I *believe* you can, you just cant operate out of multiple jurisdictions.
That was JackBois ultimate flaw. He kept running back to favorable DC grand juries for stuff going on in Florida.

Maybe there is a way around it, but I can't find it in the act itself.

§1211. Establishment
(a) There is established the Office of Special Counsel, which shall be headed by the Special Counsel. The Office shall have an official seal which shall be judicially noticed. The Office shall have its principal office in the District of Columbia and shall have field offices in other appropriate locations.
(b) The Special Counsel shall be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, for a term of 5 years. The Special Counsel may continue to serve beyond the expiration of the term until a successor is appointed and has qualified, except that the Special Counsel may not continue to serve for more than one year after the date on which the term of the Special Counsel would otherwise expire under this subsection. The Special Counsel shall be an attorney who, by demonstrated ability, background, training, or experience, is especially qualified to carry out the functions of the position. A Special Counsel appointed to fill a vacancy occurring before the end of a term of office of the Special Counsel's predecessor serves for the remainder of the term. The Special Counsel may be removed by the President only for inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office. The Special Counsel may not hold another office or position in the Government of the United States, except as otherwise provided by law or at the direction of the President.

According to that, Trump could appoint someone to serve out the remainder of JackBois term.
If I were Trump, I would let Gaetz serve out JackBois term. Then watch the libs flip out and tell us JackBois was never properly appointed.

RE: President Trump nominates FL Pam Bondi as the next AG
I will say i have ONE massive concern.
Note that all the swamp creatures hated the pick of Gaetz.
But the moment he steps down and Pam is put in.. the Swamp creatures love her...
When Lindsey Graham (a warhawk SOB if there was one) is happy with the choice... my spidey senses start tingling.
Something might be smellin' a little fishy in the state of Denmark, if you know what I mean.
