Most corrupt government in US history and I can’t think of any previous administration that even comes close
"The Biden Justice Department filed a criminal complaint against Carolina Amesty, a former Republican lawmaker, in mid-January -- just days before President Donald Trump took office. Amesty faced two counts of theft of government property related to COVID relief fraud and, if convicted, faced a maximum penalty of up to 20 years in prison.
But on Wednesday morning, Brad Bondi claimed in court papers that "counsel for Ms. Amesty learned [last month] that the government had ceased its criminal investigation ... and withdrew its outstanding subpoenas.
...
The dropping of charges Wednesday was not the first legal victory Brad Bondi has scored during the Trump administration. He previously represented Trevor Milton, the disgraced Nikola founder who was sentenced to four years in prison for lying about the viability of his electric vehicle technology; Milton secured a pardon from President Trump in March."

A woman accused of fraud hired the AG's brother as her lawyer. Months later, DOJ dropped charges
Prosecutors have moved to dismiss charges against a woman accused of fraud who was being represented in court by the brother of Attorney General Pam Bondi.
