The housecleaning at the Justice Department has now claimed the job of the attorney in charge of advising disgraced former President Joe Biden on pardons as the Trump administration looks to restore public faith in federal law enforcement that was politicized by the prior regime.
Liz Oyer was given the ax on Friday, hours after new Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche was confirmed, ending the government career of a woman who would have had a big say in the flurry of controversial pardons and commutations doled out by Biden who granted clemency to criminals, thugs and murderers on his way out the door.
JUST IN: HOURS into his tenure as Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche has already begun clearing house
He just FIRED the DOJ’s Pardon Attorney, hired by Biden.
And more firings are coming.
Blanche is going to be a HUGE star in the DOJ, as he was Trump’s personal attorney… pic.twitter.com/KOrqTwUxw1

Oyer, who held the career DOJ position since 2022, was fired “effective immediately,” according to a letter from Blanche that she shared on her LinkedIn account.

“I’m sad to share that I was fired today from the job I have poured my heart and soul into for the last three years. I am so proud of the team we built in the Office of the Pardon Attorney, who will carry on our important work. I’m very grateful for the many extraordinary people I’ve had the opportunity to connect with on this journey. Thank you for your partnership, your support, and your belief in second chances,” she wrote.
X users reacted to the “wrecking ball” Blanche’s initial moves and expressed hope that there is more to come.
Blanche is a wrecking ball—day one as Deputy AG and he’s already axing Biden’s pardon puppet. More heads will roll, bet on it. Trump’s trial-hardened pitbull is unleashed in the DOJ, ready to shred the swamp. Buckle up, this badass is about to rewrite justice in blood.

This is massive.
The pardon attorney and her entire office radicalized the office. They intended to make it a functional part of the justice system to pardon mass amounts of criminals.

Blanche brings his Trump trial energy to DOJ, firing the Pardon Attorney right out of the gate. Nice!!

The pardon attorney didn’t even blink when Biden submitted the sweeping pardons for things that have never even been charged let alone adjudicated.
Their job is to pushback or give guidance to POTUS in situations like that.

It is unclear what – if any – role Oyer played in the even more controversial “preemptive” pardons granted by Biden in his final hours. Among those who were effectively immunized for crimes that they hadn’t been convicted of were the malicious actor Liz Cheney and the entire sham J6 committee, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, and retired General Mark A. Milley, a hardcore Trump-hater whom many have accused of committing treasonous acts as the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
“Ms. Oyer is the first former public defender to be appointed Pardon Attorney. She is committed to ensuring the fairness, accessibility, and transparency of the clemency process for the benefit of all stakeholders,” reads Oyer’s DOJ bio which was still up the day after she joined the ranks of the unemployed.
