Blanche says the probe is alive Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche told Maria Bartiromo that there is "a ton of evidence" tied to claims that the 2020 election was rigged, and he said the Justice Department has multiple investigations running in Arizona and Georgia, including Fulton County. That is a serious claim, and it lands with the usual government flair: bold language, careful wording, and a promise that answers will arrive after enough paperwork to wear out a copier.

Those waivers dropped site inspections and let restaurants and other non-school groups join the program. In plain English, the guardrails got thinner just as the money got faster. Omar introduced the MEALS Act in March 2020, which gave the USDA authority to issue those waivers. Bock says there were gaps when waivers expired and were renewed later,…
