North Carolina Republican Senator Thom Tillis sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee and holds a critical vote that could block Todd Blanche from being confirmed as Attorney General of the United States. With 12 Republicans and 10 Democrats on the committee, all 12 GOP votes are required to advance the nomination. Tillis has made clear he will not be one of them unless Blanche unambiguously condemns the January 6th attack on the Capitol as an insurrection incited by Donald Trump.
Hawk covers the broader context of six lame-duck Republican senators, including Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, and Mitch McConnell, forming an informal bloc to check Trump's most extreme moves over the next seven months. Trump has already tried to push Tillis out and is now calling him a "stone cold loser" aboard Air Force One, a reaction that reveals exactly how much leverage Tillis holds.
Trump's pattern of nominees evading direct questions about January 6th, combined with Tillis's firm position, sets up a confirmation fight with real consequences for the future of the Justice Department.
