共和党参议员约翰·科尔尼因对特朗普与国税局的和解协议提出疑虑，威胁阻挠托德·布兰奇的司法部长提名投票1。布兰奇目前已担任代理司法部长，原定周四举行的参议院司法委员会投票面临推迟的风险1。
科尔尼要求司法部就特朗普的税务审计豁免协议范围提供书面保证1。他表示司法部"拒绝"满足这一要求，称"他们知道需要做什么，但就是拒绝去做"1。争议的另一焦点是一项已宣布停止的"反武器化基金"计划，该项目原计划投入17.76亿美元，司法部在6月宣布停止推进1。北卡罗来纳州共和党参议员托姆·蒂利斯也支持科尔尼的立场1。
Republican Senator John Cornyn is threatening to obstruct a Senate Judiciary Committee vote on Todd Blanche's nomination as attorney general unless the Justice Department provides written assurances regarding a tax settlement agreement with former President Donald Trump.1 Blanche, who is currently serving as acting attorney general, was scheduled for a committee vote on Thursday, but the nomination now faces the risk of delay.1
Cornyn has demanded guarantees clarifying the scope of Trump's tax audit exemption agreement and addressing concerns about a proposed "anti-weaponization fund."1 The Justice Department announced in June that it was halting efforts to advance the fund, which had been proposed at $1.776 billion.1 According to Cornyn, the department has refused to provide the written assurances he is seeking, stating: "They know what they need to do but they simply refuse to do it."1 Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina has aligned with Cornyn's position on this matter.1
