Ask Jordan: Could Pam Bondi or Lindsey Halligan be disbarred for bringing Trump’s retribution?

Florida's Pam Bondi and Lindsey Halligan may face scrutiny over their handling of high-profile Trump-related cases, but disbarment seems unlikely for now.

The Florida Bar can't investigate or discipline sitting officers appointed under the U.S. Constitution while they're in office, including Bondi. A recent Supreme Court decision rejected a bid to force the bar to look into her, leaving open the possibility of investigating after she leaves the DOJ. However, it's unclear if this disciplinary door will automatically swing open when she returns to civilian life.

Halligan, who led the U.S. attorney's office for the Eastern District of Virginia and secured indictments against two high-profile Trump critics, may be subject to Florida state rules. Her actions have raised concerns over her handling of cases, particularly as they seem to defy the objections of career prosecutors. One rule that might apply to Halligan is the requirement to refrain from prosecuting a charge if she knows it lacks probable cause.

While proving lack of probable cause is an almost impossible standard for Halligan, another rule requiring timely disclosure of evidence could be more practically provable. Whether she has violated this rule or will do so in future cases is unclear, as they are still in their infancy. It remains to be seen whether ethics rules will play a role in her disciplinary fate.

Both Bondi and Halligan have filed high-profile cases against Trump's enemies, sparking concerns over the impartiality of justice in the current administration.
 
I'm seeing this thread start to reheat 🔥 from 2020 and I gotta say, it's still super concerning 💡. These women, especially Bondi, are being scrutinized for their handling of Trump-related cases, but disbarment seems way off right now 🙅‍♀️. It's like they're stuck in this "I'm a government official" limbo, where they can't be investigated by the Florida Bar while they're still in office 🕰️.

Meanwhile, Halligan's actions are raising some red flags 🚨. I mean, we all know she led that investigation against those Trump critics, but it seems like some of her career prosecutors were totally opposed to it 👥. Did she really disregard their concerns or was she just doing what the DOJ told her to do? 🤔

One thing for sure is that if these ladies are going to face any real consequences, they need to get out of this government bubble and answer to some state-level ethics rules 📜. Until then, it's all just speculation 🔮. And honestly, I'm still not convinced we'll see any real accountability come from them 💁‍♀️.
 
I'm like totally worried about these two ladies! 🤔 Pam Bondi and Lindsey Halligan are handling some super sensitive Trump-related cases, but I don't think they'll face any real consequences for a while. I mean, since they're still serving, the Florida Bar can't touch them. But once they leave the DOJ, watch out! 🕰️ It's like, they might finally get in trouble, and it's about time, if you ask me. The questions are, though: will Lindsey Halligan really follow the rules, or is she gonna keep pushing boundaries? And what about all those cases against Trump's enemies... is justice just a word now? 🤷‍♀️ It's like, we need to know who's really in charge around here! 👀
 
Ugh, these lawyers are so dodgy! 🙄 I mean, Pam Bondi is basically untouchable because she's still in office, which is super concerning. She's been handling some pretty high-profile Trump cases and it looks like she might have gotten away with some questionable behavior. And Lindsey Halligan? Same thing - she's got a history of pushing charges that seem really unlikely to stick, which is just weird.

I'm not saying they're definitely going down, but it's clear that someone needs to take a closer look at their methods. The rules are there for a reason and if these ladies have broken them, then they need to face the consequences. It's all about accountability, you know? 💯
 
idk how fair it'll be to investigate them after they're done with their jobs... i mean, can we really expect them to act like your average joe prosecutor? 🤔 the whole point is they were handpicked for a reason, and that's politics. still gotta keep an eye on 'em tho, cant have ppl thinkin justice is just a fancy word for "winning".
 
🙄 So now that we've got our two superheroes, Pam and Lindsey, saving the day from Trump's critics, let's talk about ethics... 🤔 I mean, who needs rules when you're on a high-profile case, right? It's not like it's a big deal to prosecute someone without probable cause or disclose evidence in a timely manner... 🙃 At least they're doing something, even if it is for the wrong side of the coin. And hey, if they get away with it, we can all just say "oh well" and move on from it. 😒 The real question is, when are we going to start taking ethics seriously? 💁‍♀️ Not holding my breath... 👀
 
I don't think it's fair to totally trash Pam Bondi & Lindsey Halligan just 'cause they went after some Trump critics... 🤔 I get that there are some weirdo allegations flying around but let's give 'em a break, right? Like, disbarment is one thing but it's not like they're gonna be held accountable in the court of public opinion or something. And yeah, maybe Bondi didn't do her due diligence on some Trump cases, but that doesn't mean she's got blood on her hands... 😒 I also think we should consider why these women are being scrutinized so harshly – what's the real motive here? Is it really just about holding them accountable for their actions or is there something else going on? 🤷‍♀️
 
can u believe these two ladies think they're above the law 🙄? Lindsey Halligan is already getting roasted for how she handled those indictments, like what if she didn't have a career prosecutor to tell her no? and Pam Bondi's still out there making waves with Trump, it's like she's trying to make a name for herself as some kinda Trump sycophant 🤷‍♀️. i think the bar is gonna keep an eye on them, but disbarment? that seems way too easy 😂. halligan's gonna be the one who has to worry about those ethics rules, and honestly, it's only a matter of time before she gets caught in her own web of deceit 🕸️.
 
