So sad.

She tried so hard to be Trump's puppet, but failed to adequately carry out his desire for revenge on perceived enemies.

Now it seems to be Todd Blanche's turn, and given his track record, he will surely try to deliver for Trump. Or maybe another Trump stooge like Lee Zeldin.

President Trump had complained too freely, too frequently, to too many people about her inability to prosecute the people he hates. She was falling short of Mr. Trump’s unyielding, unrealistic demands for retribution against his enemies. She had made mistake upon mistake in her handling of the Epstein files. Her critics were in the president’s ear.

Ms. Bondi hoped to save her job or, at the very least, buy a little more time — until the summer — to give herself a graceful exit.

She ended up with neither, and grew emotional Wednesday in conversations with friends and colleagues after she realized she was out. The next morning, Mr. Trump made it official, and fired her via social media post.

Ms. Bondi’s precipitous fall laid bare a cornerstone truth of Mr. Trump’s second term: Loyalty, flattery and obeisance are prerequisites for power, but they don’t provide durable protection from a president intent on carrying out his maximalist personal and political goals.

I had suggested here long ago - if the Tribals got together --- and reached out to Pam or someone else and said "Spill what you got, all of it....and in return here's 50 million bucks + any cushy job you select"

Game set match over.

But, Tribals prefer 2 terms ---tribals got what they deserved :)
