AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

DOJ Confirmation Fight: The U.S. Senate confirmed Todd Blanche as attorney general in a razor-thin 50-49 vote early Saturday, with every Democrat voting no and only two Republicans—Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski and Maine Sen. Susan Collins—joining them; Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy provided the deciding yes after weeks of doubts about Blanche’s independence and his role in a controversial IRS settlement. Trump vs. Murkowski: Hours after the vote, President Trump attacked Murkowski online, calling her a “traitor” for opposing Blanche while having supported Merrick Garland. Alaska Politics, National Reach: The confirmation fight is now tied to broader debates over DOJ independence and election-related enforcement, with Blanche already leading the department in an acting role. Earthquake Shake-Up: A magnitude 5.6 earthquake rattled parts of Alaska near Denali National Park, with reports of shaking felt in Anchorage, Hope, and Kenai. Local Legal Numbers: The Alaska Bar Association reported more active lawyers in Fairbanks North Star Borough in July, while Petersburg Borough saw no change. SNAP Timing for Alaskans: Alaska’s SNAP benefits are scheduled for August 1.
