Todd Blanche is confirmed as the next U.S. attorney general following a tightly contested Senate vote, with President Donald Trump expected to swear him in soon. Multiple outlets report the confirmation occurs late Saturday into the early hours of Sunday, and that Blanche faces an imminent transition to lead the Justice Department.

The reporting also notes Blanche’s confirmation journey as arduous and, in some accounts, marked by a divisive hearing. Mint and ABC Australia describe concerns among some lawmakers about his ability or willingness to restrain Trump, given that Blanche has been closely associated with the president as a former personal attorney and had been acting in the Justice Department leadership role after Pam Bondi was fired in April.

While some outlets emphasize the narrow margin as a significant win for Trump, Forbes highlights Blanche’s attempt to address independence concerns. In a “Meet the Press” interview, Blanche refuses to pledge independence from the White House, instead saying the Justice Department would act “with integrity” under his leadership. Other outlets focus more on the mechanics and timing of the confirmation and swearing-in.
