President Donald Trump said Thursday that Pam Bondi is out as his attorney general, ending the contentious tenure of a loyalist who upended the Justice Department’s culture of independence from the White House, oversaw large-scale firings of career employees and moved aggressively to investigate the Republican president’s perceived enemies.
The departure followed months of scrutiny over the Justice Department’s handling of files related to the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking investigation and failed efforts to meet Trump’s unwavering demands for criminal cases against his adversaries. As Trump’s own frustrations mounted, he began privately discussing firing Bondi, people familiar with the matter say.

It’s astonishing how these sycophants are delusional enough to think that they are so special that they will achieve lasting and continued success by licking the boots of the traitorous buffoon who literally betrays every single person who gives him the loyalty he demands.

Oh there's plenty of continued success as a consultant on one of the various fascist-backing TV channels.

Where’s the Dow now, Bondi? WHERE’S THE DOW? IS IT ABOVE 50K?

Right into a cushy job as news pundit or lobbyist or something equally revolting.

Wonder if she's going to end up committing suicide via 2 or 3 rounds to the back of her skull...

Not really necessary.
