      Actually, I bet this saves her from any consequences. She wasn’t supposed to have the job in there first place, so all of her unforced errors don’t matter.

      They should, but she has the magic ® after her name. So it’s just “Oopsies!”, and then she can go on with her day.

        If she knew she wasn’t legally appointed, and did the job anyway, that’d be a major ethics violation.

        So are the illegal jury instructions, the tampering with the indictment, the lying to the trial judge (Bondi did that too), and probably a few more.
