There are idioms that include the word blanco, with 'target' being the meaning. I've added them to our idiom dictionary.
I couldn't find an exact match for the OP's version, though. The meaning I took from the expression is 'to be the butt/target of all the insults', but that isn't a known idiomatic expression in English. |

I've never heard the OP's phrase as a settled idiom in Spanish either, although it might be a regional thing.
