Today, President Trump fired Pam Bondi from her position as U.S. attorney general.
Public Citizen Co-President Lisa Gilbert, who testified against Bondi’s confirmation hearing, issued the following statement.
“No one can be loyal enough. No one can punish Trump’s enemies fast enough. Pam Bondi took the DOJ in a lawless, non-independent, shameful direction, and the institution of justice has suffered as a result. Bondi has trivialized the DOJ, the sanctity of law and the attorney general position.”
