Daily Caller: Pam Bondi Fires DOJ Employee Who Flipped Off National Guard Soldiers

Attorney General Pam Bondi terminated a Department of Justice paralegal Friday after the employee repeatedly made obscene gestures and cursed at National Guard members stationed in Washington, D.C., Fox News reported.

Elizabeth Baxter, who worked in the department’s environmental division, lost her position following an investigation into multiple incidents that occurred this month at the DOJ’s 4CON building in the NoMa district, according to Fox News. Security footage captured Baxter arriving at work on Aug. 18 just after 8:20 a.m., where she bragged to a security guard about flipping off a guardsman at Metro Center Metro Stop.

“F–k the National Guard,” she told the guard, the New York Post reported. Later that day, cameras recorded her demonstrating the gesture to department security personnel while exclaiming “F–k you!” The behavior continued on Aug. 25 when Baxter again boasted to security staff that she hated the National Guard and had told them to “F–k off!”

“Today, I took action to terminate a DOJ employee for inappropriate conduct towards National Guard service members in DC,” Bondi said, the outlet reported. “This DOJ remains committed to defending President Trump’s agenda and fighting to make America safe again. If you oppose our mission and disrespect law enforcement — you will NO LONGER work at DOJ.”

Bondi’s termination letter removed Baxter from her GS-11 Paralegal Specialist position effective immediately, according to the outlet. The firing follows the termination of Sean Charles Dunn, another DOJ paralegal who allegedly threw a sandwich at a Customs and Border Protection agent earlier this month. Dunn faces misdemeanor charges that could result in up to one year in jail. (RELATED: Pam Bondi Reveals Guy Who Allegedly Threw Subway Sub At Officer Worked For DOJ — He’s Now Out Of A Job)

The Trump administration recently deployed hundreds of federal agents and National Guard troops to Washington’s streets as part of efforts to reduce crime in the district.

Let’s hope Elizabeth Baxter files a lawsuit! Flipping the finger at government authority figures is a well-established right under the First Amendment. Not that Pam “Bimbo #3” Bondi particularly cares about either the law nor the Constitution.

From where you stand, it may look like you’re just watching unimaginable stuff go down, and nobody’s stepping in to stop it. In only eight months of his second term, President Donald Trump has managed to undermine the Constitution, disrupt the economy, send military troops to cities without congressional approval and divide the country over immigration, civil rights and more.

From local state officials to journalists and influential internet personalities, these powerful voices are urging folks to rebel against the Trump administration, and here’s exactly how they say it needs to be done.

Miami Herald: ‘It’s Outrageous’: Lawsuit Targets Alleged ICE Violations

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has reportedly detained Canton resident Jemmy Lindsay Jimenez Rosa over a decades-old marijuana conviction, sparking backlash due to her need for medication and certain necessities. Attorney Todd Pomerleau has challenged the plea, and a Massachusetts judge later dismissed the conviction. Rosa, 42, had been stopped and questioned by officers while returning from a family trip.

Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said, “Under Secretary Noem, we are delivering on President Trump’s and the American people’s mandate to arrest and deport criminal illegal aliens to make America safe. Secretary Noem unleashed ICE to target the worst of the worst and carry out the largest deportation operation of criminal aliens in American history.”

Rosa’s husband, Marcel Rosa, is a U.S. citizen. He noted that he had presented their passports and her renewed green card upon arrival.

Marcel said, “I walked in, and my wife’s head was just down, and you could tell her whole spirit was just crushed.” He added, “I just told my kids, I was like, hey girls… this might be the last time you see your mother.”

Pomerleau said he was first denied access and that Rosa needed hospital care during detention. He argued she lacked proper counsel when pleading to misdemeanor possession and sought to vacate the conviction.

Pomerleau stated, “The judge and prosecutor were shocked at the way she had been treated.” He added, “It’s outrageous … beyond the pale. These are people that have been in the system their whole lives, who have great jobs and pay taxes.”

A judge and prosecutor dismissed the case in state court, clearing her record. Despite the dismissal, federal authorities transferred her to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility where she has been able to contact family and counsel.

The family said the detention has traumatized the children and noted Rosa’s health conditions. Pomerleau has filed a lawsuit over due-process violations, and a bond hearing is set for later in August.

Slingshot News: ‘We’ve Taken Millions’: When Kristi Noem Bragged About Fining Americans To Donald Trump In A Cabinet Meeting

Daily Beast: Trump, 79, Ends Bedtime Truth Social Rant by Yelling Two Words

Rumors of the president’s death escalated over the weekend.

Donald Trump ended his proof of life Truth Social posting spree with a two-word and triple exclamation point sign off, “GOOD NIGHT!!!”

The 79-year-old president assured his MAGA followers and Never Trumpers he had “NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE” after a debate raged online about his health.

Rumors of his death escalated over the weekend after Trump had not been seen in public for most of the week, speculation fueled by his mysterious bruised hands and bulging cankles.

Trump’s health update responded to a post that said, “Joe Biden would go multiple days at a time without any public appearances and the media would say he’s `sharp’ and `top of his game’… Meanwhile he was wearing diapers and napping.”

Trump swamped his Truth Social account on Saturday with AI-generated content, and returned to the familiar ground of crime and all caps on Sunday.

He mentioned his crackdown in Washington twice in a row, posting, “DC IS NOW A CRIME FREE ZONE, IN JUST 12 DAYS!!! President DJT.”

Trump then shared what he claimed were crime stats from a “list I get every single day,” documenting the number of arrests made, offenses, and how many firearms were seized. He posted that there was one arrest over “assault on a federal officer and threats to the President.”

Switching topics, the president reposted a letter from Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, which supported Lisa D. Cook. Trump has accused Cook of mortgage fraud in his attempt to get her fired from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.

“We also see a troubling pattern of efforts to discredit leaders and experts who are eminently qualified and prepared to lead and to serve,” the letter from International President Cheryl W. Turner noted.

Trump ranted, “This is a total Conflict of Interest. The Judge must RECUSE, IMMEDIATELY!!! President DJT.” He also found time to slam U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb, who blocked his fast-deportation process.

“Same Judge as on Fed Case,” Trump posted. “I wonder how that happened??? Must recuse!!! President DJT.”

He then pivoted to another presidential passion project, the mean streets of Chicago, shouting, “CRIME IS TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL IN CHICAGO. 6 DEAD, 24 BADLY WOUNDED, LAST WEEK ALONE!!!”

Speaking on CBS’s Face the Nation on Sunday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the president had not ruled out potentially deploying National Guard troops in Chicago.

“That always is a prerogative of President Trump,” Noem said.

Just before he logged off for the night, Trump found time to return to his beloved tariffs, claiming they would bring “more than 15 trillion dollars” into the U.S.

He stated, “If a Radical Left Court is allowed to terminate these Tariffs, almost all of this investment, and much more, will be immediately cancelled! In many ways, we would become a Third World Nation, with no hope of GREATNESS again. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!!! President DJT.”

His concerns follow the U.S. Court of Appeals ruling on Friday that most of his tariffs are illegal. They found that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) statute used by Trump to impose international tariffs did not “explicitly include the power to impose tariffs.”

After that, the president tapped out with his “GOOD NIGHT!!!” post.

But is the creepster still alive?
