Are on the "short list" for replacing Eva Braun-Bundy-Bondi.
I am surprised that a sucking, blackhole vortex of stupid hasn't swallowed us all whole by now.
We should all get schools named after us if we survive this shitshow.

If Bondi was fired because even she was not corrupt enough, Pirro and Habba would foot the bill.

Replace a mean girl with another mean girl. And if it is Pirro - a drunk mean girl. It would be funny if it were an SNL skit.

Ocelot II
(130,569 posts)But we can always count on Piggy replacing a fired minion with someone even worse. The upside if there is one, is that both of them are so galactically incompetent that they'll be even less successful than AG Barbie in persecuting Trump's adversaries.

(54,448 posts)Lee Zeldin, currently the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, is understood to be the leading candidate for Attorney General after President Donald Trump fired Pam Bondi.
https://time.com/article/2026/04/02/lee-zeldin-attorney-general-pam-bondi-trump-fire/

Trump dismissed Bondi on Thursday after she faced significant backlash over her departments handling of the Epstein files, documents related to the investigation into convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. Bondi is scheduled to face a deposition before the congressional House Oversight Committee later this month related to the Epstein investigation and transparency of the files.
Pam Bondi is a Great American Patriot and a loyal friend, who faithfully served as my Attorney General over the past year, Trump said in a Truth Social post, praising her record on reducing murders and other crimes. We love Pam, and she will be transitioning to a much needed and important new job in the private sector, to be announced at a date in the near future.
Trump has also reportedly expressed private dissatisfaction that Bondi did not pursue investigations into his critics aggressively enough. At Trumps behest, the DOJ under Bondi has pursued criminal investigations into several of Trumps perceived political adversaries, most of whom are Democrats. These include probes into New York Attorney General Letitia James, California Sen. Adam Schiff, Fed Governor Lisa Cook, and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. The DOJ has so far failed to secure indictments in any of the cases, although some are ongoing.
Bondi was confirmed as Attorney General with a 54-46 vote last February, after Trumps initial pick, former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R, Fla.), withdrew from consideration amid scrutiny of allegations of sexual misconduct. Bondi told lawmakers at her confirmation hearing that she would not target people based on their politics, citing criminal cases against Trump. Last month, Trump replaced Kristi Noem with Markwayne Mullin as Homeland Secretary, making Noem the first Cabinet member to be removed during Trumps second term.

(8,181 posts)She was desperately unqualified to be in any DOJ post at all. It's not whether you'd get to 50. I honestly don't think you'd get to 40.
It's gonna be Lee Zeldin.

For the rest of this damnable presidents equally damnable term.
