Pam Bondi already fired as attorney general, Cabinet official teed up as replacement: sources

[verga]

I was against her from the moment she was nominated.

[rmc51]

I never thought Blondi was a good choice, and I said so from the first day.  I don't agree with everything Trump does, but he's the best we have right now....

I don't remember her doing anything great down here in Florida as AG!

EXCLUSIVE: According to multiple current Trump administration officials with access to Pam Bondi, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, who was just named Acting Attorney General, has been the main roadblock holding up prosecutions of former Biden officials, state-level politicians, and Antifa terrorists. Todd Blanche personally shut down the DOJ’s “weaponization” task force and is responsible for sidelining Ed Martin.

Todd Blanche sees himself as a “principled” conservative and views investigations of Trump enemies like Jack Smith as an “abuse of power.” He has privately told staff that he will not “stoop to that level.”

Under Todd Blanche, the failure of the DOJ to investigate left-wing terrorists and former officials who prosecuted President Trump will only get worse.

I was going to say Blanche is a step up, but maybe not.

But that would take Cruz out of the Senate, can we afford to lose him there? @mystery-ak

No Autopsy, cremated remains (as a Catholic?)
Yeah, flags all over the field.

Catholics can be cremated, but not scattered or disposed of at sea.

I said it right from the gitgo. She has close toes with the Church Cult of Scientology and is covered with their stink.

Rumor has it Bondi was fired because she tipped off Rep. Eric Swalwell about FBI documents exposing the Democrat's shady past ties to his honey pot, Christine Fang,.

Too Weird to Check: Trump Canned Bondi Over ... Swalwell?
 Ed Morrissey 6:30 PM | April 02, 2026

Did the now-fired Attorney General tip off one of her boss' fiercest critics over an FBI plan to release investigatory files? That's what the Daily Mail claimed earlier this afternoon, shortly after Donald Trump announced Pam Bondi's departure from the Department of Justice. Their trio of reporters claims that the matter came to a head late yesterday, with Trump cashiering Bondi just prior to his war speech on national television.

Color me a bit skeptical on this, but here's the story:

    Trump's reasoning for the sudden dismissal comes in part because the President believes Bondi tipped off Eric Swalwell about the FBI's efforts to release investigative documents related to his relationship with an alleged Chinese spy.

    The FBI was preparing a cache of documents on Swalwell's relationship with Christine Fang.

    'She's intervening in those matters. The White House wasn't pleased she was intervening due to her personal friendship with Swalwell,' the source added.

    It is unclear why Bondi would have intervened, but it is believed that Bondi and Swalwell have a friendly relationship.

How friendly is their relationship? Even the Daily Mail notes that Swalwell has not just attacked Trump publicly, but Bondi as well. Swalwell ripped Bondi for a lack of prosecutions in death threats made against himself and his family. Collin Rugg posted one short clip of their exchange in congressional testimony:

I’m sorry, I still felt I was in FR mode.

And I agree, what choice do we have?  Yet I have to sound like a raving MAGA (I even hate saying it that way) to all the raving communists on the net and in real life here in my hometown, defending him.

Since it became a thread, this is one of the reasons cremation is a horrible idea.

So many crimes get covered up…that includes no exhumation for 2nd autopsy exam possible.  And that could also be for medical reasons.

It’s also a great way for people to fight over who keeps it, etc.  and there is zero guarantee who’s in there is…who’s in there…or even if it’s a person.  Rife for fraud.

A friend of mine's son was married to a girl who tried to keep their 3rd son ill in the hospital by different means, she had Munchausen syndrome as it turns out.  They since got divorced and he kept the kids.  She then got remarried and her husband died in their house under suspicious circumstances, likely poisoned.  Since they lived in the country with very little police oversight, she had the husband cremated the very next day after he was found dead.  Like you say....crimes get covered up and this is a prime example.

Habba would never get confirmed.

Habba would never get confirmed.

I hope Trump isn't seriously considering her. She was born to Iraqi parents and in 2022 Trump paid her law firm almost $2 million in legal fees. Long story short Trump/Habba lost in court.

I'm hoping for Zelden.  The betting markets have his odds way up, nobody else is close.

Blanche would be the worst possible choice!  He's the acting AG right now.

She looks and sounds scary, and not in the good way.
