Justice Department's Todd Blanche appointed acting Librarian of Congress

The Department of Justice's second-in-command can add "librarian" to his résumé. Todd Blanche has been appointed acting Librarian of Congress, the Justice Department confirmed Monday.

Blanche is President Trump's former personal criminal attorney. It is unclear if the career lawyer has previously done work involving the Dewey Decimal System (or the Library of Congress Classification system).

Two other Justice Department officials have also added Library of Congress positions to their portfolios.
