If you listened to Ed Martin naming the people within the lawfare community of DC operatives who are actively working to weaponize the legal system to block and attack reform efforts within the DOJ, then you likely understand the origin of these latest maneuvers.
Outgoing USAO Ed Martin, and current head of the DOJ ‘weaponization working group’ has revealed that Lawfare operators have filed ethics complaints in an effort to challenge his legal license. This is what happens when the U.S. Attorney General, Pam Bondi, doesn’t face down the internal lawfare operation within Main Justice severely enough.
(VIA REUTERS) – The lawyer President Donald Trump tapped to serve as Washington, D.C.’s top prosecutor and then dropped in the face of Senate opposition, said on Wednesday he is facing a professional ethics investigation, according to a letter seen by Reuters.
Interim Washington U.S. Attorney Ed Martin said in the letter sent to his staff on his last day on the job that he is under investigation by the D.C. Office of Disciplinary Counsel. The office is in charge of investigating and bringing misconduct proceedings against attorneys in the district.
Martin alleged that Hamilton “Phil” Fox, the attorney investigating his conduct, had breached the confidentiality of the investigation by sharing a copy of the complaint with the department’s Civil Division.
“It is an outrage how they treat us and I will continue the fight against the weaponization of our law licenses against us,” Martin wrote in an email.
“I am taking on Mr. Fox head on. His conduct is personally insulting and professionally unacceptable.”
Fox declined to comment on Martin’s claims, citing confidentiality rules.
In the email, Martin attached a copy of a May 9 letter he sent to Chief Judge Anna Blackburne-Rigsby of the District of Columbia Court of Appeals asking her to investigate and suspend Fox, and to dismiss the complaint filed against him. Martin’s letter did not specify the nature of the ethics allegations filed against him.
There have been at least five formal ethics complaints filed against Martin that were made public by nonprofit watchdog groups, ethics experts and members of Congress during his brief tenure as interim U.S. attorney.
At least one of those complaints has since been closed, after Fox concluded that Martin did not technically violate disciplinary rules when he filed a motion to dismiss a case against a person charged with taking part in the January 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol whom he had previously represented in private practice.

I would think most everyone here in CTH might understand the width and depth of the situation.
MAGA is a populous movement, millions of us here and abroad, all around the globe, all with the same perception that our country and their countries are all in grave danger of absolute loss of sovereignty and right not to live under tyranny.
It took many decades to reach this point. The Global cabal did not start their outright attack on human freedom when the Kenyan took office: it started long before he squirmed into office.
I would place it’s beginings somewhere around the onset early days of the development of the industrial age, somewhere before the time when the federal reserve bank was installed and income tax -the new slavery – was implemented.
I wonder at the crowd who believes that the globalist new world order which has been in the works for over 100 years will be turned on its head in a short matter of time, let alone peacefully.
In order for the above to be done without a mass violent global revolution, people will have to fight back with activism, and relentless grit; what I think of as swamping the swamp at every turn of the way, peacefully yet forcefully. And it aint going to happen in the proverbial overnight unless God Himself makes it so.
With this in mind, I suggest we dig in our heels yo find a nitch where we can effect change and trust that providence be with us, praying each and every day as if our lives depend on it, because our mortal lives do depend on success in bringing down the evil overlords. It seems this fight we are in might go forth for years after many of us are in the grave. I’m up for it, how about you?
This is the way it appears to me. Whining and moaning and groaning is not going to change anything for the better.
“Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never prevails. The wicked hem in the righteous, so that justice is perverted.”
The New Testament, Habacuc 1 : 4
Old Testament, but yes, very appropriate.
Surprise! Surprise! Well, no it isn’t. It’s an expected action done any time someone steps up to bat that is going to stand against Lawfare. Congress won’t act any more than our other government supposed good guys. President Trump has had to stand alone most of the time and all others too. The only time there is a band together is when a globalist is attacked and that ain’t often.
