Trump has complained about Pam Bondi repeatedly to aides

Source: msn/WSJ

2h


President Trump has complained to aides repeatedly in recent weeks about Attorney General Pam Bondi, describing her as weak and an ineffective enforcer of his agenda, administration officials and other people familiar with his complaints said. The criticisms appear to be part of an intense campaign by Trump to pressure the Justice Department to more aggressively pursue his priorities, some of the officials said.

Trump has previously criticized Bondi at times but his vocal concerns about his attorney general have grown more frequent in recent months, officials said. This month, Trump has talked with allies about how he could appoint special counsels at the Justice Department because he is so frustrated with what he sees as the slow progress of its work, people familiar with the matter said.

Chief among his grievances is what he sees as Bondi’s failure to quickly and effectively prosecute the investigators who had pursued him for years, including former FBI Director James Comey and New York Democratic Attorney General Letitia James, the officials and others familiar with his complaints said. Both criminal cases were dismissed in November by a judge who said the Trump aide who secured the indictment had been improperly appointed to her post. Trump has wanted to see the cases continue quickly.

A Justice Department investigation into another of Trump’s antagonists, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, became public on Sunday night. Powell, whom Trump has publicly berated and pressured to lower interest rates, disclosed that the Justice Department was pursuing a criminal investigation over his testimony last summer about the central bank’s building-renovation project.

and Bondi has not moved fast enough to suit this egomaniacal president. His second term should rightfully be called TRUMP- THE REVENGE TOUR".

her indictments getting laughed out of courts for lack of evidence.

He already has Eileen Cannon in Florida to sit on every indictment against Trump. What good is Bondi? He can't even send her back to be DeSatan's problem.

Poor Pammy. She sold her soul to the devil and now he's rejecting her.

... if I were an admirer of Crooked Donald, I would say she is doing a fantastic job. Maybe she doesn't prosecute his enemies fast enough? And, of course, she hasn't shot any person or animal in the head - that we know about.

You can't suck up enough, comply enough, praise enough, work hard enough, lie enough, or even risk ruining their own reputations and careers by carrying out questionably legal deeds enough. Nothing will ever be enough - are you all getting that yet?? His loyalty is one sided and he will only back you up if it serves him. And when he has grown tired or bored with you - you are done. Not even a blip on his fading memory screen.

YOU ALL DESERVE HOWEVER HE CHOOSES TO SCREW YOU OVER!
