Trump's DOJ Tries to BLOCK States From Investigating DOJ Misconduct! - Glenn Kirschner [View all]
To be an attorney at the Department of Justice, you have to have a license to practice law issued by one of the 50 states or the District of Columbia.
Against this backdrop, let's turn to the new reporting: Pam Bondi is trying to get rid of all of the ethical guardrails at the Department of Justice. First, she fired the head DOJ ethics attorney. Then she fired the head of the Office of Professional Responsibility - OPR - the organization that investigates allegations of misconduct by DOJ attorneys.
Now Bondi is trying to violate states rights by seeking to prohibit state bar ethics offices from investigating alleged attorney misconduct of attorneys who hold law licenses their state.
But here's the good news: there's an opportunity for we the people to weigh in, make our voices heard, and oppose this latest effort by Bondi to destroy ethical guardrails at the Department of Justice.
See the link below for how you can weigh in and register your opposition.
I just sat down with former pardon attorney Liz Oyer to discuss this latest attempt by Bondi to destroy ethical guardrails at the DOJ. - Glenn Kirschner - 03.05/2026.
