Forbes: Pam Bondi Fires DOJ Trump Prosecutions Staff
Pam Bondi Fires DOJ Trump Prosecutions Staff
Attorney General Pam Bondi has reportedly fired at least nine Justice Department employees involved in criminal cases against former President Donald Trump, with some sources suggesting the total could be as high as 35. These firings are part of Bondi's "Weaponization Working Group," aimed at addressing perceived abuses in the criminal justice process.

The terminations come amid criticism of Bondi from right-wing figures over the DOJ's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. As scrutiny grows, further firings may occur as the administration continues to assess employees viewed as adversaries to Trump.

How Trump adapts his tariff threats for economic, diplomatic and ideological ends
President Trump announced potential new customs duties on European Union imports, threatening a 30% surcharge if an agreement for a fully open market for American goods isn't reached. This follows similar threats to Canada and Mexico, with tariffs of 35% and 30%, respectively.

Despite these threats, markets remained largely unaffected, and Trump acknowledged that his previous commercial threats had not produced results, postponing the implementation of these tariffs to August 1. The president's approach has drawn criticism, earning him the nickname "TACO."

'I'm Not Built For This': George Santos Tells Tucker Carlson He Might Not 'Survive' Prison
Former U.S. Rep. George Santos expressed fear for his safety in prison during an interview with Tucker Carlson, stating he might not survive the 87-month sentence he received for wire fraud and identity theft. Santos, who identifies as gay, highlighted concerns about violence in prison and his lack of street experience.

Santos was expelled from Congress in December 2023 after being found guilty of multiple ethical violations, including filing false reports and misusing campaign funds. He described his prison sentence as a potential "death sentence" and emphasized his sheltered upbringing and lack of fighting skills.
