Thom Tillis and John Cornyn, have been opposed to Blanche\u2019s appointment until he can fully disavow the $1.8 billion Justice Department-brokered agreement Trump made with the IRS. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Speaking on The Daily Beast Podcast with host Joanna Coles, Weissman said that while he ultimately believes Blanche will be confirmed, it is \u201cuseful to have the senators say there is a line, you know, beyond which I will not cross.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRemember, there are two parts to the bogus settlement,\u201d he elaborated. \u201cAnd when I use bogus, that is a federal judge found that this whole ten-billion-dollar lawsuit was bogus and not and this was not in fact a \u2018settlement.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Weissman said the agreement consisted of two key provisions. The first was the creation of a fund that, according to reports, would compensate Trump allies. \u201cThe Department of Justice has now been doing that,\u201d he said, \u201cbut not using the fund. They\u2019ve been using other funds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The second provision, he argued, is what has become the real sticking point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was this general release that only Todd Blanche signed,\u201d Weissman said. \u201cThe acting attorney general giving an audit release of tax liability for Donald Trump, his family, and his companies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=4782\">MAGA Pundit Has Dire Warning for Trump<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Weissman suggested Trump was far more invested in preserving that portion of the agreement than the compensation fund.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe president seemed to be fine saying, \u2018Hey, I\u2019ll give up the fund because that\u2019s money that\u2019s not going to me,\u2019\u201d he said. \u201cBut when it comes to the tax audit &#8230; \u2018I\u2019ll be damned if I\u2019m giving up something for me that I got.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The White House did not respond to request for comment.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has been lashing out at Tillis and Cornyn for not stalling Blanche\u2019s confirmation, saying he will keep Blanche acting attorney general until January, when they are both no longer in office. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat seems to be the sticking point that you know, that\u2019s the thing that Todd Blanche either isn\u2019t willing to give up,\u201d Weissman concluded. \u201cOr isn\u2019t willing to give up because Donald Trump isn\u2019t willing to give it up.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><i><b>New episodes of The Daily Beast Podcast are released every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday on <\/b><\/i><i><b>YouTube<\/b><\/i><i><b>, and on <\/b><\/i><i><b>other podcast platforms<\/b><\/i><i><b> the next morning.
