A man throws a sandwich at a federal law enforcement officer and is charged with a felony.
"IF you touch any law enforcement officer, we will come after you,” Attorney General Bondi wrote. “I just learned that this defendant worked at the Department of Justice — NO LONGER. Not only is he FIRED, he has been charged with a felony.”
Hmmm... Then there was an insurrection at the U.S. Capitol where the convicted felons were pardoned by the current president for which AG Bondi works. It's ok to actually harm people including federal law enforcement officers, threaten and chase U.S. Representatives and Senators, threaten and chase the Vice President of the United? But, they really want to punish a sandwich thrower?
Not that I condone throwing sandwiches at anyone.
