Pam Bondi has sacked three career federal prosecutors over their handling of prosecutions of J6 self-guided tourists thanks to the recent SCOTUS ruling that restricted Federal judges from imposing nationwise injunctions. This meant Trump couldn't be stopped from firing these people by a long judge operating beyond his authority or jurisdiction.
Naturally the radicals who embedded themselves at DOj are horrified.
FTA:
One federal law enforcement official described the move as "horrifying” and said it could have a chilling effect on prosecutors who may be asked to conduct politically sensitive investigations in the future.
"To fire them, without explanation, is a slap in the face not only to them, but to all career DOJ prosecutors,” one DOJ official said.
"No one is safe from this administration’s whims and impulses. And the public certainly is not served by the continued brain drain of DOJ — we are losing the best among us every day.”
These firings are hardly whims or impulses and only occurred after a review of their files. And they knew damned good and well why they were fired, or they wouldn't be "the best and brightest" as this unnamed DOJ stooge says.
This is what we mean by the Deep State; long serving radicals embedded in their citadels of power deep inside government agencies, protected by laws that were passed ostensibly to end corruption by making the bureaucracy outside of the patronage system but really as a tool to promote the Democrats, who not only buy votes this way but use such types to works their will and subvert any Republican administration.
Hopefully these three are just the first; we need every scumbag who abused their authority (and decent Americans) out of power permanently.
As to the SCOTUS ruling, it's a double edged sword and will undoubtedly come back to bite us at some point. We've benefitted from district judges staying Democrat policies in times gone by. Now that tool is as lost to us as it is to Democrats. Of course WE didn't abuse it because we believe in the rule of law. They only believe in the exercise of power.
But it is welcome as these courts were operating outside of the parameters of what they were intended to do and of their authority under the Constitution. And remember, judges have lifetime tenure and can't be removed easily. They can be impeached for criminal behavior, or Congress can simply dissolve their districts and reconfigure, but they cannot be kicked out for being partisan or just plain a-holes.
Well, many of them need to be kicked out and if the GOP would win big in Congress maybe thatt could happen. Maybe, but probably not; there are still too many RINO's in office and John Thune is essentially Mitch "the bitch" McConnoll.
But the DOJ is under the Executive branch and Trump shold be able to fire them at his pleasure. Why wouldn't he fire them, if they actively worked against him?
I remember when George W. Bush fired a bunch of U.S. attorneys there was a big stink about it and the media, happily amnesiatic, forgot that Bill Clinton fired ALL U.S. attorneys when he came into office. This isn't any different. These people serve at the pleasure of the President. Donald Trump is President and has the authority. But the courts have continually overstepped their authority to stop him.
Now they can't.