Bondi has always been a legal showgirl, not a hammer tough attorney. NOT AG material. Look at Trump’s AG picks.
Sessions: Toothless, cowardly, incompetent, or worse (compromised).
Barr: Two-tongued traitor from the start. Joined the Trump administration SPECIFICALLY to oppose Trump (virtually so, in his own words).
Bondi: Florida AG famous for the railroading attempt and wholesale violation of Zimmerman’s Constitutional rights.
Whoever is left in the Trump Administration that still gives a damn about the “lawfare” assault upon the Constitution, needs keep those who made these past recommendations far away from Trump. I love Trump and support him, obviously. I also understand full well that every Trump nomination goes before an entirely hostile Senate, including the GOP turncoats. Trump doesn’t really get the guys he wants (re: Gaetz) and is lucky to have those appointees who he preferred get through the Senate.
However, Bondi was NEVER a good pick, based upon her history. She was always going to be 90% fluff. Ultimately, she will only make the moves that make her look good in the media, as demonstrated by her constant parading on camera, an average well over once a day. She’s concerned with her self-image, how she looks to the public. Defeating unconstitutional “lawfare” and saving the Republic is so far down her priority list, she’ll likely get to working on it in about 104 years.
What is the date that you suggest PDJT jettisons Pam Bondi?
Like you, I am unimpressed so far.
Yet, we have to balance between ‘investigations take time’ with ‘running out the clock’.
Again, the issue is the Senate. They stopped Gaetz, and if Trump dump’s Bondi, the Senate (our faithless GOP included) will make the issue as “an unstable, overreaching President”, not the quality or faults of the AG. Trump’s in the exact, same situation, as when Barr should have been fired.
Bondi’s choice as AG is a mess. It’s not going to get better. It may unravel all the “MAGA” efforts to reverse the socialist “deep” state’s intended obliteration of our Constitutional republic. Trump is constrained by the Senate and Bondi’s incompetence.
Honestly, I said from day one that Trump needed to institute Martial Law, due to the Democrat’s insurrection of the 2020 fraudulent election of Biden. The auto-pen. The illegal, uncontrolled and indeed encouraged and aided, invasion – there’s a multi-page list of wholesale constitutional violations and literal treason committed against the American people by the Democrats. “Lawfully” resolving these issues isn’t possible when the law=lawfare. Martial Law removes these district court judges from the equation. Martial Law gives military tribunals to drive through the chaff to find facts, and convict the Democrat perps under a lower standard of guilt. Martial Law enables Trump to mass-deport Illegal Aliens without delay. Martial Law enables prosecution, imprisonment, and/or the death penalty for treason, to lawfare perps.
However, unlike the Democrats, Trump is NOT lawless. He is law-abiding, as is the MAGA movement in general. He is self-constrained from doing what I believed is necessary to reverse course, and return the nation to it’s roots as a Constitutional republic. I’ve been a pessimist all along, i.e. I don’t believe it’s possible to turn the ship of state around, away from Marxist-Socialism (or some sort of socialist-Islamic state). However, I was wrong last year, i.e. Trump was re-elected without Biden’s autopen declaring martial law and preventing him from taking office. He took office without being assassinated. He over came the lawless Democrats to LAWFULLY take office in his second term.
So, maybe I’m wrong about what it’ll take to turn things around. Right now, though, it’s about 160 to 3, as far as Trump winning against unconstitutional district court decisions and injunctions. His AG, Bondi will not aggressively stop this. The DOJ now knows with Martin, that she ~~ doesn’t ~~ have their backs. If any attorney sticks his neck out, he’s on his own. She’ll fire him/her, indict him, or slander him in the national media the second his effort fails or hesitates towards success. However, she’ll be standing in front of him if he succeeds, taking the credit, and barely mentioning him. Bondi’s tenure at DOJ is already a failure, because of that alone. Kash Patel and Harmeet Dhillon have to be cognizant of this as well, which limits their own scope of action.
as demonstrated by her constant parading on camera,
I would suggest President Trump does a lot of that too. Different results and different substance but maybe Trump has some insight we’re missing. Since we’ve put up with 10 years of the corrupt scheming democrat lawfare, I’ll give her 10 months.
