Attorney General nominee Pam Bondi is being guided through the Senate confirmation process by a lawyer named Chad Mizelle who was previously the 2017-2018 general counsel to Rod Rosenstein in Main Justice. Within the former position at DOJ Chad Mizelle was the guy who wrote the set of scope memos that authorized the Mueller investigation…. However, I am assured by those watching, it’s no big deal.
I’m reminded of a conversation with Eric Dublier Esq, when he said, essentially, “when analyzing motives of DC lawyers, remind yourself they do the thing they are paid to do.” The compass heading on a DC lawyer points directly to his/her bank account. Read this entire outline to truly understand just how accurate Dublier was.
WASHINGTON DC – As Pam Bondi prepares for confirmation as attorney general, she is working with a top lawyer from President-elect Donald Trump’s first term: Chad Mizelle, formerly acting general counsel at the Department of Homeland Security.
[…] Mizelle has been in meetings with Bondi in Florida as she prepares to lead the Justice Department, according to a person with knowledge of the preparations. At the beginning of Trump’s first term, he was counsel to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.
[…] Mizelle is general counsel for Affinity Partners, the investment firm helmed by Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner. And like Bondi, he has Florida roots: Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, his wife, is a Trump-appointed federal judge in Tampa. (read more)
After Mizelle left Main Justice, he eventually landed as acting General Counsel for DHS helping to organize the legal framework to deal with illegal immigration. It’s likely Mizelle is assisting Pam Bondi in preparations for questions about deportation proceedings that will be handled by Tom Homan.
As with all things lawyerly, you decide that Mizelle’s handler role for Bondi is during this confirmation process, and ultimately what this would indicate.
All opinions do not eliminate the reality that Mizelle, the general counsel to Rod Rosenstein, created the legal framework for Special Counsel Robert Mueller and Andrew Weissmann.
On May 17, 2017, Rod Rosenstein authorized the Mueller investigation. This is the scope memo that affirmed and authorized the specific targeting.
This is general counsel Chad Mizelle’s handiwork, on behalf of Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein:
Okay, so that 2017 scope memo is a little concerning -especially in hindsight- however, Mizelle was just doing his job and facilitating the intent of his boss in Main Justice, Rod Rosenstein. Seriously, I get it. He’s paid to do the thing, so he does the thing.
However, we are not quite done in the bizarro world of internecine DC political relationships.
Pam Bondi worked as a lobbyist for Ballard Partners, actually she still does; as of this writing she has not resigned her position at Ballard.
The legal firm of Ballard Partners is where AG nominee Pam Bondi and President Trump’s incoming Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles, intersect. Wiles left the lobbying group, Bondi still works there.
Now, here’s a remarkable coincidence….
There is currently a background conversation about Pam Bondi needing to recuse herself from any legal cases involving any of Ballard Partners lobbying clients. The list of companies with legal interface with the U.S. government is rather extensive and includes healthcare firms, tech groups, and a host of fortune 500 companies. {Details Here}
Pam Bondi represented a lot of corporate clients. Pam Bondi still works for Ballard Partners.
AG Jeff Sessions had to recuse himself from stuff, and it appears AG Pam Bondi will have to recuse herself from stuff.
Within the Bondi portfolio at Ballard Partners, there’s a name that is also in the headlines, UnitedHealthcare.
UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was recently assassinated in New York City.
What a strange world of coincidences.
Six degrees of Kevin Bacon, I guess.
Sweet picture of the bunny peering down the “rabbit hole”.
This one seems more fitting.
(Oh, and this….there are absolutely no “coincidences”.)
VERY fitting! The incestuous nature of politics produces never-ending rabbit holes. We’d probably be digging to China before we got an answer!
It’s a dirty game. How anyone involved in it keeps his or her soul…
They don’t except for One and you know who that is.
I stubbed my toe when I heard Scam Blondi was selected. I have fire cracker bushes to clone, and seedlings to arrange for the end of January.
