The Singular Failure of Pam Bondi

She will forever be remembered as the person who protected pedophiles in the service of the pedophile-in-chief Donald Trump. A disgusting person with no morals at all.

“President Trump had many good reasons to fire Attorney General Pam Bondi. He picked the single bad one,” says Jeffrey Toobin, a contributing writer to Times Opinion. “The core of Mr. Trump’s dissatisfaction with the attorney general was apparently her failure to serve his need for revenge against his enemies. She did not prosecute enough of Mr. Trump’s adversaries, and the cases she did bring were failures.” Jeffrey continues: >The deeper problems with Ms. Bondi’s leadership rested at the level of policy. Under Ms. Bondi, the Justice Department had all but stopped doing its job of prosecuting crime. Case loads are way down, and so are the numbers of prosecutors — almost certainly a result of Ms. Bondi’s leadership. The main reason for these changes is that instead of charging actual criminals, Ms. Bondi’s Justice Department has remade itself as the legal auxiliary of President Trump’s disastrous immigration enforcement practices. >The worst consequence of the Justice Department’s pursuit of cases involving otherwise law-abiding but undocumented individuals is that it has led to untold suffering among those targeted, their families and the economies they support. Ms. Bondi’s lawyers have spent considerable time and money on the harassment, and worse, of people who have done no harm to anyone.

They are all traitors.

> two likely successors, will not solve this problem unless the new attorney general makes the commitment, unlikely under the circumstances, that the Justice Department will return to its tradition of honesty and integrity. Unlikely indeed.

She didn't fail. She was put in place to do exactly what she did. She did it for as long as she could and then was of no further use to Trump. Then Trump simply cast her aside. We'll find out who the next human pawn is soon enough.

Pam Himmler’s legacy is that of a traitor and pedophile protector. Glad she’s gone, afraid of what’s next

SINGULAR? There are countless f****** failures...

“department — disrespectful of its honorable traditions, dismissive of critics, intolerant of dissent “ it’s not this department ; it’s literally the entire government

It's so refreshing to finally read an opinion piece where I agree with both the piece AND the author's stance on masturbating in front of colleagues! You go New York Times!

Her legacy is protecting rich pedophiles. That’s truly sad.
