Morale among the staff attorneys at the US Attorneys' offices nationwide was already rock bottom. This is only going to make it worse. Five years from now, there will be evaluation of damage Trump has done and DOJ is going to be a major case study.

Why didn't she say "This administration SUCKS!"? That's the source of her problem. Sounds like she's getting what she deserves as a paid lacky.

Donald Trump’s Department of Justice moved to dismiss a criminal case against his former aide Steve Bannon, connected to his refusal to testify before Congress relating to the investigation into the January 6 insurrection.
The controversial hard-right strategist, an ally of Trump, was convicted in 2022 on two counts of contempt of Congress after refusing to appear for a deposition before the House committee that investigated the 2021 attack on the Capitol and declining to produce documents requested by the committee.
Federal prosecutors previously said that Bannon believed he was “above the law” by refusing to comply with the subpoena.
Bannon served four months in federal prison in 2024, after a failed attempt to force the US supreme court to reverse his sentence. He was released shortly before the 2024 presidential election, in which Trump defeated Kamala Harris.
The justice department wrote in its unopposed motion on Monday to dismiss the case: “The government has determined in its prosecutorial discretion that dismissal of this criminal case is in the interests of justice.”
The motion was signed by US attorney Jeanine Pirro.……..

There won't be any consequences while the Republicans are in control which is aggravating. I hope that the next Democratic administration and Attorney General are less concerned about tradition and being bipartisan than Biden and Garland were.Once again - facts seem to contradict DOJ filings.

A large banner featuring Donald Trump’s face was hung on the exterior of justice department headquarters on Thursday in a physical display of the president’s efforts to exert power over the law enforcement agency that once investigated him.
While Trump banners have been hung outside other agencies across Washington, the decision to place one on the storied justice department building amounted to a striking symbol of the erosion of the department’s tradition of independence from White House control.
The banner, hung between two columns on one corner of the building, says “Make America Safe Again” – a slogan used by the administration to tout its efforts to clamp down on illegal immigration and violent crime.……

The Justice Department has reportedly abandoned a prospective case about the Biden administration’s use of an autopen, which President Donald Trump and his Republican allies have long alleged were part of a cover-up meant to hide his predecessor’s cognitive decline.
Veteran prosecutors were skeptical of the case to begin with and were unsure of what crime former President Joe Biden or his aides could be charged with committing, The New York Times reports, citing three unnamed people briefed on the probe.
The abandoned investigation, which began in 2025, marks the latest stumble in the president’s campaign to launch high-profile federal investigations against his political rivals.
Biden has said he “made every decision” under scrutiny by his critics, though he used an autopen, which are common for government officials, to sign some documents.…….

CNN) — A federal judge has quashed subpoenas the Justice Department had issued against Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, according to court documents unsealed Friday.
US District Judge James “Jeb” Boasberg wrote in the new opinion that a “mountain of evidence suggests that the Government served these subpoenas on the Board to pressure its Chair into voting for lower interest rates or resigning.”
“On the other side of the scale, the Government has produced essentially zero evidence to suspect Chair Powell of a crime; indeed, its justifications are so thin and unsubstantiated that the Court can only conclude that they are pretextual,” Boasberg said…….