I listened to everybody here, and now have more beans and rice than a paella restaurant on the docks, instead of rolling the dice and having a bunch of plants ready now for Newcomers.. oh well. Gumbo will be ready at the first okra
Know what you mean, my brother. I’d be lying if I said the announcement of her nomination didn’t knock the wind out of my sails. Like you, I sat back and read, no commenting on this one. The landscape is looking very familiar, alas. Hate the phrase, but time will tell.
Love the White Rabbit. Pocket watch? Moar popcorn, then moar, and moar…..
All gentlemen (rabbits) carry pocket watches 😉 I love him, too.
I had beautiful White Rabbit and Alice collectable dolls stolen by my one-and- only break-in. 😭
Oh Lorrie……………..

Plans within plans..
Just when I think I can’t possibly be any more cynical than I already am, here comes Sundance with another story, full of “strange coincidences” involving the ever incestuous Swamp…I really don’t know why I am even slightly surprised anymore, though. There is nothing new under the Sun!
“Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great upon the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was altogether evil all the time.” Genesis 6:5
“The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked….” Jeremiah 17:9
“As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous— not even one. There is no one who understands, no one who seeks God.…” Romans 3:10-11
There’s the “R” word…Recusal.
And Diogenes still carries his lamp, looking for an honest man…or woman.
Does “recusal” apply to the Left?
Of course not, don’t be silly! /sarc
If AG Bondi did agree to “recuse”in some cases ie was told to do so by her boss, PDJT, which one of PDJTs other picks would take her place for those cases?
Bottom line, thanks to Sundance for reminding me to pray for everyone who is entering the DC voters den with PDJT.
And to also pray for everyone already there.
Hopefully many sauls will ultimately become pauls.
(Thinking 🤔)
No.
It is of the highest importance in the art of detection to be able to recognize, out of a number of facts, which are incidental and which vital. Otherwise your energy and attention must be dissipated instead of being concentrated.

The rabbit hole started with nominating Bondi. Did Kushner affect Bondi’s selection and now Mizelle’s involvement? FTA: “Mizelle is general counsel for Affinity Partners, the investment firm helmed by Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner. ”
But, then, don’t all these incestuous relationships appear when anyone related to swamp shenanigans enters the room?
Whenever the old pavlovian cue word, “KuShNeR” is deployed its fun to note whether anyone believes that beta kid is President Trumps super scary evil genius puppet master ie whether that cue word triggers an automatic emotional self poisoning response which is then turned into a toxic word sperg.
I’m trying to wrap my head around…
Hubby Chad is guiding the Mueller SC Russian Hoax investigation to put President Trump in Federal Prison while President Trump appoints Chad’s wife to a federal judgeship in Tampa.
Why am I having a problem with this…I ask myself?
at this point, why not hire her too? Shed fit right in with Loeffler and Bondi.
What image would a person with deep knowledge put in that table reflection?
Wow! Minnie Mouse ears! Is this a tell for her possible involvement in the Disney swamp? I wonder how much of the crossover between DC and Disney/Florida/ pizzagate will come out.
BTW, President Trump, while you are in Paris, tell Prince William that we want the British Crown sovereign territory part of Florida that is Disney World back.

is that an actual photo of Hannity?
If so, boy has he ever aged
“Is that an actual photo of Hannity?”
Kudos for asking a question rather than falling for rage bait and rEEEeeeacting.
Answer:
No, its not real. Its emotionally mamipulative, psyop pic bait.
The internet was flooded with Decrepit Drumpf pics that were created using the same aging program, especially during the 2024 election.
PsyWar naivete can have deadly consequences these days.
Actually the picture itself IS the joke/meme. It speaks to the irony of, and pokes fun at, Hannity’s always knowing something big RIGHT NOW; which is going to go Boom, SOME TIME SOON!
Just because it didn’t come with flashy video, loud music and at least one car explosion, it’s still just a meme, meant to make an agitprop point.
