The following article, Pam Bondi is Running Out of Room, was first published on The Black Sphere.

There is a peculiar sound Washington makes when it thinks nobody is listening. It is the soft hum of immunity. Not innocence.

Immunity. The belief that power, once acquired, becomes self-justifying, self-cleaning, and self-forgiving. For years, that hum drowned out everything else. Laws. Evidence. Common sense. Even gravity took notes.

So when Attorney General Pam Bondi suggests that the Department of Justice is no longer treating Obama and Biden era abuses as “isolated incidents” but as a coordinated conspiracy, the question is not whether crime occurred. The question is whether the spell has finally been broken.

Because never in the history of the Republic has the federal government committed so much crime so openly while insisting nothing happened.

Barack Obama famously declared his administration scandal-free, which is a statement that only makes sense if one defines “scandal” as something that requires consequences. By that definition, yes, nothing happened. A toddler can also claim a spotless childhood if nobody checks the diapers.

Yet even Obama’s record setting opacity now looks quaint compared to what followed. Joe Biden did not merely preside over corruption. He normalized it. Institutionalized it. He gave it a parking pass and a press secretary. Under Biden, the federal government did not just bend the law. It treated the law like a suggestion box.

Which is why Bondi’s comments matter. Not because they promise arrests tomorrow. But because they suggest the era of selective blindness may be ending.

Let’s ground this in what has actually been said and sourced, before the laughter sharpens into something more surgical.

According to reporting summarized here, Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed that the Department of Justice is treating alleged abuses of federal authority during the Obama and Biden administrations as part of a broad conspiracy. She indicated that 2026 could be a turning point, directing U.S. attorneys and federal agents to examine government weaponization going back roughly a decade rather than as disconnected events.

Bondi described this period as a “ten-year stain on the country” and framed the inquiry as necessary to repair institutional damage caused by abuse of power. She did not, however, publicly name defendants, grand juries, or specific filings, leaving open the obvious question: when does rhetoric become action?

That restraint has frustrated many Americans. It has also made Bondi an easy target. Critics point to her past relationships within the Republican establishment. RINOs are invoked the way horror movies invoke basements. People worry she will hesitate. Stall. Fold. Smile politely and move on.

I have taken a different view, and yes, that requires patience in a country addicted to instant verdicts. Bondi has been Attorney General for nearly a year. Building cases of this magnitude is not a montage. It is not a two minute clip set to dramatic music. It is a grind. Especially when the accused spent years shredding records, laundering narratives, and staffing agencies with loyalists who confuse loyalty with law.

Consider what we now know that we did not in real time.

We know the FBI ran interference operations that resembled domestic counterintelligence against political opponents. We know intelligence agencies laundered false narratives through compliant media. We know prosecutors were selected not for their restraint but for their obedience. We know entire investigations were launched not to discover truth but to create headlines.

And then there are the burn bags.

Bondi’s team reportedly uncovered burn bags left behind by James Comey’s FBI. Burn bags are not stationery. They are not casual filing systems. They are used when someone does not want a record to exist. What was found inside them, if properly authenticated and presented, will not merely embarrass Comey. It will contextualize him. And context is lethal to reputations built on press releases.

Jack Smith, meanwhile, finds himself staring at a horizon that looks less like vindication and more like exposure. The man hired to prosecute Donald Trump may yet become a footnote in a case about prosecutorial abuse. That is not irony. That is symmetry.

Critics say Bondi had a rough 2025. I would argue she had a quiet one.

Quiet is what prosecutors prefer when assembling cases that do not collapse on appeal. Loud prosecutors end up on cable news. Quiet ones end up in courtrooms.

Meanwhile, Democrats have not exactly helped themselves.

Minnesota alone has become a case study in what happens when ideological laxity meets administrative sloppiness. The fraud surrounding welfare programs, childcare facilities, and medical services linked to Somali networks was not subtle. It was brazen. It was audacious. It was the kind of fraud that assumes nobody is watching because nobody ever does.

Until suddenly they are.

The fallout has already begun. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s decision not to seek a third term was reported everywhere. What was also reported, quietly but consistently, was why. When the media stops protecting exits, it is because they see the fire spreading.

And Minnesota is not an outlier. It is a preview.

What happens when investigators follow the money in other states? What happens when Medicaid fraud, SNAP abuse, and nonprofit laundering stop being treated as community sensitivities and start being treated as crimes? What happens when the Justice Department remembers it has jurisdiction everywhere, not just where MSNBC approves?

Put it all together and Democrats have delivered Team Trump a gift-wrapped crime package. Not manufactured. Not exaggerated. Documented. Auditable. Traceable.

This is where the stand-up metaphor becomes less joke and more diagnosis.

Democrats spent years insisting there was no crime while tripping over evidence like a slapstick routine. From COVID falsehoods to election irregularities, from intelligence manipulation to prosecutorial targeting, the sheer volume of misconduct defies disbelief. Even an incompetent prosecutor would have difficulty missing it. At this point, you would have to actively dodge evidence to avoid charges.

Which brings us back to Pam Bondi.

Is she slow, or is she methodical? Is she hesitant, or is she patient? History will decide that distinction. But here is what matters now: she has publicly reframed the narrative. These were not isolated errors. They were coordinated abuses. That single shift changes everything.

Because conspiracies are prosecuted differently than mistakes.

They allow patterns. Timelines. Shared intent. They transform a pile of unrelated embarrassments into a coherent criminal theory. And once that theory is filed, it does not matter how many op-eds object. Courts deal in records, not vibes.

Watch the media. That is the tell.

When the press can no longer ignore crimes, the defense collapses. That moment has already arrived in Minnesota. It will arrive elsewhere. And when it does, the names will no longer be abstract. Ilhan Omar. Keith Ellison. Others yet unnamed. The can of worms is not being opened. It is already open. The lid was just decorative.

Bondi does not need to rush. She needs to strike decisively. When action comes, it will not be incremental. It will be comprehensive. Blitzkrieg is the correct word. Not because of speed, but because of coordination.

So hang in there, America. Justice does not arrive on schedule. It arrives when preparation meets opportunity. 2026 is shaping up to be that intersection.

Trump did not return to office to negotiate with corruption. He returned to end it. And when the sirens finally sound, they will not be mistaken for applause.