I feel like this is a really tough spot for both Pam Bondi and Lindsey Halligan. They're being held to a super high standard by the public and the media, and it's hard not to wonder if they're truly doing what's best for justice or if there's some other motivation at play 🤔. It's like they're walking on eggshells, waiting to see if their actions will be scrutinized by the Bar. I hope that when they eventually leave office, there will be a way to investigate and hold them accountable for their actions. But it's also really frustrating because we need people in positions of power to make tough decisions without being second-guessed all the time 🤷‍♀️.
 
omg what's going on with these 2?? 🤯 so pam bondi & lindsey halligan are getting roasted for their handling of trump-related cases but i think disbarment is probs not gonna happen anytime soon 🙅‍♀️ like, florida bar can't touch them cuz they're in office and it's all about the constitution stuff 🤔 but it's still super shady how they're playing with the system... halligan's actions are giving me major concerns tho - did she really think she could just ignore career prosecutors?! 💁‍♀️ and now we gotta wait & see if ethics rules will come into play for her... fingers crossed she gets called out 🤞
 
man I'm just so concerned about these two ladies... Pam Bondi and Lindsey Halligan are like super powerful prosecutors but it feels like they're being used to target people who are just speaking truth to power you know? Like what's really going on here is that they're trying to silence critics of Trump's admin and it's not right at all

and I gotta wonder if the law will catch up with them eventually... I mean, there's this one rule about refraining from prosecuting a charge if you don't have probable cause but like who has time for that? Halligan is already getting accused of trying to railroad some people and it's just not right

I'm all about justice being served but when people in power try to use their positions to silence others that's just not how we're supposed to work...
 
I'm so worried about these two ladies... they're dealing with some serious heat for taking on Trump and his crew. As a justice system, it should be all about fairness and equality, but it feels like they're getting more scrutiny than most politicians do.

It's not right that Pam Bondi can't get investigated while she's still serving, especially since she was appointed under the US Constitution 🤔. And Lindsey Halligan's actions are raising some serious eyebrows too... I mean, who prosecutes someone without probable cause? 😬 It's like they're trying to play both sides.

I just hope that if they do get disciplined, it's not because of politics and bias, but because they broke the rules or did something wrong 💔. We need our justice system to be fair and honest, even for those who are unpopular or disagree with the president. 💕
 
I'm a bit worried about these ladies and how they're handling some super sensitive cases 🤕💔 I mean, it's one thing to prosecute someone who's guilty, but another thing entirely to go after people just because you don't like them 😒👎 As a fan of the rule of law, it's hard not to wonder if their actions are gonna impact the fairness of our justice system 🤔👀 Let's keep an eye on this and hope that whatever happens next is all about finding the truth and doing what's right 💯
 
I mean, what's up with these Florida Bar people? Can't they just do their job or something 🤔? I'm reading that Pam Bondi is basically untouchable because she's still in office... but then you see Lindsey Halligan and think, "Wait a minute, isn't the rule about not prosecuting charges without probable cause, like, super clear?" 💡 And then again, maybe it's just me, but I'm kinda thinking that if Bondi leaves DOJ, they'll actually look into her, right? 🤷‍♀️

Ugh, I don't know, maybe I'm just getting my wires crossed... the thing is, both of these ladies have been making waves with their Trump cases and it's like, "Uh, shouldn't justice be about following rules or something?" 🙄 Halligan's handling of cases has some people concerned, but at the same time, I don't know if anyone can even prove that she broke any laws... *sigh* 🤷‍♂️ What do you guys think? Shouldn't these lawyers just be held to a higher standard or what? 🤔
 
I'm getting frustrated with these officials... 🙄 They're supposed to uphold the law, but it seems like they're more interested in helping their buddies than doing what's right. I mean, a Supreme Court decision said there's nothing they can do while they're still in office? What kind of power is that? It's like they're above the law or something.

And now Halligan's under scrutiny because she's been prosecuting people who crossed Trump? That's not impartiality, that's just politics. I'm not saying she did anything wrong... yet. But if she does, she should be held accountable. We can't have officials just picking and choosing who to prosecute based on their personal feelings or allegiances.

It's like they think the law is flexible now? Newsflash: it's not. If you break the law, there will be consequences. And these officials need to be held to a higher standard because of the power they hold. We can't just let them get away with this... 😤
 
I'm seeing this news and I just wanna say that the whole situation is super messy 😩. Both Pam Bondi and Lindsey Halligan are doing some shady stuff with their Trump-related cases and now they're both gonna be under a microscope. But, can you believe that the Florida Bar can't even touch them while they're still in office? It's like they're above the law... or something! 💁‍♀️ I'm keeping an eye on this one, for sure. The more I read about it, the more I think there should be some serious consequences for these two. They're basically getting away with trying to politicize justice and it just isn't right 🚫.
