"At Wednesday's hearing, Bondi came under sustained fire from House Democrats over the Justice Department's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, including questions about why survivors' information was not properly redacted and why no apology had ever been issued to victims. At several points during the contentious hearing, Bondi pivoted from questioning to lash out at lawmakers, including Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), a Republican backer of efforts to release the documents, whom she accused of suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome."
"For me, and I think for a lot of observers, the low light was she was asked, Are you going to start protecting these women who were raped as young girls? Are you going to start arresting the men, the powerful and rich men who you're protecting right now, who raped these young girls?' And she responded by saying didn't talk about the raped girls, didn't talk about the rich and powerful men who were evading justice because of her"
Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski excoriated Attorney General Pam Bondi for her conduct during a House Judiciary Committee hearing about the Justice Department's handling of Jeffrey Epstein files. Bondi faced sustained Democratic criticism over improperly redacted survivor information and the absence of any apology to victims. Bondi repeatedly pivoted from answering questions to attacking lawmakers, including accusing Rep. Thomas Massie of 'Trump Derangement Syndrome' and deflecting to the stock market. Scarborough described the performance as child-like and cringe-inducing and highlighted Bondi's refusal to address protecting survivors while redirecting attention to the Dow.
