DOJ Paralegal Fired by Pam Bondi for Allegedly Flipping Off National Guard
“This DOJ remains committed to defending President Trump’s agenda and fighting to make America safe again. If you oppose our mission and disrespect law enforcement — you will NO LONGER work at DOJ.”
The Resistance 2.0 movement among federal employees in Washington, D.C. is alive and well, and it would appear that the ones who are employed by the Department of Justice can no longer keep their Trump Derangement Syndrome tendencies under wraps.
For instance, there was Sean Charles Dunn, who on August 10th allegedly taunted and shouted expletives at U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents as they stood on a street corner in D.C., much in the same way we’ve seen professional woketivists get in the faces of law enforcement during “peaceful protests.” Dunn then escalated matters by allegedly throwing a Subway “submarine-style sandwich” at one of the agents.
Dunn, who at the time worked for the Department of Justice’s Office of International Affairs, was arrested after trying to run away and was charged with felony assault. He was fired from the DOJ shortly thereafter.
“You will NOT work in this administration while disrespecting our government and law enforcement,” Bondi wrote after the incident.
The DOJ, however, was unable to secure a felony indictment from a D.C. grand jury, so Dunn has now been charged with misdemeanor assault, which could carry up to a year in jail.
Like the Virginia cyclist who infamously flipped off President Donald Trump’s motorcade back in 2017, Dunn has since been lionized in the mainstream press and has developed a cult-like following in the D.C. area since his arrest:

In another incident, first reported on Friday by the NY Post, a second DOJ employee has also been fired, this time over allegedly flipping the bird at the National Guard in D.C. and bragging about it to a security guard in the DOJ building she worked in (which incidentally was the same one where Dunn worked):
Attorney General Pam Bondi fired another Department of Justice paralegal Friday — after the environmental division employee flipped off a National Guard member on her way to work.
[…]
[Elizabeth] Baxter arrived for work at the DOJ’s “4CON” building in the NoMa district of Washington, DC, at 8.21 a.m. on Aug. 18, and boasted to a DOJ security guard that she had just made the obscene gesture to a guardsman at Metro Center Metro Stop and said, “F–k the National Guard,” according to Bondi.
At 12:18 p.m. the same day, Baxter was observed on DOJ security cameras putting up her middle finger toward the National Guard and saying, “F–k you!”
One week later, on Aug. 25, Baxter arrived at work and again told the DOJ security guard that she hated the National Guard and told them to “F–k off!”
Bondi told the Post that “This DOJ remains committed to defending President Trump’s agenda and fighting to make America safe again. If you oppose our mission and disrespect law enforcement — you will NO LONGER work at DOJ.”

Good grief. Yet another liberal white woman behaving badly. They truly are going to be the downfall of society as we know it in America if left to their own devices.

Flipping off is free speech. I’m not sure how respect or disrespect is supposed to figure in, but nobody has asked for a clarification of her views as far as I can tell. She’s a paralegal so they might be based on rule of law.
It is free speech. But you don’t get to work for the USA if you have anti-USA opinions.
So is your position that govt workers can say anything and keep their jobs?
Actually that generally is true. A government employee can’t be fired for simply expressing an opinion that the government finds repugnant. For instance, a police department can’t fire an employee for advocating the president’s assassination.
But there are significant differences between that and what this person did. It’s not the opinion that she was fired for, but the disrespect she publicly showed, and then bragged about. Also, she was an employee of the same government as the National Guardsman she insulted. I wonder whether a police department can fire someone who advocates the assassination of that same department’s police commissioner, or of its officers, even in private. .
Tell me you’ve never held a job without saying the words.
Note:

High on the list of things not to do as a reasonable and rational employee is publicly disparaging or publicly embarrassing your employer.
They don’t have the right to prevent you from doing it but they don’t have to employ you.
There are still expected levels of professionalism from DoJ staff who should be leading by example.
Secondly, he can have his freedom of speech and also have consequences for his behaviour.
Yet we have laws like the Hatch Act that limit the speech of government employees.
No, we don’t. Government employees are free to engage in partisan politics, on their own time, with their own resources, and on private premises. They just can’t do it on the job.

Displaying a political bumper sticker or banner in one’s workspace is a violation of federal law, but that doesn’t mean federal employees are barred from all political activities, the Defense Logistics Agency’s ethics program manager said.
“There’s actually a lot that people can do although there are some restrictions on what’s acceptable and where those things can take place,” Associate General Counsel Maria Delimata said.
The bumper sticker not allowed in federal workspaces, for example, can be displayed on a personal vehicle parked in a government parking lot – with a caveat: Only one sticker is allowed per vehicle.

If you work in LE, just about any importune conduct can get you canned. This applies to the civilian workers and not just the commissioned LEOs. Bad behavior reflects badly on the agency. Bye-bye!
In other times, it would seem like an excessive punishment for a small infraction. These are not other times.
So much insanity.
“which you will agree is not at all what the sandwich-throwing incident actually looked like.”
Anyone familiar with Banksy’s iconic “Flower Thrower” mural will immediately recognize this as a
direct ripoffhomage.Yeah, and the ‘dude’ threw the sandwich like a complete pansy.
The ran like a little bitch
Hence the comparison to the Flower Thrower.
