Bondi won’t prosecute and if she did Trump would pardon them.

I live in TN and this is outrageous! From: Just a little blue dot trying to make a bigger dot.

would bondi have stepped in during the pre-trial phase to shut down the prosecution? yes.

victorytwin.bsky.social•7 days ago

Who gives Bondi or anyone else for that matter the authority to dismantle any branch of the DOJ due to their sick apolitical opinions…Heritage?

gangstadem.bsky.social•7 days ago

Privilege.

victorytwin.bsky.social•7 days ago

She needs to be stripped and shamed

gangstadem.bsky.social•7 days ago

Yes, MA'AM!! It sounds like a GRAND idea!! I'm from TX, so it's to be expected. UGH!!! 🤬👿☠️👹👺

So disgusting. The world watched the video of it.

fsquared.bsky.social•7 days ago

Err . . . not only would have Bondi not have prosecuted, the administration might well have started to deploy hundreds of millions of dollars worth of pro bono help from the top tier law firms (Skadden, Paul Weiss, etc.) which cravenly caved to the admin. https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/trump-executive-order-seeks-law-firms-defend-police-officers-free-2025-04-29/

Trump will not pardon black cops

ladyclaresussex.bsky.social•7 days ago

I believe he would pardon black cops who beat to death a black man. #TyreNichols #nojusticereceived

misstris.bsky.social•7 days ago

Based on what evidence? In the ideology of white supremacy black on black crime is lauded as a way to kill two birds with one stone. No Kardashian photo op for this one.

ladyclaresussex.bsky.social•7 days ago

Where the angels fear to tread MissTris will follow. I gave an opinion as to whether Trump might give the 3 murderers a pardon which doesn't require empirical evidence. It is an opinion. I don't even entertain the buffoonery of a K-Trash.

Peace be with you. 😊

misstris.bsky.social•6 days ago

That's not a rhetorical question.

misstris.bsky.social•6 days ago

What is your race?

marypat61.bsky.social•7 days ago

They’ll probably be pardoned by the criminal in the WH.

blackstarblues.bsky.social•7 days ago

Donald is going to issue a pardon and cut a check to "thank them for their service". Bet.

ritaisawriter.bsky.social•7 days ago

We all saw it

415goldblooded.bsky.social•7 days ago

Federal crimes?
So they can receive a pardon from the federal govt ?

jos1463.bsky.social•7 days ago

Fuck

415goldblooded.bsky.social•7 days ago

I mean it could either way

Trump may not pardon because they are black after all 💀🙄

But to appease the “blacks for Trump” crowd he may

🤷🏽‍♀️

drewtcorbin.bsky.social•6 days ago

I was thinking the same... no doubt, pardons would be 💯 guaranteed if they were white...

jos1463.bsky.social•7 days ago

All true

wendynorris.bsky.social•7 days ago

This verdict is not only wrong, it is disgusting. I am outraged that Tyree Nichols and his family did not receive justice today.

tracyfortruth.bsky.social•7 days ago

He will pardon them

communitycafe.bsky.social•7 days ago

🤍

dqscribbler.bsky.social•7 days ago

This is Jim Crow BS. We must redefine policing as protecting people, not commerce and property. Lives matter. Black lives matter.

ollie72bskysocial.bsky.social•7 days ago

Makes me sick!!

nosuperhero.bsky.social•7 days ago

Unfortunately Trump will pardon them

misstris.bsky.social•7 days ago

They're not likely to do DEI pardons

anewdaydawning.bsky.social•7 days ago

The acquittal on state charges is heartbreaking 💔, I saw the tapes 😢 and heard the beating of this man. Horrific 😥😢😭

redinkphotography.bsky.social•7 days ago

Even money Bondi’s DOJ does what they did in LA

kevinmulhall.bsky.social•7 days ago

You want that kind of DoJ you need to elect a different President. America decided in Nov they wanted a criminal WH.

piapax.bsky.social•6 days ago

With a lot of help from Musk! His ballot machines were in our Battle States. He damaged star link next day ! He, Trump & others have said aloud they Hacked our election. Yes, we still have too many racist ppl in USA. He wouldn’t have won w/ out Musk! Putins hand in our elections , too.

kevinmulhall.bsky.social•6 days ago

If enough of people that didn't vote for Trump had supported Harris (including the people who didn't vote at all) it would have overwhelmed the marginal vote skullduggery. Far too many people that nit-pic'd the Biden administration didn't fear Trump as much as they should have.

piapax.bsky.social•6 days ago

I concur.

Duh
