Attorney General Pam Bondi was so furious with six federal prosecutors who announced they would resign rather than prosecute the widow of a Minnesota woman killed by an ICE agent that she fired them before they had a chance to give their notice.

    Weren’t these the people earlier this week who supposedly resigned, of which people were complaining about. Now it comes out they were actually fired before they even could…

    The prosecutors announced their intent to resign, and would have done so after using up their allocated PTO. A fairly standard practice in professional environments. Pam Bondi fired them in retaliation for announcing their intent to resign

    She claimed it was because they wanted a tax payer funded vacation, but anyone who understands the basics of unemployment, especially in Minnesota, can tell you she just gave them even more tax payer money (if they want it). Not only will they be entitled to their PTO, but they are now also entitled to unemployment

    Edit: Fixed typo
