WHAT EVERYONE IS MISSING ABOUT TODD BLANCHE, TRUMP'S NEW ATTORNEY GENERAL REPLACING PAM BONDI
Something that nobody is talking about concerning Todd Blanche replacing Pam Bondi as Attorney General, allegedly over her handling of the Epstein files, is the fact that Blanche is also oddly & curiously the head of the Library of Congress.
"So what?" you say? Well, consider:
▪️As head of the Library of Congress, Blanche has access to & control over restricted presidential papers and other archive materials that would let him gatekeep or selectively release sensitive historical documents that could create political leverage, or cover-up wrongdoing. He has the power to write or rewrite the "history of the future" related to this administration.
▪️As head of the Library of Congress, he could quietly steer Copyright Office decisions on AI "Fair-Use" rules and digital deposits. Imagine subtle policy tweaks that let certain entities (government contractors? favored tech firms?) scrape vast troves of copyrighted material without backlash, while others get crushed. Or, he could arrange back-channel access to the Copyright Office's massive digital database—millions of unpublished or pre-release files that function like a pre-publication surveillance goldmine on tech, media, and innovation. Unnoticed by the public. It could shape the entire future of AI, crypto/NFT IP.
▪️He could influence the Congressional Research Service (CRS) to slant "neutral" reports that lawmakers rely on for literally all their bills—including those involving DOJ policy, surveillance, immigration, and investigations. The Public barely knows CRS exists—reports are often marked "for congressional use only" or buried in obscure portals. He could theoretically influence (or at least monitor) the research pipeline on national security, DOJ/FBI matters, surveillance laws, or Epstein-adjacent files. Want to soft-pedal a report that might embarrass the executive branch? Or ensure "friendly" framing on immigration enforcement or crypto policy? It's the perfect backdoor into legislative thinking without anyone screaming "executive over-reach."
These powers, combined with his ongoing DOJ role as Attorney General, open the door to cronyistic favors for Trump, Trump's backers, and questionable cross-branch coordination between the legislative & executive branches that most Americans would never notice, or just be altogether invisible to the public eye.
Am I the only one not comfortable with this arrangement?
