The Trump administration announced Monday that it was replacing longtime Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden — fired last week for promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion programs — with Donald Trump’s former criminal defense lawyer, Todd Blanche.
Blanche is currently second-in-command at the Department of Justice, and will also serve as acting Librarian of Congress, according to Politico.
He famously defended Trump in his 2023 “hush money” case in which the then-former president was convicted on 34 felony counts.
