Republicans ignore a letter from more than 1200 former Justice Dept employees opposing Blanche...

...if they proceed with his confirmation?

They believe he surrendered his principles in support of one individual.

Up to this point, the Republicans have ignored all the earth-shaking evidence against Todd Blanche. It was thought that Thom Tillis and John Cornyn might stand against Blanche, since they are leaving office, but it appears that both of them will vote to send Blanche out of Committee?

But, something is seriously wrong with a Party that can ignore such widespread opposition to a candidate. Especially one with a record like Blanche. When his fellow workers tell you to beware, then perhaps you should listen?

Any hope that Republicans would stand up for the law or moral principles is just another tilt at the windmill.
