RedditsuxBREAKING: Pam Bondi Reportedly to Be Ousted as AG ‘Imminently’
Next stop - prosecution.
where do you think we are?
this is a Wendy’s
Sir, this a Lemmy’s
No. The state should not have the power to kill its own people.
An angry mob can do the job just fine.
Write that in a newspaper under your real name then, coward
She is supposed to testify about the Epstein files again on the 14th. Coincidence?
Also, there are blatant incompetents all over this administration. Notably Hegseth and Patel have both been rumored to be on the chopping block at various points. It’s telling that so far only the women are being punished. And replaced with men.
the only reason the GOP employs women is to make conservative women feel like women matter to the GOP. since they’re obviously planning on stealing the midterm elections, then those votes don’t matter anymore, since votes don’t matter anymore.
CharlesDarwinAnd then so many con women will be as pikachu-faced as so many trad wives are right now…“wait? all that manly toxic bullshit I’ve been repeating as well is going to be applied to me, too?”
“wait? all that manly toxic bullshit I’ve been repeating as well is going to be applied to me, too?”
I’m convinced that some people are masochists.
SteveBut this time the Dow is below 50,000. By Bondi’s own rules, stuff matters again.
Seriously though, while there were no consequences for the administration other than looking dumb, she made them look really fucking dumb. She would have to answer new questions about the shady and sloppy redactions, the disappearing documents specifically related to Trump, and the fact that despite the order for full release, only around half of the files were ever made available. She already demonstrated that she can’t handle pressure. I think they’re worried that it could go even worse the next time.
I don’t know, but I somewhat suspect that she let them, or someone, know that she’s going to cover her own ass over Trump’s. She’ll eventually be held for contempt of Congess, whether it’s while Trump is in office or after (assuming there is an after). Maybe she saw the writing on the wall that there will be consequences and got the fuck out while she could. If I’m in charge, she’d still face severe consequences, but I’m not, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she faces next to none now.
Aren’t blondes his type though? You’d think he’d stack his administration with them, Luke a bunch of Karoline Leavitt / Kayleigh Mcannany clones.
There was also Bovino who’s been replaced. It’s not been just women.
It may be nitpicking, but Bovino was just removed from leading the operation in Minneapolis. He kept his job and was allowed to retire. He was rumored to have been headed for retirement before the ops fuckups in MN. I’m sure that the administration hastened his timeline, but he was spared the indignity of a public firing.
I had forgotten how that went down exactly. Thank you for pointing that out.
Because the white bobbleheaded bimbos they put into visible positions of power were intended to be scapegoats from the beginning. You don’t think this administration actually thinks women should be in politics or even respected as human beings, do you? The end goal is Handmaid’s Tale.
I always view most of the females in his admin as a version of Serena.
When they show the “before times”; she is the one pitching all of the crazy; turns out she ends up just like today’s trad wives seem to. The leopards ate her face…
that committee says she still needs to appear.
LucidlethargyIf he hires people that are incompetent, his followers won’t notice he’s demented and also incompetent.
The Times‘ Tyler Pager had previously reported that “President Trump has discussed firing Attorney General Pam Bondi in recent days as he grows frustrated with her leadership at the Justice Department and her handling of the Epstein files” on Wednesday. “Among his top complaints is Ms. Bondi’s handling of the Epstein files, which has become a political liability for Mr. Trump among his supporters. He has also complained about her shortcomings as a communicator and vented about what he sees as the department’s lack of aggressiveness in going after his foes, according to people who have spoken to him recently.”
Well, about the only catharsis we get is watching the most awful people stab each other in the back.
Bondi should be in jail. But Trump’s complaints are incredible here. They were:
- the Epstein files? So apparently Bondi released files where his name appears over a million times instead of the original probably three million+, but not the desired zero.
- her communication? She was already criminally non-responsive in congressional testimony, which is to say, utterly and completely sycophantic and combative - how much more can he even ask.
- not going after his foes? No attorneys save freaking Habba and Halligan would even sign onto ultimately frivolous, grand-jury-rejected indictments.
So the lesson to Zeldin (and Rubio and anyone else still trying to ride the power train) is: sycophancy isn’t enough. It’s not enough to swear on your life that the emperor has no clothes and maintain the lie even in the face of basic grade-school knowledge.
No, Zeldin will be tasked to gouge out the eyes of anyone who might be able to see it.
Not a victory, he’ll just scrape the barrel deeper for the next moron.
I do think it’s somewhat a victory. These types of jobs come with a lot of process knowledge that is very important to be effective. The more turnover in these roles, the more time they have to spend getting up to speed on how things work and the less they can accomplish. The less they can accomplish, the better off the country will be. I figure (guesstimate) that it impacts department productivity by at least 10% which is better than nothing.
I’ll believe it when I see it
ExtremeDullardBondi probably has the goods on Trump. Firing her isn’t too smart…
THIS is the Thanks she gets for spending her ENTIRE CAREER defending Child Raping Pedophiles? TERRIBLE!
-Republican Voters!
A cushy private sector job and the ability to say fuck all about anything when she’s supposed to be interviewed again less than 2 weeks from now? And gets to escape any accountability for treason?
These right wing ghouls always manage to stick around. They’re like cockroaches. Look at how many of the exact same people who lied us into Iraq are still being featured in the news programs, this time selling the Iran war. Those people should have died in prison for the thousands of innocent lives they took. Instead they’re still alive, free, and able to go out in public without people throwing rocks at them.
I have no idea how anyone, no matter how shitty they are, go to work for this asshole. They burn up any last shred of dignity or respect they may have had and almost all of them get thrown under the bus eventually anyway.
You have to be a special kind of terrible AND stupid to do anything for Taco.
The thanks she is getting is failing upwards into a highly paid private sector job. I think she’ll be just fine
Aaaaannnddd…
Shes gone. BBC News - www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cd9gjwdw9ygt Pam Bondi out as Trump’s attorney general - BBC News
I’m sure she can find a new career as a lot lizard somewhere on the gulf coast.
Pam Blondi, Real Estate broker on duty.
So… from professional lapses to prolapses?
The Dow is only at 46,000, you gotta go Pam.
FredselfishNow I hope we can bring her to justice. She still needs to be held accountable.
etherphonDidn’t even last a year. Thank God.
I wonder if she gets to keep the burn book or any of her favorite Epstein files as a memento
And if so it would be a real shame if any of that were to leak. I mean it would serve him right for removing such an obviously competent and loyal AG.
But that would be unconscionable. Right?
And nothing of value was lost. Same result when this administration will finally be ousted. Same result when Trump dies. Same result when his family and all the MAGA morons fade into obscurity or die. I just hope I’m alive to see it happen and I will drink and dance when this nightmare is finally over.
RememberTheApollo_Nothing lost, and she’ll be replaced with another just like her, so nothing gained.
The snake has many heads.
The only way to defeat the hydra is with fire.
Sent to a farm upstate. Er, the private sector.
Hopefully the DOW! is high enough for her to land work…probably attacking all things American while protecting pedophiles?
Nothing is progress according to ok lemmy.world