Living “Groundhog Day” will do that to you..
If she is confirmed, and then recuses herself, if she is confirmed and then PDJT fires her, or she gets hit by a bus, WHO takes over as acting, the very next day, and until PDJT can nominate her replacement.
Why, that would be the Deputy A.G., in the same way Rosie took over after Sessions bowed out.
WHO has PDJT nominated to be Deputy A.G. and why don’t we see a big, deep dive on HIM?
It appears that Todd Blanche and Emil Bove will be #2 and #3 below Bondi. I don’t know anything about them but I’m certainly going to research them.
Blanche is Caitlin Collins lunch “buddy” now. What evil arse holes
And where is the CoS right now? Is Susie just a surface handler? Right now, Todd Blanche shouldn’t be anywhere near PDJT unless, of course, the “lunch meetings” are a distraction.
Bondi, IF confirmed, WILL recuse herself when, not if, a challenge to PDJT occurs.
What IS it with the Florida connections??
Get the power out of New York State.
I think it’s pretty simple.
President Trump has moved to Florida, from New York. He’s building his power block in Florida with loyal Floridians.
I don’t think that’s a hard sell.
And as far as Todd Blanche having lunch with Caitlin…whatever from CNN: Is it plausible that Blanche might be getting info from this CNN News Reader BABE to HELP President Trump and his MAGA movement?
You know devious movements works both ways in politics; they’re all screwing each other over, every.single.day.
But that’s just me and my weird thinking.
Susie Wiles has been with DJT since 2015.
She is VERY experienced, VERY savvy, VERY effective and VERY loyal to PDJT
Hence, the Regime Medias hit job smears which attempt to undermine her and/or take her out, that began to be published in early 2024.
YES….I saw that. What is that all about?
Guilt by Association ie a very public lunch pic?
By that metric, DJT is an Epstein bff pedo, P Diddy rape party attendee and “evil arse hole” for talking with Morning Joe, Mika and other well known Mockingbird press employees.
Isn’t Todd Blanche the deputy AG? The guy seen having lunch with CNN’s Kaitlin Collins?
He is indeed the one seen lunching with Collins.
“Lunching with Collins”.
In public.
In DC.
OMG. Pass out the pearls and smelling salts then pull up the fainting couches asap!!!
That obvious psyop bait pic was hilariously lame.
REEEEeeee!!!
OMG guise, this pic PROVES it. Trumps guy Blanche is definitely bad. And Drumpf is definitely dumb.
Lol.
I’ve always wondered what was the blackmail they had on Mr Magoo to get him to recuse himself from an investigation that never had a shred of evidence? Wimpy Comey knew he was going to step down before he announced it.
Comey Testimony Raises New Questions About Jeff Sessions And Russia
https://www.npr.org/2017/06/08/532146805/comey-testimony-raises-new-questions-about-jeff-sessions-and-russia
Got Ol’ Sessions with the Russian Stripper..
For Sessions Magoo, it was those man-love flings in high school and college, he wouldn’t touch a Russian Stripper with a ten foot pole, unless the stripper was one of those Chippendales types with a ten inch pole…
I didn’t care for that sumb!tch for what he said about people like me with irreparable damage genuinely trying to ditch opioids with the reefer (oh the horror) saying ” you just trade one for the oh-thaa” damn right, buddy.
I guess ol smug Sessions had the last laugh the way they have pimped weed out here to the point no one can get any relief.
Watch the Florida system collapse now that Amendment 3 didn’t pass.
Accusations == confessions
Unlike most people, even those who aren’t in DC but are instead just Screen World viewing gossips about people who actually are in the Heart of DCs Darkness, there was no blackmail dirt on Sessions.
neutralization by repeated recusals?
i like it!😂
Wouldnt be surprised if they hired Jenna Ellis for Deputy AG at this point.
Why not Mark Elias?
President Trump hiring Jebba to be his “Deputy AG”.
❤ 😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing such an over the top, obvious joke.
