Attorney General Pam Bondi fired a Justice Department staffer seen flipping off National Guard troops in Washington, D.C.

Bondi announced the staffing change in a Friday post on X. The former employee, Elizabeth Baxter, was caught by a Justice Department security camera flipping off National Guard troops and telling them to “f*** off,” according to the New York Post.

“Today, I took action to terminate a DOJ employee for inappropriate conduct towards National Guard service members in DC. @TheJusticeDept remains committed to defending President Trump’s agenda and fighting to make America safe again,” Bondi posted. “If you oppose our mission and disrespect law enforcement — you will NO LONGER work at DOJ.”

Baxter bragged about her confrontation with the National Guard troops to a security guard at the Department of Justice. On August 18, Baxter told a security guard that she had made the rude gesture to a National Guardsman at the Metro Center Metro Stop. A week later on August 25, she spoke to the security guard again about her feelings against the National Guard, according to the Post.

Baxter worked in the “4CON” building of the Justice Department – the same building that former Justice Department paralegal Sean Charles Dunn worked in. Dunn was fired from the department after allegedly throwing a Subway sandwich at a Customs and Border Patrol officer.

Dunn was fired and charged earlier this month over the incident. In a video captured by a bystander, the 37-year-old former Justice Department employee allegedly shouted at federal agents, calling them “fascists” and yelling “f*** you.”

Dunn then began to walk away from the officers before stopping, approaching the federal agents, and allegedly throwing his sandwich at an officer before trying to run away.

On Wednesday, a grand jury refused to charge Dunn with felony assault over the sandwich toss. Federal prosecutors have since charged him again with a misdemeanor.

Bondi said earlier this month that Dunn had been fired over the incident.

“This is an example of the Deep State we have been up against for seven months as we work to refocus DOJ,” Bondi said in a post on X at the time. “You will NOT work in this administration while disrespecting our government and law enforcement.”
