My analytical and historic opinion of Pam Bondi is well known {GO DEEP}. CTH previously faced anger and scorn from those who disagreed. However, from CTH long-term perspective, Bondi was/is a political animal lacking intellectual acumen and carrying outlooks subject to popular political perspectives. She was over her head from day one, but Susie Wiles liked her former colleague a lot.
As U.S. Attorney General, Bondi does not have the ability to independently strategize against the Lawfare system that has corrupted Main Justice and U.S. politics. That said, from the position of protecting President Trump from attacks, Bondi is effective, and thus criticism of her inabilities should be tempered.
Last night, President Trump posted on Truth Social that the clock was ticking, and no accountability has yet been delivered against those who weaponized government power structures against himself and the American people [SEE HERE]. Shortly thereafter, President Trump was asked about his criticisms of Bondi. WATCH:
President Trump’s social media post: “Pam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, “same old story as last time, all talk, no action. Nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam “Shifty” Schiff, Leticia??? They’re all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done.” Then we almost put in a Democrat supported U.S. Attorney, in Virginia, with a really bad Republican past. A Woke RINO, who was never going to do his job. That’s why two of the worst Dem Senators PUSHED him so hard. He even lied to the media and said he quit, and that we had no case. No, I fired him, and there is a GREAT CASE, and many lawyers, and legal pundits, say so. Lindsey Halligan is a really good lawyer, and likes you, a lot. We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility. They impeached me twice, and indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!! President DJT“
One hour later, President Trump posted this:
As noted in the original post, “nothing is being done” because, well, nothing is being done.
Apparently, President Trump is receiving information from those in/around his orbit who are increasingly hearing the frustrated voices of his supporters. However, simultaneously the value of AG Pam Bondi lies in her primary skillset of keeping President Trump protected from political and lawfare attacks.
As previously noted by The Associated Press: […] Bondi worked as a lobbyist for Ballard Partners, the powerful Florida-based firm where Trump’s campaign chief and incoming chief of staff Susie Wiles was a partner. Her U.S. clients have included General Motors, the commissioner of Major League Baseball and a Christian anti-human-trafficking advocacy group.
As long as Chief of Staff Susie Wiles is safe and in solid position, Pam Bondi is safe and in solid position.
Susie Wiles is the filter that controls information that reaches President Trump. Susie Wiles controls the people, subjects, inputs and information who reach the Oval Office.
If President Trump is unaware of an issue, it’s entirely because Susie Wiles keeps that issue away from President Trump. If President Trump is advocating a specific position with strong determination, it’s because that position is very important to Susie Wiles. That’s the reality of the dynamic.
According to Susie Wiles she was “asked by a mutual friend” to travel to New York and meet with candidate Trump in “late December 2015.” That timeline would be post-Fox Debate (Megyn Kelly attempted hit – Aug ’15), when President Trump was leading every Republican primary poll and became the enemy of the professional Republican establishment.
That mutual friend was likely well-known lobbyist and friend of President Trump, Brian Ballard {GO DEEP}. Susie Wiles was a “partner” at Ballard Partners. Both Susie Wiles and Pam Bondi connect to President Trump personally and professionally through Brian Ballard.
2018 – “Ballard, like most of Florida’s Republican establishment, backed Jeb Bush in the primary, but when Trump called he offered to do what he could for his client. In September, as it became clear that Trump’s lead in the polls wasn’t going away, Ballard dispatched Wiles to New York to meet with Trump. Wiles was named the Trump campaign’s Florida co-chairwoman a few weeks later.” {SOURCE}
Susie Wiles was also the advocate behind Mike Waltz being selected as the first National Security Advisor. We said at the time of the announcement that NSA Waltz would fail and likely be the first to exit; he did and was.
For those critical of AG Pam Bondi’s performance, the issue doesn’t resolve until the issue of Susie Wiles is addressed. That’s a very long shot. Read the Ballard Partner contract carefully:
I wish President Trump would make up his mind about Pam Bondi. Right now it’s like watching a ping pong match close up.
And what’s this about Tom Homan that the President shied away from?
All.it looks like is SSDD. Granted, we don’t know behind the scenes issues but, in terms of issues that have been screaming to be redressed forever? Crickets.
No one needs a FOX News talking head in a position requiring an intelligent, knowledgeable, vicious attack dog.
As free speech lawyer Robert Barnes calls her, “Swampy Suzie”.
Barnes should probably be AG. He’s rarely wrong and he fights evil like a rabid terrier.
He’s the one who bet a bunch with Vegas bookies for Trump to win in 2016. Remember the long odds on that? Hillary projected to win like 98%. Lol.
He won millions.
He also warned against ACB as Justice, said that she was, able all, an institutionalist… Not an Originalist (Thomas & Alito) or Textualist (Scalia), that she would betray MAGA. And she did.
ACB is from Notre Dame University.
Bondi prosecuted George Zimmerman for Obama.
Both major red flags.
Neither one should have been nominated for their respective positions.