Hopefully it helps break whatever petty psyop spell some opiners are under.
Lol… Of course, because those whom think differently than you, simply must be under a spell.
Lynn Wood not available?
Todd Blanche is Deputy AG…the very one seen having a deep conversational lunch with CNN Caitlin Collins this week. A democrat until I believe ‘94.
This is all beyond pathetic and nothing any of us voted for.
Hence why that pic was published.
Perhaps it is also why it was staged.
“Trolling is fun. We like to do a little trolling g” — PDJT
Besides being fun, trolling provides great intel. Especially to genius devotees of Sun Tsu, like PDJT.
Some people apparently still believe, for whatever reason, that The DC derp state is super duper smart while PDJT and his allies are super duper dumb.
Consequently, they view every success PDJT has against The DC derps for 9+ YEARS is due to Orange Man getting lucky. Again.
That would be Todd Blanche, Esq. He was seen yesterday in a restaurant having lunch with Cailtlin Collins of CNN. The photo was taken by Raheem Khassan. Things are getting curiouser and curiouser.
Trumps Sun Tsus versus the DC machiavellians
Yep, the schema that SD laid out at the outset.
Matt Gates lol
She gives me the Hebe jeebies.
You know, I agree. I checked her out as much as possible. I thought she was a he. She’s creepy.
Is that “The Twilight Zone” theme music that I hear in the background? 😐
No, I think it’s the theme from Deliverance…
The man in the photo looks like Lindsey Graham.
But then, maybe I need a new ophthalmologist.
My cataracts are acting up again.
UniParty Swamp Creatures are just like herpes. They never go away.
Sorry to hear that.
Heck, recuse right out of the box? Lets not do that again. That alone should be enough to withdraw her.
Nominate whomever you like. I doubt the results will be much different then what we have seen already. The sewer will straight up not allow a pick that they cannot control by some mechanism or other in critical positions.
“Thou prepare a table before me, in the presence of my enemies” , my cup overfloweth!
I want conservatives like Sarah Palin the rest are 2016 retreads
Apparently we’re in for a repeat
The Politico article says that Mizelle is a long-time ally of Stephen Miller.
All is not lost.
Thanks for that add on friend.
Thank you!
So we believe Politico now?
Huh?
Thats a bit like believing the New York Times.
Fwiw
From my experience, when it comes to getting accurate DC political insider data points, sans an emotionally reactive filter that often accompanies Republican, Conservative and/or MAGA sites, Politico is very useful. Ditto Axios.
Rabbit or sink hole?
“rabbit or sink hole”
or neither
Perhaps “the only winning move is to not play” and/or to play a totally different game than the one being presented as the only game?
Gonna gonna Graham sitting with Pammy … birds of a feather … What is Trump thinking?
Lol
Round about the cauldron go

‘they just do what they are paid to do”

perhaps its just me, but my conscience and sense of ethics would not allow me to

I cannot forgive Pam Bondi for her part in the attempt to send an innocent man to prison
regardless of Obama’s directive
Dear Father
Please forgive me the same way I’ve forgiven everyone You send into my life.
And thank you, Father, for letting ME choose rather than deciding for me.
Yipes???
With all of the amazing, incredibly talented, steadfast and morally uncompromised people in the world who no doubt would love to work for his administration, why does our President Trump have to end up with losers like Pam Bondi?
There are some incredible attorneys out there – why her? Why pick someone with so much baggage whose loyalties obviously lie elsewhere?
I have complete trust and faith in our President but I have my doubts about some of the people in his entourage.
And THAT’S the $64,000 question that no one can answer!
“No one”
Such certainty is intriguing.
yep … WHY???????????????
It’s a small town, Sundance.
A small town but a big club.
And we ain’t in it.
“And we aint in it”
😍 Thank God.
“a big club”
Perhaps this well.known estimate of The Clubs size is due to The Clubs intentional, self protective, propaganda rather than being an estimate that accurately reflects reality?
