Bondi is still angry about the resignation of six prosecutors. “They want to be part of the resistance? Yeah, bring it on,” Bondi said. “They’re not going to be working for Donald Trump and the DOJ any longer.” That’s correct, by resigning, they are no longer working for Trump or the DOJ.

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.