The GOP establishment in the Senate would never confirm Barnes as AG. They’ll only confirm Swamp protectors.
Maybe PT needs to insist that Barnes or someone like him will report to AG Bondi, with the understanding that she WILL support and expedite his agenda.
OldDog: “Maybe PT needs to insist that Barnes or someone like him will report to AG Bondi, with the understanding that she WILL support and expedite his agenda.”
It’s not a maybe. That’s the way it should be done; and, given the realities of the situation, that’s the way it has to be done.
Barnes — or someone like Barnes — becomes more than a subordinate of Bondi. He becomes the White House liaison to the DOJ and he is the de facto AG for day-to-day operations and for personnel decisions.
Bondi assumes a figurehead role and issues press releases and gives rah rah speeches at public events defending the Trump MAGA agenda.
And if she doesn’t do what the White House liaison tells her to do, Barnes or someone else, she is shown the door and a series of acting AG’s who aren’t the White House liaison are assigned the task of issuing press releases and giving rah rah speeches at public events defending the Trump MAGA agenda while the liaison does the real work of managing the DOJ.
Maybe that’s why P. Trump appointed this new guy. I’ve long thought that Bondi should be an AG in name only, w/the real power behind the throne to be 2nd in command on paper, but the real force of the Dept.
In the style of Sessions and Rosenstein – it worked for the goose, should work for the gander. Agreed.
I was disappointed Swamp Mistress of the WH spoke at Charlie’s service. His choice of Maggie Cleary is a bad one too, definitely strings pulling in that one. UGH.
I bet if THOUSANDS responded on Truth Social Trump would hear MAGA, Blondi and Susie are not your friends, or ours.
Time to flood Truth Social with Actual Reality..
Noticing Kushner has been visibly in POTUS inner circle lately. Thought they were staying away this time around.
Sounds as if Trump is starting to hear from people other than Susie and Pam about the slowness of prosecutions. I can see why Bongino is so frustrated.
Qatar will pay $115,000 per month for anti human trafficking consulting? Anti human trafficking? Really? Does that seem odd to anyone else?
I think the first tweet was supposed to be a text to her and instead was mistakenly posted to Truth. He started the text with “Pam: ….” He wouldn’t have said that in a public Truth
Bingo!!! Great Catch
You have a point. Why not call her into the Oval Office and tell it to her face?
Put Stephen Miller in, he is the deputy assistant right? I do get confused w/all the titles as well as the nepotism and back scratching favors that goes on.
What to do about Susie Wiles? She is not MAGA.
Alli: “What to do about Susie Wiles? She is not MAGA.”
Find someone PDJT trusts more than he does Suzie Wiles to tell him in no uncertain terms that she has come between him and the MAGA voters who put him in office. And that he has to make a clear choice. He either listens to her or he listens to us.
Stephen Miller
Was it ever discovered why exactly Bongino was so angry at Bondi? I know there were theories but I never read anything. I might have missed it. So much to read! 😁
If Bongino serves in this administration through it’s term without the deep state being prosecuted then his time will be wasted.
He would have better served the American public by keeping his podcast as a check and balance and to hold PJT accountable to the movement.
MAGA took over from where the Tea Party fizzled out. However, Turning Point USA was there too and is arguably more powerful moving forward. They are connecting with the old and young voters alike and are in the process of taking back every college and high school.
Top level MAGA bends a knee to Israel. This is a failure of that movement.
We need TP USA to keep Israel/Mossad from gaining hold within their organization. If they do, then the MAGA movement may be folded into TP USA.
If accountability fails then America fails. It’s like courage and why courage is so critical to existence: it secures all the other virtues and benefits of civilized governance.
This analysis is highly doubtful because it omits the role of Trump’s sons who unquestionably know what is going on. The more likely reality is that Wiles is the designated scapegoat, and Bondi is doing nothing because Trump wants her to do nothing. Trump is subject to pressures we cannot fully understand and know, including pressures which some websites have declared they will deliberately ignore.
Such as? That’s a very cryptic statement.
One example: Trump is under enormous pressure from Israel and Israeli loyalists in America and elsewhere. It is categorically implausible that Trump would place Israel’s interests above America’s, but that is what he is doing (apparently), even to the point of insulting and belittling his most ardent supporters.
Again, just using this as one example, Trump’s sons know how their father is perceived (trading out America first for Israel first), and IMO it is impossible they have not informed him.
There are other pressures and complications, other realities, and Sundance has stated that he is not going to discuss Israel to avoid confusing his readers on those other realities. That decision in itself reflects the sort of pressure Trump is under to do things – – ignoring a significant aspect of not pretending – – which conflict with (we hope) are his true convictions.
That would be DOJ spokesperson Pam Bondi…
Trump talks to anybody and everybody. The idea that Wiles is somehow keeping him in a bubble is silly. He was with Dana White at the Kirk memorial. Do you think Dana White isn’t speaking his mind? If Trump is in a bubble it is because he wants to be.