From what I’ve observed, its actually “a small club” made up of banal mediocres so I’m delighted that I’m not in that club, although I’ve visited there incognito enough to make an informed membership decision.
Remember what Dorothy and her companions believed about the Wizard of Oz and His Emerald City before Toto helped them to start waking up? Sometimes fiction == more transcendently true than what we’re told is real life true.
Keep on barking, Toto Trump. 😘
A big club in a small town, or maybe the Swamp is really like a big hot-tub where they all laugh and drink and look at each other naked.
All roads lead to Susie Wiles. Gaetz, Bondi, Chronister, DeSantis, even Rubio, she is the prime mover behind the removal of Gaetz from consideration and the subbing of Bondi. She is also the one pushing DeSantis for SecDef vice Hegseth. As they used to say in the Tarzan Movies, “Bad juju Bwana”. I am curious as to how she connects to the first Butler, PA rally. Was she the one who encouraged the decision to go there? I have my suspicions about it.
How very Florida of it all.
Florida == a main war zone state in this viciius, winner takes all civil war between Trump and Trump aligned Republicans AND UniParty Establishment Republicans.
Hence many of PDJTs moves that may be confusing to some, especially those who are now rivetted by the 24/7 DC Game of Thrones Soap Opera.
Gordian Knot temptations can be hard to resist.
However, resistance is NOT futile.
I have to say that in so much of the interwebs discussion of the Brian Thompson murder, there is a general agreement that the whole thing is really weird. This is not a conservative or liberal viewpoint. Everybody seems to get the same impression.
Was he REALLY murdered?
How would any Screen World viewer know for sure?
Plus, why would any viewer actually need to know anything more than that they dont actually know, and might never know, the truth, even about whether the TV peoples story about his murder was true?
get her OUT now. President Trump is making a SERIOUS mistake.
OMG dumb dumb Drumpfs making another “SERIOUS mistake”????
😘 😂😂😂
If the fate of our country hinges on Pam Bondi’s nomination we are already hopelessly lost.
Ain’t that the truth.
Lots of whining.
“Lots of whining”
Indeed.
Wondering how many whiners are also cat owners
However, whether they have cats or don’t, reactives who turn President Donald Trump, of all people, into Toddler Baby T, then larp as his over protective helicopter mommies are a fascinating phenomenon.
Personally, I wouldnt be disappointed if this pick failed approval.
“I wouldnt be disappointed”
Hopefully, ditto “if this pick” by President Trump IS “approved”.
Spit. What a bunch of “Better Call Saul” wannabes with functional immunity.
I do think that’s more easy understanding the demonrats than the republicans.
Mueller could not have happened without Rosenstein.
One big rat
If true, then thank God for Rod.
The picture being painted of Pam Bondi is not conducive to MAGA, but she’s been close to Trump world for a long time, right? Very worrisome, along with Marco Rubio.. I was shocked by Marco, where’s Ric? Especially with what Mike Benz is saying about Marco in his Joe Rogan interview.
How does PDJT know who can be trusted? We must pray for discernment.
A thoroughly corrupt and evil woman probably should not be trusted.
“We must pray for discernment”
Amen.
Discernment == becoming a Scot Pressler daily Trump helpful, DOER rather than a Screen World tranced, emotionally stressed VIEWER critiquer of DOERS.
That pep talk from Dilley must have been a doozy. 🤣🚢
Inbrednessness! All political!!
All life!!
As the bible makes clear, “ONLY God is truly good”.
Consequently, every discovered imperfection and flaw == more proof that person is REAL ie not a FAKE
Sooooooooooooooooo, let HER recuse!
I do believe there is a Deputy AG who can more than handle the tasks that President Trump points to and nods.
I know this is politics in DC; however, I have experienced the exact same politics, only on a lower level of government.
None of this surprises me, but I do believe President Trump is completely aware of this and has been and will continue to plan accordingly.
I don’t underestimate him at all.
