Pam Bondi given the boot. I wonder who's next? Maybe his press secretary (aka "Propaganda Barbie")?

 

I knew it was just a matter of time until he started firing staff who weren't loyal enough to him. So much for "only the best people" πŸ™„

The "Best people" were in his first term, they pretty much all went to prison ....

 

So this lot must be the 2nd best, which is still a gross over estimation of their abilities .

 

I wonder if she got her pardon, she may need that in a couple of years

I believe Bondi is still required by subpoena to appear before the house oversight committee around April 14th:

That won't change. Btw: Trump's old personal lawyer will be running the justice dept until a replacement is found.

Hegseth doing a Stalin and firing more top military brass.

 

Way to go........if you want to decapitate your ability to defend your country or heaven forbid wage war. Recent history shows how well this has gone down.

 

What a precocious idiot.

Getting my head around Trump pissing off Bondi, the person who could likely spill the beans on him.

"He's very angry and he's going to be moving people," an administration official familiar with the dynamics told POLITICO. That official and three other people with knowledge of Trump’s thinking around his Cabinet were granted anonymity to discuss the unresolved personnel issues.

 

Apparently he's looking at the whole rest of his cabinet now. He's only (mostly) fired females so far, apparently the males are untouchable. Peter Hegseth? Absolute crap. Kash Patel? Spare me. But (unsurprisingly for Trump) it's only the women he goes after πŸ™„

Nope, she has that Pardon dangling in front of her that she knows she will need in a couple of years.

 

Trumps justice dept is not going to offer her immunity, and I doubt Trump will still be around in 2 years, or in no condition to be charged...

Surely she's already blown the pardon. Pardons are for people Trump likes.

NOTUS - The White House App Is Riddled With Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities

 

03 April 2026

 


Cybersecurity researchers warn that the White House’s new app regularly shares users’ IP addresses, time zones and other data to third-party services. But most of its users wouldn’t know that, because the app doesn’t disclose its data sharing the way most others do.

 

The cybersecurity experts’ reviews of the app code turned up a host of issues that they say make data - for both users and some White House staffers - vulnerable.

 

Several told NOTUS they were shocked by the slipshod approach to cybersecurity by the federal government, especially while the U.S. is engaged in war.

 

The U.S. government’s infrastructure is being attacked from all sides right now, and having an amateur WordPress developer running the White House’s public presence puts everybody who visits it at risk,” Philip Fields, a cybersecurity researcher and former FBI intelligence analyst, told NOTUS. ...

 

The White House released the app last week, and Trump on Monday promoted it as a source for “front-row access to all news from your favorite president.” He encouraged all of his fans to download it.

 

A White House press release announcing the app’s launch said that it “delivers unparalleled access to the Trump administration.”

 

 

That may be the problem ...  πŸ™„

The Whitehouse app is developed by a company called 45Press based in Ohio. The owner runs some conspiracy YouTube with titles like "Did the Nazi's escape on a UFO"?

Apparently they mainly do wordpress and this is their first app. No surprise there.

Incredible the idiots who think the government are tracking you are the first to develop an app for the government to be able to actually track you.

β€œI don’t believe in building libraries or museums.”
Donald Trump, 31 March 2026

This line was spoken while Trump was taking questions in the Oval Office, just two days after unveiling plans for his presidential library project.

I hate AI content, but this one's sort of funny.

First the funny one; then the tragic one.
