I don’t know how this can be any clearer or more blatant. #PamBondi said this today. It is an astonishing brazen lie. Which means her role is to lie, gaslight and coverup crimes. She isn’t an AG, she’s the asset of the most corrupt lawless criminal enterprises in history.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

"I believe he was pardoned."
AG Bondi's response to whether or not a Jan 6th rioter who yelled "Kill 'em!" at Capitol Hill police now works for her.
The contempt by this administration for the law and basic human decency is nauseating.

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.

Pam Bondi: "Americans" 401(k)s and retirement funds are booming. That's what we should be talking about."
But sex trafficking and rape of children. Meh.
What an absolutely vile person and I wanted to use another word instead of person. A complete failure as a human being.

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."

Conservatives couldn’t stop Bad Bunny from headlining the Super Bowl. They couldn’t beat his ratings. So now they’re tattling to the FCC.

The Super Bowl has come and gone, but conservatives just can’t stop obsessing over Bad Bunny. They didn’t manage to stop him from performing, and they certainly didn’t manage to pull better ...

Elon Musk, via DOGE cuts to int'l aid, has already killed hundreds of thousands by some estimates. Looks like RFK is trying to beat him.
NEW: The F.D.A. refused to accept an application from Moderna for its mRNA flu vaccine.
Its reason: The agency did not think Moderna compared the new vaccine to one of the best flu shots available. The company spent $750M+ on a 41,000 person study.
