Blanche Forces Out National Security Chief Over Media Leak Strategy
Attorney General Todd Blanche forced Assistant Attorney General John Eisenberg to resign after a dispute over the pace of investigations into media leaks. Eisenberg resisted Blanche’s push to subpoena reporters, citing standard protocols, while Blanche viewed the cautious approach as obstructing White House demands. The departure marks the third Senate-confirmed DOJ leader to leave this week following midterm elections.
