Doesn't matter to her. She'll land a lucrative gig on one of the right wing propaganda networks, not go back to practicing law.
Now if she faces criminal and civil penalties beyond that disbarment, that's a different story. Especially at the state level.
I feel like it would have to be state level or nothing right? I can't imagine she won't get pardoned for anything and everything on the federal level unless she crosses Trump or something. She bent over backwards kissing his ass more than anyone. I gotta imagine she has a pardon waiting for her.
Yeah, that's my line of thought as well.
She's 60 and rich; why would she even want to go back to work? But then I don't understand why anyone with financial freedom would choose to give up even more of their life for money they don't need.
One of the things I'll never understand is the desire for rich people to keep working. To keep accumulating more wealth.
If I had a few million £ in the bank I'd retire faster than you can say 1 percent.
Rich people hoard money without any regards for morals or ethics, and they certainly don't stop to ponder the purpose of their wealth. That's just their drug.
You're not addicted. That's why you're not rich.
It's also why a lot of people who win the lottery end up broke within a year: they don't have the mental illness of greed necessary to stay rich.

I'm with you until you get to the lottery part. Your description implies that those lottery winners who don't go bankrupt are somehow worse than the ones who do go bankrupt, which doesn't make any sense.
They lose their money because they can't control their spending, not because they lack the mental illness of money addiction.
What a strange perspective you've given. It makes me suspect that you have a personal motive for thinking that way.
She's 60?! She must be the first Republican who actually looks good for her age.
She just paid more for her plastic surgery.
Born 1965. Yeah I guess good skin care and avoids sun with no bimbofication. You can see the age in closer photos. At a distance you'd think younger.
Should be...Shall be...won't...
Why so sure? Giuliani was. Chesboro was. Jenna Ellis had her license suspended.
Karma is a bitch...
But boy! it feels good for the rest of us.
It has to happen first.
I'm so fucking sick of these "Asshole can have consequences..." articles and nothing happens.
Sorry, that's the best feel-good I could find for today. One makes do with what one finds when the sumbitches are basically above the law that applies to the rest of us.
Not your fault at all! Keep sharing everything you can.
I'm just sick of this "system".
Yes, exactly. Unfortunately, I think it’s highly unlikely that the same corrupt legal system - which this woman has quite clearly demonstrated protects the most serious criminals instead of prosecuting them - will suddenly start delivering justice. I don’t think anything will change unless the citizens themselves force through the massive reforms that are necessary.
At present, it is almost a mockery to call the US a constitutional state, because the legal system is so obviously corrupt that it simply no longer fulfills its purpose, as the regime illustrates very impressively on a daily basis.
According to reports Trump told her in the limo "It's time."
I like to think then as a tear slid down her cheek he reached forward and grabbed her by the pussy giving it a little honk honk as the limo pulled up to the Supreme Court.
Maybe there should be some amount of accountability for these goons BEFORE their boss has consumed their usefulness and tossed them aside?
We're talking about the United States of America here. Gotta set your expectations appropriately.
Do that first just for the shame, and then sentence her to death. Anybody that helped or assisted him can get in line with her.
Other child rapists can get in line next. We shouldn't jail these people, we should slaughter them. And everyone that helps them, too. Even one time offenders.
But at the VERY least the poster children for making an industry of it.
I'd vote for training the new executioners to do it for these cases, so they make the mistakes you hear about with botched executions. For these offenders I consider that a feature, not a bug. They should all SUFFER as they die. And I cannot capitalize it hard enough. They should have the most pain it is possible to have, and I'm not sorry for wanting that.
But if public distaste is too much than those pod things can be used instead.
I hear what you're saying and feel where you're coming from. Executing them, even botched and painfully, is not their worst fate. Their worst fate would be all assets and bank accounts forfeited (if they can take the money in your pocket by asset forfeiture they sure as hell can seize billions in ill gotten gains), sentenced to jail with access to tv and internet but wih no means to post or otherwise be heard. No phones, text, email, nothing. Cannot post to social media. Read but no write access.
Rotting away for decades watching the world go by without them. Indifferent to their absence or even celebrating it. That would drive them mad.
She shouldn't have held any position at the bar in the first place.
She is licensed in Florida. The probability the Florida bar will kick her out is about as high as that Trump was completely exonerated by the Epstein files.
I think they will. Trump cut her loose: she's a MAGA pariah now. This is the one chance the bar review committee has to pretend they still have integrity without pissing off the orange utan and his cult followers.
The dismissal tweet sounded cheerful enough though. She wasn't given the Very Prestigious Command of the Supreme Council of the Board of Peace, for sure, but she was wished well and told she did a good job and she was the Best Boy, that's gotta count for something!
she was wished well and told she did a good job
She was wished well in a mafia don's kiss kind of way.
It's just the particular style of the Trump mafia family.
That’s probably because of all the kompromat she knows. Trump doesn’t want to piss her off too much if he can help it. It’s why he offered her a judgeship.
Oof... Judge Cannon is going to be so pissed if Trump promotes Bondi to the Supreme Court over her!
The Florida Bar won't even conduct an investigation into her conduct while holding feferal office. That's an actual rule. So to get Pam disbarred will take a felony conviction. But there are many states to do that. And the DOJ, after Trump. These people will face justice.
Wait, she’s 60? I had no idea. Honestly looks much younger.
I've always thought that faces like hers that radiate contempt and hatred seem to be forever frozen in their unpleasant pose.
People who smile and have normal human expressions tend to age faster, simply because their faces move all the time.
Also, of course, plastic surgery...
Counter-point: Karoline Leavitt looks at least 20 years older than she is.
No one on this planet can convince me that she’s not been a 2 pack a day smoker since she was 10. It’s the only thing that makes sense
I couldn't find a picture of her smoking, but the lines radiating from her lips is indicative of smoking.
Find a Pic where her hands can be seen. Hands are one of the few areas where surgery isn't practical, and for some reason they age a lot more in women than men's.
Do people really think that was a punishment for her? It was probably her idea to avoid a hearing...
"Warns." Ha! haha.
Bondi went in knowing what she did and knowing that it was wrong and knowing that her defence cannot be that her boss really wanted her to do it.
WTF wasn't she disbarred while in office?
Florida Bar has a binding rule that says they won’t hold disciplinary hearings for any person confirmed by the US senate.
Not enough.
awww. poor bubba. Maybe she shouldn't have allied herself with a piece of shit. Cry me a fucking river.
