Bondi Claps Back at Bitter Dem Congresswoman in Epic Congressional Face-Off
Quote:If you watch public congressional hearings where lawmakers call in administration officials and grill them, you already know that it’s 90 percent theater and 10 percent actually accomplishing anything useful.
And that’s being generous.
To be fair, both Democrats and Republicans engage in this drama, and they often hector the witnesses with questions and then interrupt them when they attempt to answer. Nevertheless, being a conservative, I admit to finding it highly enjoyable watching Louisiana GOP Sen. John Kennedy routinely force liberals to make absolute fools out of themselves—just by quoting their own words—in front of the nation.
On Monday, it was Pam Bondi’s turn to sit in the hot seat, and hoo boy, did things get heated when an aggrieved Rep. Madeleine Dean (D-PA) tried to embarrass the attorney general at a House Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies (that’s quite the mouthful). Bondi wasn't having it, and was giving it as good as she was getting it—but she could barely contain her laughter as the congresswoman embarrassed herself.
There were a number of tense moments, but perhaps the best came after Dean called Bondi incompetent. Bondi launched a firebomb in response:
“You want to talk about incompetence? You’re the one that said Joe Biden, on PBS, was competent! You had to retract those words, so don’t talk to me, don’t insult me publicly.”
It would seem to me that she has an excellent point there.
There was plenty more heat, but another Bondi smackdown stood out to me as she stood up to the extremely harried Rep. Dean. The Pennsylvania lawmaker called the AG unprofessional and repeatedly asked her questions about legal advice she gave to President Trump. Bondi in turn said over and over that she was unable to discuss such private legal advice. But Dean would not let up.
Finally Bondi let her have it.
“I will not discuss any advice that my Office of Legal Counsel gives to the president of the United States on any matter … And talking about unprofessional, you say the president wanted the [Qatar] jet because it’s pretty?” Bondi said. “Come on. This is a congressional hearing.”
Performances like these often seem pointless to the casual observer, and I can certainly see why. Most lawmakers just want their soundbite and actually have no interest whatsoever in what the witness has to say.
But they can be awfully entertaining. To me, watching Bondi (figuratively) spank this unfortunate “Karen” into oblivion is solid theater indeed.
I now provide you with the entire exchange for your viewing pleasure:

I don't see how the PA Dem doesn't see her hypocrisy. She is rude and talks over and asks questions and answers herself and then accuses Bondi of being rude and unprofessional!
I don't know if she is just arrogant or stupid.

Democrats ask their leading questions then when you don't give them the answer they want they just talk over you or shout you down.

I haven’t liked Bondi’s performance to date…. I see her as soft…. if she keeps fighting leftist idiocy and burning them down…. I might have to change my opinion.
The audacity of that PA representative’s hypocrisy is sickening. Someone needs to go up her backside with a microscope and see what the DOJ finds.
I want the DOJ used against the Left / Democrats / Marxists / Socialists / Communists by the Trump administration the way it was used against Conservative Christian Americans by the criminals of the Biden administration.
Blood for blood.

Not much worse than the trifecta of being arrogant, stupid AND hypocritical.
I wouldn't have the patience with that nonsense that Bondi had. I'm not anything like Trump, but that trifecta I just don't have tolerance for.

she was every bit in the right ... that was my point ... it get olds when pete and repeat never ends...
the only option is tell 'em to fk off to their feces ... that's all these fkbags understand...
after that, you can revert back to fk off vs. all the other bs that is worthless drivel...

Yea, she seems to be about 30 years too old to be the next childish “squad” member.
