Bondi vows to prosecute judges trying to obstruct efforts to "make this country safer"

[HereForTheParty]

When Fox host John Roberts asked about the perception created by arresting judges — “They’ll say this is a government that is expanding the powers of the Article One of the Constitution, now they’re arresting judges,” he said — Bondi didn’t dispute that.

“No one is above the law, John,” she said. “No one is above the law in this country.”

At another point, fellow host Sandra Smith asked, “So when you see these judges trying to obstruct your efforts to make this country safer, what is your message to them?”

Bondi responded: “We are going to prosecute you, and we are prosecuting you.”

Except for felons who become president without going to jail

3. Authoritarian states preach "order," and "safety" while they create upheaval, chaos, paranoia,

and turn the clock back on rights and norms. Their end game--use of power to weaken or destroy institutions that resist the aims of extremists.

6. Anna Bower an editor at Lawfare had this to say:

The Attorney General is so unserious.

If you’re a prosecutor who is serious about obtaining a conviction, you don’t go on Fox and talk about the (alleged) facts of the case like this.

Has Bondi read the Justice Manual? Has Bondi heard of pretrial publicity motions? How about bar ethics rules?
