Todd Blanche threatens to prosecute lawmakers planning oversight probes
MS NOW reports that Attorney General Todd Blanche suggested on CNN's 'State of the Union' that Democratic lawmakers planning oversight probes into the Trump administration could face criminal prosecution, citing 'outright threats' such as Sen. Elissa Slotkin's 'deterrence message' to University of Chicago students. Democrats won both chambers in the 3 November midterms; incoming Oversight chair Rep. Robert Garcia says 'Lawyer up,' Rep. Jamie Raskin calls Blanche an impeachment target, and Sen.-elect Adam Hamilton would rather fight tariffs than investigate.
