Attorney General Pam Bondi has been fired, a senior administration official and a source familiar with the matter told NBC News.
Donald Trump had grown “more and more frustrated” with Bondi in recent days, a person familiar with White House deliberations said, adding that while he likes her as a person, he doesn’t think she has “executed on his vision” in the way that he wants.
According to a source familiar with the decision, Todd Blanche will be the acting attorney general, effective immediately.
It’s a revolving door of fascists. So don’t expect anything better. Most likely worse as things continue to devolve.
Imagine working for rapist Donald Trump knowing you’re going to get thrown under the bus and be a pariah for the rest of your life. Gotta be real stupid and/or evil.
People new on the job do not have their bearings. While they certainly can break a lot of things really quickly, generally they can’t do many things until they learn all the things that they can do and how to do them. Also bear in mind that this has already been going on for over a year, so many of the more breakable things are already pretty broken.
I think that if you disagree with the people in power, it is actually to your benefit if they are in greater disarray. I think that its true as others have said that there will be no investigations of wrongdoing for guilty people that are dismissed like Kristi Noem and possibly also Pam Bondi, but the revolving door they’re creating may still be to their detriment.
