To anyone who says we shouldn't be pressuring Democratic members of congress to fight, I only have this to say - the oath they took did not say "...to protect and defend the Constitution the next time we're in the majority."

I can't think of an attorney general ever showing this much open contempt for Congress before.

Not only would most of them think this kind of conduct was beneath them, they'd have known that the Judiciary Committee chair, whatever the party, would never stand for clownish antics like this.
Bondi is now just straight up ignoring questions from Democratic members

I mean his dog lives in San Francisco and his dog walker lives in Aspen.

What else is he supposed to do?
Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

Now, Starbucks is lifting a cap on the CEO's use of a private jet to commute from California to Seattle.

It's been four years since Starbucks stores began unionizing and workers still don't have a contract.

To recap…

That’s roughly every third document on a ton of documents they thought were safe for Trump, that also sent two people to prison already to serve really long sentences for horrific crimes.

I wonder how much worse the remaining 3M documents are going to turn out to be.
More than One. Million. Times.

Pam Bondi: “There is no evidence that Trump has committed a crime”

Ted Lieu: “I believe you just lied under oath”

To be fair though, you could see how she might think it seems calm and measured compared to her boss’s behavior.
This is utterly deranged behavior from a U.S. attorney general

Seriously!

All those people struggling to pay rent, buy groceries, buy gas to get to their multiple low-paying jobs (if they still have jobs), should really just cash in their tech stock.

I don’t understand what the problem is.
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."

While the Washington Post was giving Pam Bondi a thumbs up for being "qualified" and "serious", Democracy Docket was calling her an "Election Denier."

Yeah, but when you’re actively covering up child rape and now it looks like murder as well, it’s probably easy to forget that lying under oath is a crime too.
BREAKING: Pam Bondi appears to have just committed a federal crime by lying under oath.

Ted lieu just caught her in a lie and called for her resignation live on TV.

Well, to be fair, under this regime everyone’s sole priority is to parrot the Dear Leader’s talking points and to run interference.

If the AG ends up doing something that looks like it’s part of a traditional AG’s job, it’s purely by accident and likely won’t be repeated.
Massie: "She didn't answer anything. She came here ready to talk about the Dow Jones and the Nasdaq, which seems kind of crazy to me."

If you watch the Watergate hearings, none of them even come close to being this bad.

Remember too, Watergate was about breaking into an office to steal the opposition’s campaign information.

This is about child rape. These people are fucking monsters.
I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

I’m old enough to remember when we thought Nixon was rock bottom for this country.

This administration relishes in finding new lows and dragging the rest of the country down with it.
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.

Assuming we make it through this period in our lifetimes, can we please make a point to remember that truly awful people can rise to positions of power in the country and maybe taking voting a little more seriously?

So if you're having trouble paying for groceries, medical bills, rent, etc...just revise your expectations.

You're welcome.
