Thought of your comment as team Trump was touting criminal charges for noncompliant FEDs. I'm not sure what your tit for tat comment was specifically about, the general retribution campaign? my comment about disbarment?
Either way, is it tit for tat when one party has abused DoJ to molest their political foe and the other is using it closer to letter of law to root out actual corruption? Is it tit for tat because US legal code obfuscates justice here?
I think in many cases the bad actors of Biden admin need more consequences. Losing your ability to earn money vs locked up in jail is not equivalent at all
it was petty tit for tat when Trump canceled Biden's security clearance like Biden did to him, and doesn't have any impact beyond posturing. It was functional administration when Trump kicked out bureaucrats and prosecutors who opposed his agenda and would stand against it
I'm not sure which case you're referring to with the criminal charges. His DoJ is threatening criminal sanction against new york
state officials who are trying to stop immigration enforcement, which is still pretty firmly in the functional-not-petty territory since its clearly an attempt to stop their obstruction and carry out policy, rather than personal vendetta. He's also threatening criminal charges against federal officials who leaked immigration raids but that's just straight up sabotage, again nothing personal or petty, he doesn't even know who did it.
An example of petty enforcement would be if Trump sent his DoJ on a fishing expedition to find something illegal in Hillary Clinton's past and drum it up with some legal contrivance to charge her, and it had nothing to do with policy. Because that's what they did to him