Trump is optimistic, at least in public, that Iran, Russia, and other nations can overcome their storied pasts and get with the program of civilized nations. Japan did it. Vietnam did it. Germany, Italy, and it looks like now Argentina.
Maybe our president has too much faith that humanity is more good than evil, and it could be that he has faith in our AG. At least for now.
I would suggest President Trump does a lot of that too.
Different roles. Trump’s an elected politician. Bondi is not supposed to be. Huge difference.
I gave Bondi 3 months. Certainly she’s better than Garland, arguably better than Barr, but is that the standard required? 100+ TV interviews in 90 days was not what I expected from an impact oriented AG, who understands the battle at hand.
Where are the indictments? How many grand jury investigations regarding the Democrat crimes under color of authority (both in the Biden/Obama administrations, and current)? Remember all the MAGA meme’s about Barr and “bull” Durham? It was “our guy” (who was that again?! what was the movement called? They’re vapor now) deep inside Justice tells it’s coming, be patient, wait. Then nothing.
That’s where this goes with Bondi, too. What you see now is what you get in the future. If she really had pitt-bull teeth in the collective rear ends of the lawfare folks running D.C., there’d be leaks, smears, calls for resignations, impeachment, etc.. Curious how the Democrats have largely left Bondi alone, no? There ARE no grand jury investigations, other than what Kash is pursuing vis-a-vise illegal immigrant gang bangers and their leftist enablers. If there were, we’d know about it.
Bondi is nowhere near the speed of President Trump. Hopefully, there’s a lot of groundwork being done prior to making things public. Hopefully is a weasel word.
I want to see perp walks for all those involved in Lawfare, Covid cover-ups, the J6 folly of a committee, and every politician on the take from abroad. Start with the defunct, USAID!
As I just posted to @minnesotamike55 above, there ARE no perp walks coming, because there ARE no grand jury investigations ongoing that could lead to indictments, arrests, and prosecutions. We know that because when a lawfare associate is hit, there are leaks everywhere. Look what the Dems are doing to defend the Dem congress critters who broke the law, attacking ICE LEO’s. If an Elias or Eisner were subject to a grand jury investigation, or FBI criminal investigation, they’d shout it from the roof tops.
What you see with Bondi is what you’ll get in the future, if that much. Just like the GOP Congress (Senate and House) on the budget. Who’s budget is 2024? The GOP’s. What’s in it? All the crap they blamed Biden and the Democrats for. When D.O.G.E. revealed the criminal fraud and waste in government, all the pubbies swooned, shook their head, and said “They (government bureaucrats) deceived us, hid this, we had no idea.”.
Well, they have an idea now, and they won’t cut ANY of it. The budget will be bigger and porkier than effort, the biggest deficit in history, and the GOP will own every nickel of it.
So, like Bondi, like the GOP Congress, like the whole D.C. circuit, they’re all liars and frauds. /end rant

PS – 8.2% of PT 4 Year term is now gone and we have a big fat ZERO.
And how about the pipe bomber at the DNC? We ALL know it was likely an inside setup/job, but why don’t we hear a thing about it?
I believe that, by now, Bondi/Kash/Bongino all know WAAAY more than we know about what this was all about.
Yet… crickets…
Obviously NOT
If the Trump team are worried about the optics of giving Bondi the flick, why not put a Deputy in place as a driver, leaving Bondi in place but redundant. They did it with Biden who never ran the show.
My thoughts EXACTLY. Jeff Clark. John Eastman. Busbee, the TX lawyer. Alina Habab. Seculow. There are others.
Barbie Bondi can keep her figurehead position, but a legal tiger will be in charge.
