'Completely lawless': Why this congresswoman wants Pam Bondi impeached
USA TODAY
From the Epstein files to the integrity of prosecutions, Democratic Congresswoman Summer Lee says Attorney General Pam Bondi is damaging the DOJ.
A sophomore in Congress watched with growing concern as the Justice Department fired a top ethics official, ousted investigators of the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, and opened investigations into the president's political opponents.
As the transformations at the DOJ mounted, she concluded the nation's top law enforcement official wasn't fit to serve.
"This is an administration that is out of control and that is completely lawless," Rep. Summer Lee, D–Pennsylvania, told USA TODAY March 18, as she explained her decision to introduce articles of impeachment the day before against Attorney General Pam Bondi.
Lee's impeachment measure, drafted with the help of anti-corruption nonprofit group Free Speech for People, points to investigations and prosecutions that she says demonstrate the Justice Department is being politicized. Those include charges brought at the president's urging against some of his longtime critics, former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
A judge dismissed the charges in November.
