‘Ruthless,’ ‘Quid Pro Quo’: Former DOJ Officials Accuse Pam Bondi of Weaponizing Law Against Trump Foes

Olivia Rondeau 17 Feb 2025

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi is causing “concerns” within the establishment justice system and legacy media, with former officials claiming that she is using “quid pro quo” and “ruthlessness” to do the bidding of President Donald Trump.

Bondi, who was confirmed by the Senate with bipartisan support on February 4, has repeatedly said the Department of Justice (DOJ) would not “play politics,” the Associated Press reported from her hearings in January.

“Of course not,” the former Florida attorney general replied to Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) when asked if she would “start with a name to prosecute and then look for a crime.”

“I hope no attorney general going forward would ever do that,” Bondi added.

While she stated that the justice system under former President Joe Biden “targeted Donald Trump,” she insisted that “If I am attorney general, I will not politicize that office.”

In a Sunday piece from the Associated Press, the publication claimed that “a succession of actions has raised concerns the department is doing exactly that.”

The DOJ ordered Manhattan prosecutors to drop the bribery and wire fraud case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) last week, saying that the “timing of the charges,” initially filed in September 2024, “have threatened the integrity of the proceedings, including by increasing prejudicial pretrial publicity that risks impacting potential witnesses and the jury pool.”

“It cannot be ignored that Mayor Adams criticized the prior Administration’s Immigration policies before the charges were filed, and the former U.S. Attorneys public actions created appearances of impropriety that implicate the concerns raised in the Attorney General’s February 5, 2025 memorandum regarding Restoring The Integrity and Credibility of the Department of Justice, as well as in Executive Order 14147, entitled Ending The Weaponization of the Federal Government,” Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove said in a February 10 memo to the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Southern District of New York.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

How does it feel, a$$hole$?

Only the current administration won't have to make stuff up or change laws or definitions to indict and convict those who were on the other end of this stuff last time.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
