"When running for re-election as Florida Attorney General, Pam Bondi touted her efforts to prosecute sex traffickers. "Florida ranks third nationally in calls for help in human trafficking, where young women and children are enslaved and abused. I knew we needed all hands on deck," she said in a 2016 ad that's now gone viral for all of the wrong reasons. "I'll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong," she continued. "Behind bars.""
"As Tr*mp's Attorney General, Bondi has been handed a prime opportunity to further investigate Jeffrey Epstein and the powerful men around him, who helped enable the most nefarious alleged sex trafficking ring in modern times. But rather than hold the Epstein Class accountable, she's engaged in a full-scale coverup. When testifying this week before Congress, she wouldn't even turn to face the Epstein survivors in the crowd."
Pam Bondi campaigned as Florida Attorney General on prosecuting sex traffickers and used a 2016 ad declaring Florida ranks third nationally in human trafficking and promising to put "human trafficking monsters" behind bars. As U.S. Attorney General under Trump, Bondi inherited the chance to investigate Jeffrey Epstein and his powerful associates but allegedly pursued a coverup rather than accountability. During recent congressional testimony, Bondi refused to face Epstein survivors and said, "I'm not gonna get in the gutter," when asked to apologize. Bondi also accused Representative Becca Balint of antisemitism during an exchange, though Balint is Jewish and lost a grandfather in the Holocaust.