I am increasingly disliking the Bondi selection. The hood thing is– he can fire her.
“hood” thing?
How about the “good” thing is?!
IMO…Trump knows all this …but he has to work with people in the system.. he will give some here and take some there…I trust Trump because of what he did in 2016-2020.. so maybe he has a plan B for all the RINOS he has to work with …🙏
🇺🇸💪😀👍
Welcome to the machine….
Would Bondi have to recuse herself regarding possible charges against FaucI/ So many reasons to oppose her for this appointment.
I find no comfort in seeing Lindsey Graham grinning from ear to ear.
Sigh. Show me who you are with, and I will tell you who you are. Blondie Bondi better be kept on a very short leash. Her main agenda should be overseeing the National Razor for the Biden, Pelosi, Romney, and Cheney Crime Families. Gaetz must have been very radioactive for him to bow out. Sad.
Sigh, it just keeps going from bad to worse, yank them already, Bondi and Wiles.
If it smells like a swamp, it’s a swamp.
this Bondi nomination gets worse by the minute. I did not contribute to PDJT for this. Very poor job Don, Jr, Kushner, Susie Wiles, et al. Pull the plug Mr. President.
Shouldn’t ’recusal’ be a question for the nominee?
Just a thought, can we as the deplorable, trash, have a say in who he picks to ‘fluff’ our politicians. I’m thinking, heck just get trumps ole flame as AG Stormy, or maybe Clinton’s side Monica L.
Or hey that intern who filmed porn in our capital. I’m sure Lindsey Gramnesty would love that nominee.
This is same ole crap. More and more I look towards Elon and Vivek for change but I have a really bad feeling when Musk adds his comments it will fall on deaf ears.
We shall soon see.
Bottom line the crimes are many and deep involving hundreds. Pam will show if she is a swamp plant or true MAGE within the first 60 days IMO.
The conspiracy to take down a sitting President and a Presidential candidate is just too overwhelming and an investigation should be announced IMO within 30 days but no more than 60.
Unfortunately she does not strike me as an ass kicker. I hope I am very wrong.
Ash licker would be more like it.
Hope it all works out because we know where the buck stops.
Why are deep state names that the Trump administration is supposedly “going after”
being outted.
Is this deliberate leverage for them to leave, or a heads up to get on a blanket pardon list?
Another pick — Tulsi Gabbard is bffs with Megan McCain (godmother to Megan’s daughter). *I know this was previously posted.
Megan is extremely loyal, and outspoken regarding the memory of neocon, deep state daddy. Why wouldn’t she be? However, this close connection to someone in such an important position in the incoming administration is a cause for concern.
These connections trouble me. I can’t unsee them. Please God, have some truly tough MAGA advisers surround this man.🙏
Admittedly, I am one of the people who gets irked with the doomers. 🤐
However, like most posting here, I just want the cabinet to fully support MAGA principles.
No more snakes! 🐍🐍🐍
I think Tulsi went to that Klaus Schwabb school for young leaders.
What goes around, comes around. Seems it’s true in this instance. Instead of the Texas 2-step, it’s now the Florida mis-step.
It just keeps getting worse and worse with this one.

There are no coincidences, only corruption.
IMO Pam Bondi is a “plant” and a snake … and some folks herein have disagreed w/ that assessment of her in the past … and that’s O.K. We’ll agree to disagree on that score …
But that doesn’t change my opinion (based on observations, study, and Bondi’s history) that she’s still a “PLANT” and a SNAKE … and Trump should ditch her ASAP if he doesn’t want yet ANOTHER problematical backstabber in his Cabinet …
And after reading the above article, you still don’t think she’s what I’ve described ??? Then go do some “stupid-study” (a Navy term, not an “insult”) on her part in things like George Zimmerman/Trayvon Martin , Red Flag laws in Florida, and gun control legislation in the same GREAT State …
And show me where I’m “wrong” … ’cause we cannot afford to be “wrong” any longer …
I concur. 👍
