Senate Judiciary Committee hit a major roadblock in the confirmation process for Attorney General nominee Todd Blanche.

The controversy centers on a $10 billion lawsuit settlement between President Trump and the IRS.

Because Democrats on the committee are expected to vote against Blanche, the support of Cornyn and Tillis is essential for the nomination to move forward.
