About this episode

The episode discusses the potential ethics review of Todd Blanche as he approaches confirmation as Attorney General.

Will Todd Blanche be parred sometime after he’s likely confirmed as the Attorney General of the United States? Will bar regulators for New York and the District of Columbia do the right thing to ensure that he complies with his ethics and professional responsibilities? Popok is joined by Lawyers Defending American Democracy (LDAD) and Graves to discuss the impact of Bar complaints and Department of Justice alumni protest letters in both the confirmation process and its aftermath.
