Pam Bondi is pure trash and an embarrassment to the legal profession and to what used to be a honorable institution - the DOJ.

Jayapal asks Epstein survivors in hearing room to stand and raise hands if they still haven't been able to meet with Bondi's DOJ. Every single one of them doe. Jayapal then gives Bondi an opportunity to apologize. She responds by trying to attack Jayapal and Merrick Garland but doesn't apologize.

If you saw today's headline that Gallup will stop measuring presidential approval, they did the same thing in 2018. They do it whenever Trump is president.

Guess how many Republicans demanded justice for Epstein survivors, held Bondi accountable, and did not let her use their time to personally attack Democrats?

No appointee of this administration even bothers to create the appearance of doing their job anymore, just openly serving as the president's personal apologist and attack dog. Completely illegitimate government
wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.

I think it's important to assert that the government should PRESUME you are legal until there's reason to believe you are not, and by "reason," I mean more than your skin color. f the burden of proof is on you, and not on the government, that alone is an infringement on your liberty.
Markwayne Mullin defends "show me your papers": "If you're here legally, there's nothing to hide. Most people already are walking around with a government-issued ID, meaning your Real ID or your driver's license. If you go board a train here, you gotta show your ID."

This was interesting from Swalwell, normally a very combative interviewer of Trump admin officials. I think it was an attempt to get her off her prepared talking points, and it worked.

I'm old enough to remember when the DOJ brought evidence to a grand jury and they were able to get indictments based on that evidence.

Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

This is another very important and revealing exchange. Rep. Scanlon is making a crucial point, one well worth listening to. And she does it calmly. But Trump has created a market for obnoxious, childish defiance of Congress. The Attorney General‘s response is outrageous, even impeachment-worthy.
SCANLON: Can we assume the DOJ has prepared that list of groups that are designated as 'domestic terrorist organizations'?
BONDI: I'm not going to answer it yes or no, but I know antifa is part of it
