    “Bondi is also making a push to deemphasize prosecutions of white-collar crimes, purge diversity programs within the DOJ, reintroduce the federal death penalty, and to root out lawyers who aren’t willing to march in lockstep with Trump ideologically.”

          We can’t acknowledge the whole country was racist in in the 1800s? the country kept black people as slaves. All kinds of industry in the north benefited from the materials produced by slavery even though they didn’t personally own the slaves
