Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche snapped when asked a simple question about his controversial prosecution of former FBI Director James Comey.
Blanche, who has been described as auditioning for the full-time AG role, took offense to that description during a live appearance on CBS Mornings.
The networks chief Washington correspondent, Major Garrett, asked him on Wednesday, Critics of you and this administration, Mr. Blanche, have suggested this is an audition to become the nominee to be attorney general. Is it?
Blanche fired back without hesitation: I dont even know what that means. We work hard every single day. The Department of Justice returns over 100 indictments across this country every single day, making this country safe. And so this narrative, this idea out there, that somehow Im auditioningIve worked with President Trump for many, many years. I dont audition for this job. Ive been the Deputy Attorney General for over a year. OK, this is not an audition.

(24,040 posts)I didn't like Bondi, but for me...personally...I didn't dislike her because she was a woman. I disliked her because she was a rude, angry, snarling, sarcastic and bullying creep.
I don't dislike men OR women "more" or "less" for those reasons. I just have no interest in enabling that behavior, whether it comes from a man or a woman.
Blanche is more like a slice of Wonder Bread with eyes and a mouth.
Bondi seemed to enjoy fucking with anyone who challenged her.
Blanche just takes a more dismissive "denial of the truth" stance.
