Todd Blanche is nearing confirmation as attorney general, a process advanced by his rescission of a $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization fund." This fund was originally designated for Trump allies. The rescission removes a significant obstacle to Blanche's confirmation. However, a controversial audit immunity plan involving Donald Trump, his sons, and the Trump Organization remains in effect. This plan is designed to potentially shield the involved parties from substantial back taxes, estimated to be in the millions. The details of this audit immunity plan and its implications for tax liabilities are a point of contention. The future of this plan and its impact on the Trump family and organization's financial obligations are still under consideration.
