon “elements” of the deal it struck with #Trump to “resolve” his lawsuit against the #IRS, conceding to demands from Republican senators who had threatened to block his nomination as attorney general.

The Samson Strategy: How the Tinubu Government Pulled the Temple Down on Itself Over PFIPC by Lawson Akhigbe
The Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration appears to have forgotten that rule in its handling of the Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC) controversy. In its determination to destroy the credibility of one man, Prince Adeniyi Matthew Adeyemi, it may have inflicted collateral damage on something far more valuable: the credibility of official government documentation itself. -
The tax provision emerged as the biggest sticking point on the eve of a scheduled #Judiciary Cmte vote. Cornyn, a former state #judge who lost a primary to a #Trump backed challenger, Ken Paxton [total POS], said he had received no written assurances from #ToddBlanche that the #IRS audit shield would not apply to future tax liabilities or be extended to a wider circle of people.

#Asylum seekers could be sent directly to #deportation under new federal rule
The #Trump admin rule, which took effect immediately, could transfer nearly 450,000 cases to #immigration “judges” [immigration judges are part of the #DOJ not the #judiciary], who could dismiss the asylum petitions.#law #DueProcess #WhiteSupremacy #WhiteChristianNationalism #ICE #CBP #Sturmabteilung #MafiaState #AbuseOfPower #authoritarianism #autocracy #dictatorship #fascism #tyranny

IS Responds to Military Pressure in Nigeria
Despite Nigeria's assessment, the emerging consensus was that Lakurawa was not a unified entity but rather an umbrella term, and that attacks attributed to the group were likely perpetrated by a mix of Islamic State Sahel Province (ISSP). JNIM, bandits. and potentially a separate new group operating under the label without claiming responsibility.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/07/25/is-responds-to-military-pressure-in-nigeria/

The #StudentProtests in #India saw huge #police atrocities against the protesters. When activists went to India's #SupremeCourt asking for court's intervention, this is what the #ChiefJustice said.
Indian #Judiciary has become just a tool supporting the ruling regime."Don't waste our time," CJI SuryaKant on plea against police action on student protesters during #CJP march.
"We are not interested in videos, we don't have time to watch," Cll tells lawyer who said there are videos showing police atrocities.

#ToddBlanche’s confirmation hearing to become the 88th attorney general of the United States began with #Senate #Judiciary Committee #ChuckGrassley, #Republican of Iowa, welcoming him & giving opening remarks, followed by the tanking #Democrat on the committee, #DickDurbin of Illinois.
Durbin’s remarks were worth hearing, the rest not so much. Grassley’s were prebuttal & defensive, Blanche’s were all lies.
Sadly Durbin is retiring. He’s very good, but he is advanced in his years.

Dugan resigned the Milwaukee County circuit judgeship she had held for 9 years in January amid #threats of impeachment from #Republican state lawmakers who labeled her an activist judge. In her resignation letter, she said her prosecution threatened “the independence of our #judiciary.” Republican US Rep Tom Tiffany, a fierce #Trump loyalist running for #Wisconsin governor, urged authorities to “lock her up” on social media following her conviction.

So let me get this right: a #Labour government is releasing early #sexoffenders, (who should be called sex #criminals, it is a crime, not a mere offence), including those who r*ped CHILDREN, to make room in #prisons for people accused of #terrorism for throwing paint at armement companies profiteering from #genocide in #Palestine.
#Women's lives in the UK are worth less than cosmetic damage to property.https://www.channel4.com/news/sexual-abuse-survivors-terrified-over-plan-to-free-offenders-early
