A Raw Story report highlights comments made by Acting U.S.Attorney General Todd Blanche during an interview with NewsNation host Katie Pavlich.According to the article, Blanche stated that he is putting 'roadblocks' in place within the Department of Justice (DOJ) to prevent what he described as future politically motivated prosecutions of President Donald Trump after his presidency ends.Blanche argued that these measures are intended to stop similar legal actions from occurring again should Democrats regain political power.The article presents these remarks as part of a broader pattern of actions that critics claim favor Trump personally.

It cites a recent settlement involving the disclosure of Trump's tax records, in which Blanche reportedly signed an addendum stating that the federal government would be permanently barred from pursuing certain IRS audit or tax claims against Trump, his family, and associated businesses.

Critics mentioned in the report dispute the administration's interpretation of the agreement and question whether it could affect future tax-related actions.

The report also references Blanche's involvement in defending a proposed taxpayer-funded anti-weaponization initiative before it was ultimately withdrawn following opposition from Senate Republicans.

Additionally, it recalls remarks Blanche made at a Federalist Society conference, where he encouraged young lawyers to join what he described as a battle against judges whom he viewed as improperly obstructing the Trump administration's agenda.Those comments reportedly drew criticism from a group of former federal judges.

Blanche previously served as Trump's personal criminal defense attorney and represented him in several criminal cases before joining the administration.The article frames his recent actions and statements as evidence of an unusually close relationship between the Justice Department and the president.
