Photo: Pam Bondi portrait taken down at DOJ and tossed into trash bin..........



@MeidasTouch
Pam Bondi’s portrait was taken down at DOJ and tossed in a trash bin soon after her firing. MS NOW obtained the photo. The move reflects how deeply unpopular she was among career officials. @KDilanianMSNOW

Now it's her turn

Excerpt from People Magazine story:

Shortly after Trump’s second inauguration in January 2025, Bondi had boasted that she removed portraits of individuals from the previous administration at the Justice Department herself. She allegedly demoted the acting chief of the national security division, Devin DeBacker, after she saw that a portrait of President Joe Biden was still hanging, Bloomberg Law reported.

“I went up on the seventh floor, which is the national security division. The entire floor is a SCIF, so no one can get in there,” Bondi said during an interview that February on Fox News’ My View with Lara Trump. “So, I was able to get the code, open the door, and I look on the wall and see President Biden, [former Vice President] Kamala Harris, and [former Attorney General] Merrick Garland’s paintings still hanging.”

“I personally took all three photos down,” Bondi told host Lara Trump, who is married to the president’s son, Eric Trump. “I put them in front of someone who said to me, ‘Oh well, maintenance is really slow here.’ I said, ‘Well, it took me about 30 seconds to get them off the wall.’ ”
