In a recent episode of *Last Week Tonight*, John Oliver took a unique and humorous approach to critique Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's overtly obsequious remarks regarding his position under President Trump. Oliver, known for his sharp wit and incisive commentary, did not hold back in his assessment of Blanche’s statements to the media.

During the segment, Oliver aired a clip where Blanche expressed his unconditional reverence for President Trump, saying, “It’s the greatest honor of a lifetime. And if President Trump chooses to keep me as acting, that’s an honor. If he chooses to nominate me, that’s an honor. If he chooses to nominate somebody else and I go back to being the DAG, that’s an honor. If he chooses to nominate somebody else and asks me to go do something else, I will say thank you very much. I love you, sir.” A display of loyalty that Oliver mockingly likened to a desperate audition for the permanent Attorney General role.

Reacting to the clip, Oliver exclaimed, “Jesus, Todd! There is sucking up and whatever that was!” He then creatively diagnosed Blanche’s statement as a freestyle version of Dr. Seuss's *Green Eggs and Ham*, showing just how far Blanche would go to please the president. This led to the unveiling of a fictitious Dr. Seuss book cover titled *Brown Nose Goes H.A.M.*

Oliver continued by reading aloud from the parody book with lines such as, “I’d kiss his ass on a boat, I’d tickle his balls with a goat,” and concluding with, “I love the president with my soul, I yield to him my every hole.” This satirical take not only elicited laughter from the audience but also underscored the extremity of Blanche's allegiance.

This portrayal comes at a time when Blanche's actions and public statements as Acting Attorney General have been under scrutiny. His tenure has been marked by controversial decisions and statements that align closely with the president’s interests, including defending a questionable $1.8 billion DOJ slush fund and advocating for the president’s right to direct criminal investigations against political adversaries.

Blanche, who left a partnership at Cadwalader to become Trump’s personal criminal defense attorney, has seemingly secured his position, though not without sacrificing a measure of dignity, according to Oliver’s biting commentary.

By transforming Blanche's professional groveling into a Dr. Seuss-style narrative, Oliver highlights the often absurd lengths to which political figures may go to secure their positions, providing not only a moment of levity but a sharp critique of current political dynamics.
