Attorney General Pam Bondi has moved into military housing after facing growing threats from cartels and irate Americans, according to a new report.

The New York Times reported on Tuesday that Bondi moved out of her Washington, D.C. apartment and moved into a military base in the area. The report noted that Bondi has been facing numerous threats since the Trump administration’s decision to capture Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro in January. At the same time, a growing number of Americans are increasingly frustrated with Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, according to the report.

“Ms. Bondi is the latest administration official to move into heavily guarded quarters at military facilities in or near the nation’s capital after citing danger from criminals, adversaries overseas and protesters,” the report reads in part.

    “Leaders move into walled compounds” has to be on the dystopian dictatorship checklist.

      Absolutely.

      She’s not running scared. She’s helping to create a new normal. When election season is in full swing, the oligarchs will proclaim ‘oh, it’s so dangerous, we can’t even be in public. only ICE can save the elections.’

    Good.

    Hope she lives the rest of her life in fear, particularly the part after she isn’t allowed to remain on a military base anymore.

    She can flee the country. Then we can hunt her down like we hunted Nazis down after WW2.

      I look forward to seeing the trials for these people. I have a LGBT teenager and have felt actual fear and worry just from her going to pride events. Its petty and hateful, but I want them to be scared. I want them to be arrested and literally worried about prison … or worse. These people know what they are doing. No one accidentally makes a Nazi salute.

      Death is too good for the people we usually think deserve it the most. Let them marinate if fear for a long, long time.

      Let’s not go the vigilante way. Everyone of these psychopaths deserve their Neurenberg moment, and fuck, will I be watching that…

      You mean to rehire her as a diplomat or something? I’m not sure that’s a good idea, tbh.

    Fuck this cunt, I really hope we get some justice and she goes to prison. But until then I hope she feels scared every waking and even when she sleeps.

      That’s why they had to move her to a military installation. Like the movie SPEED, she is in great danger when it falls below 50.

      Right? It’s bullshit. Stephen miller already moved onto a base.

      They do it because they think they’ll be safe there.

      Why do they need to be safe? They’re stealing our country, that’s why.

        Noem! Dropped like a hot potato she is deep in the finding out stage now.

        … took me a while to realize you mean Hegseth. These are all rather big names.

        According to the article above they did it “citing danger from criminals, adversaries overseas and protesters”. No adversaries at home? Only criminals and protesters?

    Maduro has no connections to cartels and the trump regime has released prominent cartel figures so ‘cartel threats’ is a lie.

    If this is anything more than a publicity stunt, the only real threat is maga voters upset at her covering for pedophiles. Whether the victims are the innocent or maga, the perpatrators are always maga.

      ‘cartel threats’ is a lie.

      Agreed. The phrasing was they had to move “citing danger from criminals, adversaries overseas and protesters”. The placement of the “overseas” qualifier strikes me as deliberate; I think plenty domestic adversaries are ready to take action, and I for one would not call them criminals. In that I guess I disagree that “perpetrators are always maga”.

      Always throwing protesters in with criminals is another thing that really sucks about this rhetoric.
