Bondi says the independence of the Justice Department is gone. Also: Two federal courts block Trump's effort to end birthright citizenship. Expect appeals.
👁️. It would be another Jack Smith type scenario for the MAGA Loyalists to attack & threaten that person. . ANYONE who steps in, will be attacked. Point one.
Point two...The so called President (Autocrat) will destroy their life. Idk how long people will keep fighting in THIS highly toxic, & career damaging atmosphere from MAGA. They go after people like their insane!!! 👁️ I just hope the Constitutional Warriors can pull it off or WE ARE a full scale Autocracy within 6 months !!!!
"It is the job of an attorney privileged to serve in the Department of Justice to zealously defend the interests of the United States. Those interests, and the overall policy of the United States, are set by the Nation's Chief Executive, who is vested by the Constitution with all ‘[E)xecutive Power,’..."
With the overrunning of the DoJ, and the supination of Congress, there is no “[E]ecutive power … just total power by an egoist who laughs at the rule of law.
A complete SHAM from hell !!!! The STENCHY SWAMP Monster Party 🥳 that God will destroy. Yeeeha. God help us. 👀. We can't do it alone. God is their tool too. They use God as a weapon. They don't understand God at all. Stupidity MAGA.
OMG 😱 and the Democrats voted for her ??! We're Doomed, Chris, this Memo spells out Treason. The Department of Justice is for the People, not the President. Thank You, and will reStack ASAP 💯👍🇺🇸
Do I have this right? Bondi wants to restore review and accountability so that the Trump DOJ can go after the people who were tasked with reviewing actions and holding accountable Donald Trump along with the people who attacked Congress.
Yes, that's the conservative theory of 'government' :(
I love the typo in Bondi's quote, although I don't know if it's from Chris or the original quote (MAGA are known for not being able to spell):
"it undermines the constitutional order und deprives the President of the benefit of his lawyers"
'und' of course is the German word for 'and'. Freudian slip? Just sayin'.
It's always projection with these people. When they say the previous administration weaponized the justice system to target political opponents, what they mean is that they are going to weaponize the justice system to target political opponents. This is not a drill, and all of their steps have been telegraphed in advance, from January 6th to Project 2025 and everything in between.
I think whether and how we survive depends on if we can somehow preserve first amendment protections. If the American public fully loses the ability to know what's going on around them, we're in deep, deep, deep trouble.
Even if one accepted the Trump's premise that Biden's DOJ was weaponized (which of course I don't), I never understood why anyone would think that the solution to weaponization is more weaponization.
We have regular people and orgs suing in courts that aren't severely compromised (i.e. anywhere but Texas). And good strong cases make it difficult for SCOTUS to overturn.
And we make noise. We never stop making noise. We protest, protest, protest, and point out every evil awful thing they do. Every single one. For four long years.
This is especially scary for healthcare: her order to “examine “[c]riminal prosecutions under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act for non-violent protest activity.“ She just green lit anti abortion activists to go and terrorize patients.
Yes. State and local governments need to find ways to step up, because the federal government is now firmly on the side of the anti-abortion terrorists.
I remember AG Elliott Richardson resigned during Watergate after refusing an inappropriate order from President Nixon. Richardson's deputy William Ruckelshaus also resigned.
Yes, they’re lying fascist revolutionaries who don’t give a damn about law, custom, or morality and who, all else aside, will, via carbon, destroy your children’s future.
You’ve noticed we the people voted our side into the minority, right? That insurrectionist side is fully in charge of the whole shooting match so what we can do is what you’re now seeing being done. My own personal opinion is the vote was screwed with but without protests at the time, that ship has sailed too. This mess is intentional straight out of Bannon’s playbook and that of Project 2025. Voters were well warned but elected him anyway. We now have to work with what we currently have which isn’t all that much now. If we get to vote again, I hope we can do better.
“ My own personal opinion is the vote was screwed with but without protests at the time, that ship has sailed too.” Sadly, I’ve thought that too, “but we had to take the high road” at that juncture.
How the fuck do people this damn dumb make it into these high level positions? I nearly vomited reading that unprofessional drivel from Pam Bondi. This isn't a political rally, it's her goddam job. Like, SHE GOT THE JOB. Keep the political hyperbole, hyper-partisan, and frankly ignorant garbage out of official communications.
Professionalism is dead.
As always, thank you for all your hard work Chris.
Bondi’s order—just who is she writing for? Trump, of course. Neither she nor Trump need orders anymore, they just do whether it’s legal or not. And any paperwork - or trail - will fall into Marco Rubio’s hands as the new master archivist.
Finally, unintended irony: Bondi would “restore” the DoJ core values in thevsame savvy fashion she dismissed the obviously wrong fraud investigation into Trump U.
She lied under oath when she said she would serve under the constitution of the US, not the president. She should be disbarred!
Everyone who’s testified in front of the Senate committee has lied under oath. EVERY LAST ONE.
Yes.. but she’s AG and should be disbarred for her actions. The others don’t need a license to practice law
wishing lying under oath, like s. court nominees who said Roe was settled law and then voted to rescind it, would be cause for immediate removal.
AND who will disbar her??

Yes. It's so disgusting.

The CONSTITUTION!!!!! BINGO. Not illegal means to wreck America zealously and INSANELY.

They are ignoring judges orders already
Do I have this right? Bondi wants to restore review and accountability so that the Trump DOJ can go after the people who were tasked with reviewing actions and holding accountable Donald Trump along with the people who attacked Congress.
Yes
YES. 😂. Sheer stupidity!! Incompetent brain she IS
A Sell OUT SHAM. UnAmerican Underbelly Agendas ✔️. The Autocracy.
That twenty-five grand “donated” to Bondi’s campaign, has really paid off—to cheapskate Trump, a skilled move with minimum pain.
The birthright thing will die a quick death. And no, SCOTUS won't touch it.
As for Bondi, not going to forgive Fetterman voting for her.
His vote was bitterly disappointing.
Yes, that's the conservative theory of 'government' :(

If the DOJ is entirely compromised, what defenses do we, as the public, have left? Law isn't going to save us, so how shall we save ourselves?

Republicans actually had some integrity back then
She should be removed immediately, the DOJ works for the people of the United States NOT the president 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎😡🤬
Yes, they’re lying fascist revolutionaries who don’t give a damn about law, custom, or morality and who, all else aside, will, via carbon, destroy your children’s future.
So what are we going to do about it?
You’ve noticed we the people voted our side into the minority, right? That insurrectionist side is fully in charge of the whole shooting match so what we can do is what you’re now seeing being done. My own personal opinion is the vote was screwed with but without protests at the time, that ship has sailed too. This mess is intentional straight out of Bannon’s playbook and that of Project 2025. Voters were well warned but elected him anyway. We now have to work with what we currently have which isn’t all that much now. If we get to vote again, I hope we can do better.
So wait to vote is the plan? How about acting outside the electoral system? You know: the rest of politics?
“ My own personal opinion is the vote was screwed with but without protests at the time, that ship has sailed too.” Sadly, I’ve thought that too, “but we had to take the high road” at that juncture.
This is what happens when a criminal is elected president and the courts tell him that he is literally above the law.
