Blanche accuses ‘Face the Nation’ host of ‘misleading’ description of Alaska election lawsuit

Attorney General Todd Blanche accused Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan of providing a misleading description regarding the DOJ lawsuit over the Alaska Senate race. The legal challenge concerns two candidates with similar names appearing on the ballot. During Sunday morning appearances, Blanche declined to specify the circumstances behind the filing or confirm if President Donald Trump directed the DOJ to pursue the lawsuit, despite previous statements suggesting the President had ordered the legal action.
