US Senate Confirms Todd Blanche as Attorney General
The US Senate has narrowly confirmed Todd Blanche as the new Attorney General, despite concerns over his independence. The confirmation comes as President Trump continues to push for the removal of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook. Meanwhile, a federal appeals court has blocked Trump's $400 million ballroom project, citing the need for Congressional approval. The US economy also saw a surprise loss of 23,000 jobs in the latest jobs report, but experts say the labor market remains resilient.
