Durbin: "Mr. Blanche's willingness to casually lie under oath about a statement he made in a roomful of witnesses shows the lengths he will go to to avoid offending President Trump."

CATO argues Bill Pulte could not legally serve after Jay Clayton was confirmed, so everything Pulte did in the last week (like firing a bunch of people) can be challenged. www.cato.org/blog/william...
