It should only be one. If there's one fraudulent, unsupported indictment that's brought for personal reasons, political reasons in which the facts are distorted and the law is abused, that alone should be impeachable. The multitude of cases we've had now certainly provides a wealth of evidence that could be used to impeach Pam Bondi. I think, you know, it's probably difficult to extend, you know, her performance and the illegal and unconstitutional, unethical way that she's managed the Justice Department all the way to the president.

The Department of Justice needed yes votes from 12 grand jurors on a panel of 16-23 members in order to indict six Democratic members of Congress in connection with a video in which the lawmakers urged troops to refuse illegal orders. They reportedly got none. According to a report from Ryan J. Reilly of NBC News, not one of the empaneled grand jury members bought the DOJ's arguments in the case against Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ),

Catch me up: Halligan departed nearly two months after U.S. District Judge Cameron Currie ruled her appointment unconstitutional and after judges publicly questioned her authority in blistering orders. The ruling torpedoed indictments against ex-FBI director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. While the government appealed the ruling, it never sought a stay. Yet Halligan kept using the title, and judges repeatedly struck "United States Attorney" from her filings and questioned her authority.

On Saturday, the same day that federal agents shot and killed Alex Pretti on a Minneapolis street, the Justice Department sent a letter to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. The letter did not have anything to say about the violence caused by the Department of Homeland Security's presence in the state. Nor did it offer Minnesota any assistance in the investigation of Pretti's death or that of Renee Good's just more than two weeks earlier.

And on Tuesday, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement that "there is currently no basis for a criminal civil rights investigation." The statement, first reported by CNN, did not elaborate on how the department had reached a conclusion that no investigation was warranted. Federal officials have said that the officer acted in self-defense and that the driver of the Honda was engaging in "an act of domestic terrorism" when she pulled forward toward him.

WASHINGTON -- Roughly half a dozen federal prosecutors in Minnesota have resigned and several supervisors in the criminal section of the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division have given notice of their departures amid turmoil over the federal investigation into the killing of a woman by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minneapolis, according to people familiar with the matter.

The pardons issued last January sent a clear message to the American people: political allegiance now matters more than criminal conduct. But over the past year, we've also seen a sustained effort to rewrite the facts of January 6, as if the historical record could be negotiated away or erased, said Gregory Rosen, who led the justice department unit that prosecuted January 6 cases. But Americans remember that day for a simple reason we watched it happen.

You saw everyday Americans who fought for the education of their children being put on watch lists, I think you saw what happened with Charlie Kirk, when you saw the raiding of President Trump's home. Debates should have happened ... I think that you're seeing the clear indication that the Justice Department under the previous administration used lawfare to go after those who disagree with them," he added.
