As a MAGA hater, I agree. Then we can go after others doing the same. Any stock trades look weird? Bust that ass!

Maybe didn't read the article and why they are investigating her. It’s cause she said local cops should arrest ICE officers who are breaking the law.
edit: Pelosi’s statement that triggered this

That is funny. No the ICE is above the law. Trump can't even attack his enemies right.
Trump would fight a short person on his knees.

I added Pelosi’s statement to the comment. They called that “interfering with an investigation”. lol.

Don’t investigations typically involve warrants when you really need to get info from/about specific people or places? I haven’t heard of many, if any, warrants being used in these. Ok Bondi, show us the warrants for your “investigations”!

He has already proved that as a president he is immune
Also it wouldn't surprise me if he eventually pardoned himself for all charges

Biden should have never pardoned himselfTrump will 100% do it but won't tell anyone. Like the documents stuff. Jedi Mind trick.Bassman1805@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 296d
Biden did not pardon himself.

Sorry, I thought he did last moment. He did his family.

Yeah because he knew the guy coming him after him would maliciously prosecute them lol.

Take it to court like everyone else. That's what normal people do.

Have you seen whats happening with our court system?

Bondi isn't opening up an investigation against Pelosi for actual crimes, she's investigating because she said ICE agents who break the law should be arrested. Pelosi dared to say something against the gestapo, that's why Bondi is involved.

Yeah I know. Was hoping for really charges not make believe ones.

Fun fact: Congress critters are (were) exempt from all that SEC silliness the plebs are subject to.

That's not how it works under authoritarians. If you're in the circle you're fine doing whatever fucked up shit you can think of. If you're not then you're fucked for jay walking.

How about an investigation into Pam Bondi taking a $25k campaign contribution from Donald Trump in exchange for dropping the Florida state lawsuit against Trump for his massive Trump University scam?

Or how about re-opening the case case against Tom Holman for accepting a $50k cash bribe on video from an undercover FBI agent?

Presidential immunity does not extend to rank and file Federal employees. If they're breaking the law, they can and should be held accountable. There is nothing controversial about that.
BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world · 21 pts · 296d
I agree. Pam Bondi should be arrested and charged with her many counts of corruption and abuse.
CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 296d
This is fascist nonsense. Bondi should spend the rest of her life in prison.

shes wearing her cross like karolina just in case.
DonutsRMeh@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 296d
Not sure too many people are going to oppose this one. lol
floofloof@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 296d
They should. Supporting the judicial persecution through trumped-up charges of politicians you don't like, just because you don't like them, will help the fascists and eventually come back to bite you.

I just cannot wait for that arrogant mean AG to get her comeuppance. Pelosi should also do some time as well for insider trading, if it is proven. I think the stock market does not mean as much anymore due to all of the manipulatable fuckery from everywhere and over time.

Pelosi is 100% corrupt. You don't get that wealthy by being a politician of the people. Remember when covid hit and a bunch of politicians magically sold off a bunch of their stocks right before the market crashed?? Pretty sure she was in that group. Either way she looks like a innocent school child in comparison to trump and his henchmen. If trump wants to start comparing whose more corrupt then he'll eventually lose. Eventually he'll start pulling a thread he wished he hadn't and wind said thread into a noose for himself

Pelosi should be investigated for why she blocked several impeachments of Trump.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 296d
Because she knew the votes weren't there in the Senate to convict, and to keep impeaching and having it go nowhere would start to look pathetic.
Also, 50 years from now, it might look more like it was persecution by Democrats, making Trump sympathetic.
Impeachment is supposed to something extremely rare, used only a few times throughout history, not as a routine punishment.

throw both her and schumer to jail for life. they deserve it for making dnc impotent bootlickers of superpacs while backstabbing aoc and mamdani

Which random accusations did she draw from the hat this time?
beemikeoak@lemmynsfw.com · 0 pts · 295d
She's now 86 years old person. Like doesn't 64 years old mean that nobody is supposed to bother you anymore? WTF she's almost 90 in 4 short years. They are attacking old people now.
