16:27Now PlayingActing Attorney General Todd Blanche's prospects for getting confirmed to his role permanently have turned brighter ahead of a key committee vote Aug. 4, but his pathway to approval from the full Senate isn't assured yet.
On Tuesday, Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse addressed the Blanche's vote in the Senate Judiciary Committee, saying, "we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general of the United States."
Even if Blanche wins approval from the Senate committee, he will still need to get confirmation approval from the full Senate. A vote from the full body could take place before the end of the week, when senators may leave the capital for a scheduled August recess.
