Pam Bondi--"All Beatings Will Continue Until Morale Improves"

 

We saw Pam Bondi the mean girl coming a mile off -- that polished gleam of pure contempt for everyone not blond enough. Or not trumpy enough.

Within hours of being sworn in as US Attorney General, Bondi sent a memo to all employees at the Department of Justice that the goal formerly known as impartial justice is now replaced by "whatever Trump wants," and any lawyer previously sworn to uphold the Constitution is now expected to uphold Donald Jethro Trump. Anyone who resists the whims of Trump will be harshly dealt with:

“Any attorney who because of their personal political views or judgments declines to sign a brief or appear in court, refuses to advance good-faith arguments on behalf of the administration, or otherwise delays or impedes the Department’s mission will be subject to discipline and potentially termination, consistent with applicable law,” Bondi wrote in a memo.

It's every bit as bad as we all predicted: Trump has guaranteed himself a secret police force to serve his ambitions and a complacent and compliant justice department to wink approvingly. He is hollowing out our government and replacing it with a cow he can milk. Jethro often vowed on the campaign trail that he would use the Justice Department to exact retribution on his political enemies. It's happening. We have our petty tyrant, served slavishly by his ass-kissers.
