Sen. Thom Tillis pressed acting Attorney General nominee Todd Blanche during his Senate confirmation hearing over the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Tillis asked whether Capitol Police officers injured during the riot were victims of heinous crimes, and Blanche responded that they were and that those responsible should have been prosecuted. The exchange later turned political, with Tillis accusing Democrats of applying a double standard by overlooking actions of the previous administration because it “happened to have a blue jersey.” Watch the full exchange from Capitol Hill.
