Breaking from me and @mjsdc.bsky.social : Newly installed AG Pam Bondi sent out more than a dozen memos in a 15 minute period on Wednesday. One of them told staffers to come up with "proposals for criminal investigations" of large companies that have DEIA initiatives. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Trump's legal team was clownish, yet they effectively secured delays, allowing him to win reelection and avoid legal consequences.

While they had inside help (Cannon, SCOTUS, etc.), so will Bondi. Who needs competence when you have friends?

jxkstraw.bsky.social•16 days ago

Just hope Aileen Cannon isn't the judge.

She works for Cheeto, she’s probably fluent in bird law.

Serious question, does it really matter if she is a terrible lawyer?

bigdaddylipscomb2.bsky.social•16 days ago

This is something I predicted. Whether they succeed or fail, the message is clear. They want black Americans out of the schools, out of the workforce, and out of public life.

Someone in the DOJ should propose suing the DOJ for placing an incompetent woman in charge.

O/U on Serena Joy making it 2 yrs in Season 2?

fresistl.bsky.social•16 days ago

Wonder who is orchestrating all of this. It certainly is not the tiddly winks player in the oval

carlfischeriv.bsky.social•16 days ago

Fantastic opportunity to sabotage from within. Unfortunately, all this nonsense will prevent the department from doing anything useful. But at least maybe they won’t do as much harm.

datamule.bsky.social•16 days ago

She's terrible in other ways...

She was awful in those hearings

hellyeah2030.bsky.social•16 days ago

This may be our saving grace which is just how dumb most of these people are.

patti13.bsky.social•16 days ago

She is not the most qualified. According to MAGAts, wouldn't that make her a DEI hire?

ijamessaxon.bsky.social•16 days ago

May their idiocy be their demise!!!

Serious question - what criminal statute exists that explicitly prohibits a private company from working to ensure that their workforce reflects a diverse group of employees? And what risk does DoJ take on for improper prosecution and countersuits for harassment?

markwhittier.bsky.social•16 days ago

Pam Bondi is completely unserious as the U.S. AG top cop. She's simply a tool of Trump's campaign of retribution.

starlightwishes.bsky.social•16 days ago

It's going to be hard for professionals who love the law to do that. But it's how prisoners fought against the Nazis in the work camps.

leiao.bsky.social•16 days ago

That's something to work to our advantage. Loyalists to a moron are not going to be the sharpest tools in the shed. Be thinking how to outwit them at every turn. Send them down lots of rabbit holes, distract with shiny objects, throw sand in the gears.

eawinick.bsky.social•16 days ago

Other than Fetterman, i can’t imagine anyone took a single word she said in her hearing seriously.

raybadberry.bsky.social•16 days ago

Time to lock up anyone with an open mind.

districtofalex.bsky.social•16 days ago

I've been assured that "she is serious"

kfanyo.bsky.social•16 days ago

So she is by nature an agent with a limited capacity for independent thinking.

lizmarabeas.bsky.social•16 days ago

Does that mean Clarence Thomas is out?

jodilh.bsky.social•16 days ago

This is a heist against America.
It was full steam ahead in 2016, and their failed coup plot continued to set it motion and see it through at all costs.
fElon is Putins mini me while #47 is pResident as cover/ reward.

scottmcara.bsky.social•16 days ago

It's the old "stupid people are too stupid to know how stupid they are" Aikido strategy.

Brilliant! I love it! Coz it's true.

meepmeep815.bsky.social•16 days ago

Is this even legal, what they're doing?

dopre-me.bsky.social•16 days ago

So the "I" in "DEI" stands for "Inclusion". They are against it, therefore they are for segregation.
Why doesn't the opposition stop defending DEI and start attacking pro-segregationists?!

imchuckmiller.bsky.social•16 days ago

Interesting point

nerdotim.bsky.social•16 days ago

Hopefully as bad as his lawyer Alina Habba in his NY case! 🙏

archvillain.bsky.social•16 days ago

In the world of the rational and just these proposals get laughed out of court. Unfortunately, in this time Justices Roberts, Thomas and Alito will give wings to any proposal if it is sufficiently racist.

adventurer27.bsky.social•16 days ago

Can it get any more childish?

kathrynegayle.bsky.social•16 days ago

I'm guessing that, the reason why she was hired; has nothing to do with her skills, as a lawyer ( she looks like Ivanka).

