Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR): “Todd Blanche is not fit to serve as attorney general of the United States!”
Danielle Bensky, Epstein survivor: “The numbers speak for themselves. Over 1,000 victims…3.5 million files released…6 million files full of investigative leads…5 administrations…30 years of evidence. Zero—ZERO—criminal investigations.”
Alva Johnson, Trump accuser: “We should not have to be the most courageous people here. So for Tillis and for Cornyn and for any of the other Republicans…every single day is a new day for you to make a better decision than what you’ve done before.”
Liz Stein, Epstein survivor: “A system built by Jeffrey Epstein & his co-conspirators around power, coercion, exploitation, and access to wealth & influence. Many Americans still don’t understand what that means, because if they did, they'd never accept the way the Epstein files have been handled.”
Cheyenne Hunt, Executive Director of Reckoning Action: “We have seen the Epstein accomplices named and face no accountability for their egregious crimes. Now, we’re on the cusp of elevating one of those men, who was complicit in this cover-up, to the position of attorney general.”
Jena-Lisa Jones, Epstein survivor: “My experience has reinforced my belief that no one should be above the law, and that every survivor deserves to be heard, respected, and treated with dignity. This is why I strongly oppose Todd Blanche serving as attorney general.”
Sky Roberts, brother of Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts Giuffre: “Todd Blanche, the American people weren’t born yesterday, and justice doesn’t run out of leads.”
Amanda Roberts, sister-in-law of Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts Giuffre: “These pages are the physical evidence of human suffering. Behind every document is a person, a survivor, a life that was damaged while people in positions of power looked away.”
Danielle Bensky, Epstein survivor: “Let’s be clear: the only perpetrator Todd [Blanche] has met with was moved to a lower-security penitentiary, where she does yoga and eats Brie cheese.”
Sharlene Rochard, Epstein survivor: “Todd Blanche has not led a criminal investigation. He has been in charge of a criminal cover-up by the very department we are told to trust.”

Trump thinks he has ‘doomsday’ powers to steal votes. He's wrong. But take him seriously.
