Glenn Thrush, Alan Feuer, and Devlin Barrett report:

Attorney General Todd Blanche has delivered the same message time and again, at turns soothing and combative: The Justice Department is doing nothing out of the ordinary, and nothing remotely improper, in the lead-up to the midterm elections. 

“We don't do political paybacks,” Mr. Blanche declared last week, after he announced the indictment of a prominent Virginia Democrat on drug-trafficking charges. 

“You got to stop it with that!” the usually measured Mr. Blanche said on Sunday, scolding Dana Bash of CNN for suggesting his effort to potentially block certification of Alaska’s Senate election to protect the Republican incumbent was undemocratic. 

Yet it has become increasingly difficult to reconcile reassurances with reality, critics say. [emphasis added]
