Bondi fires Justice Department employee for gesturing at National Guard

Elizabeth Baxter was terminated after multiple incidents of disrespect toward National Guard members during a federal crime reduction deployment, reflecting DOJ's zero-tolerance policy, officials said.

  • Attorney General Pam Bondi fired Elizabeth Baxter for flipping off National Guard members on August 18, 2025, and making inappropriate comments towards them.
  • Baxter was observed multiple times on security cameras making obscene gestures and using profane language toward National Guard troops.
  • This firing is part of an effort to restore accountability within the DOJ following recent misconduct involving other staff members.
  • Bondi stated that disrespecting law enforcement would lead to termination from the DOJ as part of a commitment to support law enforcement under President Trump's federal initiatives.
