  • President Donald Trump attacked Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) on Friday morning because Cornyn opposes Todd Blanche’s nomination as attorney general over the fund.

  • Cornyn lost the Texas Republican primary to Trump-backed Ken Paxton, and Trump threatened on July 30 to withdraw Blanche’s nomination until Cornyn and Thom Tillis leave office.

  • An IRS settlement granted Trump and his family immunity from tax audits and created the fund, which could pay Americans deemed to have been unfairly targeted by the government.

  • Tillis said later Friday morning on X that he and Cornyn were working with Blanche to end the fund, but his confirmation had stalled because a personal presidential adviser would not amend the settlement.
  • Perhaps there has never been a group of people treated so badly in our Nation’s history.
