Todd Blanche, recently confirmed to a senior administration post, has mounted a shield bearing Sen. Bill Cassidy\'s likeness on his office wall. The Louisiana Republican, long viewed as a potential swing vote, backed the nomination despite earlier signals of hesitation. RFK Jr. reportedly displayed the same item during his own tenure. The arrangement underscores ongoing tensions within the GOP over loyalty tests and confirmation battles. The piece portrays Cassidy\'s support as another instance of yielding under pressure rather than a principled stand.
