Can you add this to the database about Pam Bondi?

Bondi's memo referenced recent directives from President Trump calling for Justice Department investigations into former officials from his first term. Unlike past administrations, which typically avoid demanding specific investigations, Bondi's memo named former cybersecurity official Christopher Krebs and alluded to former Homeland Security official Miles Taylor. It also mentioned a news story about Don Caldwell, an adviser to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who was suspended amid a leak inquiry.

Here is more that relates to that date regarding Pam Bondi and the memo regarding journalists.

Bondi's directive marks a sharp retreat from the "overly broad" protections implemented by Attorney General Merrick Garland in 2021. Garland's policies followed revelations that prosecutors had secretly obtained phone and email records of reporters from major outlets, including The Washington Post and The New York Times. While Garland's rules limited government access to journalists' information, they still allowed investigators to gather records from government officials suspected of leaks.

Despite the rollback, Bondi emphasized that the Justice Department's new stance would not eliminate all safeguards for journalists.

Here is more to add to the database about Pam Bondi and Mangione.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi earlier this month announced that the Justice Department would seek the death penalty for Mangione. Thursday's court filing by the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's office formalizes prosecutors' intent to impose the death penalty.

Mangione's lawyers have said Bondi's April 1 announcement was "unapologetically political" and breached government protocols for death penalty decisions.
