Thursday on CNN’s “The Lead,” Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has turned the Justice Department into a “protection racket for the president.” And given the long list of malfeasance and infractions of Todd Blanche, the Justice Department is really hard to wrap your head around. He’s used the president to go after, and used the department to go after, the president’s enemies—one thing after another. And there’s simply no reason, as you pointed out, to believe he’s going to be any different. The president could choose someone who would not turn the Justice Department into this kind of protection racket for the president.”
