A bombshell report from The New York Times suggests that despite her title, Attorney General Pam Bondi is hardly running the show at the Department of Justice.
According to the Times, Bondi “sees her role as that of a surrogate, a faithful executor and high-volume messenger, compelled to cede ground to empowered players in the West Wing.”
“The decisions are being made at the White House, and then they’re being pushed down to the Department of Justice, which is very, very atypical,” observed DOJ alum Elizabeth Oyer. “It feels like she is just performing a part. She is like an actor, in a way.”
I think you’re replying to the wrong comment lol
Unlike the person I replied to, I knew that the NYT is called The Gray Lady already, though admittedly I didn’t know WHY, so I looked that up.
I’m 42 and would put good money on most other people familiar with the nickname being a generation or two older than me, making it a pretty niche reference to casually expect the wider readership to understand without having to stop reading to look it up…