ipnf.bsky.social•16 days ago

Top of the morning to you, stellar idea.

ffejten23.bsky.social•15 days ago

Pam is like a real life version of that Hatchet Lawyer from Landman, except the fictional lawyer is REALLY smart

nyc118.bsky.social•16 days ago

Some day (I’ll likely be gone) there will be a terrific play or movie about the subtle sabotage of the idiots in this administration by the “elites” they hate much.

angrycreamsicle.bsky.social•16 days ago

Pam Bondi investigating DEI companies for criminal activity is like a toddler investigating vegetables for crimes against chicken nuggets. Zero logic, all tantrum.

dr299.bsky.social•16 days ago

She never would've been the AG in a normal administration.

dethpuck.bsky.social•16 days ago

Good luck going after Costco.

moodlesmix.bsky.social•16 days ago

Is it even legal to start up investigations of businesses or people without any cause?

handofthekingz.bsky.social•16 days ago

Pam Bondi sends DOJ on search to investigate and jail Jesus, Mister Rodgers, Ghandi, Dr. Suess, and Big Bird. Bondi claims they can't hide from justice. Anyone found harboring these fugitives will be investigated.

bluezer24.bsky.social•16 days ago

DEI is now illegal? Will every black, woman, minority now take full responsibility for their vote?

mungonna8.bsky.social•16 days ago

The 3 of them posing in front of a portrait of George Washington. Between the 3 of them, they couldn't come up with the balls George had to take on the British Army. They disgrace George Washington.

level90.bsky.social•16 days ago

Well, it didn't take long for her to show her true colours. And, seriously, how is anyone going to make a case that DEI initiatives are illegal?

dandeliun248.bsky.social•16 days ago

she will be seen as the false vampire she is. the hardship had to occur because the America's dont believe that there are "roses that smell like boo-boo." sleeping giant, its time to awake. America is lazy, spoiled of rotten $$ eggs, selfish and Godless. yet her $ says "in God we Trust", hypocrites.

covios.bsky.social•16 days ago

Whole lotta bad stuff not gonna be prosecuted while she’s doing this dumb shit.

When the gavel drops the bullshit stops

ac-californian.bsky.social•16 days ago

So you’re saying…Bondi’s DOJ is likely to rack up a massive losing streak with the lawsuits she filed in court?

joe-kelly86.bsky.social•16 days ago

So they’re going to investigate every Fortune 500 company and then thousands of others? Yeah right.

christinens.bsky.social•16 days ago

that’s a way to frustrate fascism, by stealthily gumming up the works.

judyhasthoughts.bsky.social•16 days ago

She was a complete fool in the impeachment hearing with her notebook, licking her fingers, long pauses in the middle of sentences because the next word was on another page. Her value is she is corrupt to the core and will do whatever trump wants, regardless of the lies she told in her hearing.

dachsy.bsky.social•16 days ago

She instructs the felon?

They are pulling his strings.

Was she honest while being questioned?

Bondi also refused to deny falsehoods about the 2020 presidential election being stolen.

"No one will be prosecuted, investigated because they are a political opponent," Bondi said.

No!

msdermo1463.bsky.social•16 days ago

She only has to read the teleprompter, and be white and blond. She’s got this.

bhashakids.bsky.social•16 days ago

But she’s blond!

skeetertjones.bsky.social•16 days ago

She's always been more politician than lawyer.

axelfish.bsky.social•16 days ago

As a longtime FL lawyer, she has never impressed me as being particularly gifted in jurisprudence. She will however accept payment to do ‘what’s right’.

gogglespaisano08.bsky.social•16 days ago

Bish just gave up her Costco membership.😆

murdochargh.bsky.social•16 days ago

Am I stupid here, or aren’t those (I.e., Costco) private policies of private companies? Inclusion itself is not a crime. Companies are allowed to choose who they employ

groovus1.bsky.social•16 days ago

realguyfawkes.bsky.social•16 days ago

They are all being told what to do by the Nazi goons running 2025.

rumpole-brief.bsky.social•16 days ago

From experience with a dangerously incompetent senior attorney, I have to admit you must be a very talented lawyer indeed to argue a very stupid, largely frivolous position forcefully and with a straight face. I was horrible at it and felt bad ...until I grew up.
