Ahem. It's the job of the President to appoint DAs - with advice and consent from the Senate.
The President can ignore that rule - but only once (per district) and only for 120 days.
Do you know who appoints DAs after the 120 day mark has passed?
Pam Bondi doesn't. Because it's the judiciary.

Which do you think Bleach Blondi and Krash Patel will use to manipulate the Epstein client list: AI, cut-and-paste or White Out?
Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

After Ghislaine Maxwell lied to Todd Blanche, someone waived her sex offender status and moved her to Club Fed with "OUT" custody - allowing her to work outside the prison walls. 3 months ago, I got her Bureau of Prisons points screen as proof. We still don't know who approved all this.
