Blanche defends Trump's criticism of Supreme Court over mail-in voting ruling
Attorney General Blanche said Trump "should communicate his concerns" after the president criticized justices for blocking his executive order on mail-in ballots.
President Trump accused the Supreme Court of "really let our country down" after the justices blocked his executive order restricting mail-in voting ahead of midterm elections. Attorney General Blanche responded by acknowledging that Trump has a right to express disagreement with the court's decision.
The hearing comes as FBI Director Kash Patel testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Senator Dick Durbin criticized Patel as "the least qualified and most partisan FBI director in our nation's history," while the bureau faces allegations of being used as a political tool.
