Todd Blanche, US Attorney General candidate, withdraws the millionaire fund to compensate Trump's allies

Donald Trump's candidate for US Attorney General, Todd Blanche, a former lawyer who cleared the president of several corruption charges in the past, will withdraw the controversial proposal to create a $1.8 billion fund to compensate those who felt persecuted by justice during Democratic President Joe Biden's term. Blanche has also pledged to limit tax immunity for the president and his family. The move is aimed at convincing Republican senators who are hesitant about his nomination as head of the Justice Department.
