Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.
Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.
The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism
In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

I think that it’s bad that the Secretary of Defense is openly trashing the concept of legality regarding military operations.
Hegseth: "Maximum lethality -- not tepid legality. Violent effect, not politically correct. We're gonna raise up warriors. Not just defenders."

This is the most hysterical shit. Everyone in this administration and everyone who has "followed orders" needs to be apprehended and tried in any just world if we escape this.

Humans have human rights. It's not hard to understand this.
Just the supposed ‘paper of record’ bemoaning the fact that asylum seekers have *human* rights and may be able to enforce them. Accompanied - ultra cynically - by a photo of Human Rights lawyer, Amal Clooney, at a glamorous fundraiser. What a sly and deeply unpleasant rag The Times now is.

Begging journalists and media to publish more explainers like this. They’re not sexy or prestigious but audiences need, like, and, yes, even share them bc they’re a window into an otherwise opaque and confusing world that’s easy to caricature as the deep state
President Trump fired the commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, claiming that last week’s jobs report “was rigged." But former Labor Statistics officials say the commissioner typically doesn’t have a role in preparing the monthly jobs report.
Jobs data revisions are common. Here's how the process works.
The commissioner Trump fired over “rigged” jobs report likely didn’t have a hand in assembling the report, former BLS officials say.
