If she broke any state laws anywhere, that won't help her. Presidential pardons don't affect state crimes, and state pardons don't affect federal crimes. It is the closest thing to a check and balance on the power.

It's not like state laws couldn't pertain to Pam Bondi, but the dominant framing around her is going to be federal officer exercising her powers, rightly or wrongly, over a federal office and while under the direction of the president.

> Presidential pardons don't affect state crimes What good has this done in any of the hundreds of scumbag drug and human trafficker cases that have been let free via Presidential pardons?! Did a State come step in afterwards, in any, ever?
