Former US Attorney who was a part of Trump's transition team is saying that when they came in they had a plan for streamlining the DoJ similar to what they did with the State Department. But unlike with the State Department, the orders for DoJ cleansing weren't followed. And that this makes it impossible for an AG to implement Trump's policies. The DoJ has over 100,000 employees and over 90% of them donate to Democrats.

I feel like that's the problem with the FBI. It's like Kash knows they can't burn it to the ground and purge everybody, so he says nice things about the rank and file to keep a mutiny at bay.

Probably so. And ultimately this will be what Bondi was fired for. It would have been her job to implement any plans for purging the DoJ and she failed to do so. Doesn't matter how good a job she did elsewhere, if she's not willing or able to implement the POTUSes policies, they need to find someone who will.

I like the idea of Christopher Miller in the role.

Flashback to when the mere existence of a deep-state was a controversial issue.

Right. SFP used to argue until he was blue in the face that the idea of a "deep state" was ludicrous.

For as terrible as Russiagate and the Ukraine impeachment were, they really gave us a great demonstration of how deep state rats operate.

These is thread on the fraud in calilfornia and cajunangelle attached an article from the doj office there. He said in the fraud division half the lawyers quit when Trump was elected or the DOGE payouts.

That means the other half knew they could not find a job if they took DOGE so they just stayed.

Place is so full of rats its disgusting.

Remember the whole Maryland Man mess. Our own DOJ attorney told the judge we filed him as Tren de Agua when he was MS13 so we made the "infamous administrative error" which suddenly ballooned into falsely arrested. Arsehat knew exactly what he was doing.

They never thought they'd lose.

Trump was supposed to be under the jail six-ways from Sunday.

Having demonstrated their loyalty the 90% are just marching time with Trump.

DOJ and federal judiciary working hand in hand making sure anything that Trump does is walking through molasses.

They pine for the days when the idea of a "deep state" was ludicrous and Antifa 'was just an idea'.

Hell theres probably a shadow DOJ that coordinate efforts to stonewall until they can re-take the wheel.

Well, all I've got to say is that it is frickin imperative that Trump finishes the job. This kind of shite cannot be allowed. And if they regain power they will turn this bullshite system against innocent Americans as punishment.

I believe this is why Bongino bolted. He was using some cryptic words today about Bondi.

Kash wrote a book about reforming the FBI. He didn’t even suggest disbanding it. And then didn’t do anything in it.

The DOJ has ousted and lost a ton of workers and it's barely functioning as is. I don't see how claiming we need to cut it more to the bone will do anything to advance the admin's agenda.

There is your patented "make up arguments" strategy.

At least you didn't claim that sources were lying this time.
