Pam Bondi's tenure as Attorney General has led to the resignation or firing of thousands of federal prosecutors. Troy Edwards, a former assistant U.S. attorney, resigned from a senior national-security position after the Justice Department indicted his father-in-law, James Comey, on questionable charges. Edwards had previously secured convictions against Oath Keepers related to January 6th. He expressed concerns about the politicization of the Justice Department and advised other prosecutors against following his path of resignation.
